Miscellaneous Thoughts Part 23

• Raising taxes is the last refuge of the unimaginative and lazy.
• If the gov’t assigns you a job then you cannot quit it unless you get permission from the state (not going to happen--they are not going to admit they messed up) because you did not select it in the first place.
• If the gov’t assigns you a mate (arranged marriage) then you cannot get a divorce unless you get permission from the state.
• During a crises the worst thing you can do is overreact and under think.
• The Left is against the death penalty if the person being executed is a woman or a minority, or possible a Left elite.
• There’s a saying that like this: Lead, follow or get out the way. The Left elite think they can lead but can’t, they don’t want to follow (beneath their dignity), and they are always in the way causing trouble.
• Progressivism: Scary bad. Real scary bad.
• Sometimes I think republican candidates for POTUS should wear a wrist bracelet that has these initials on it: WWRD. WWRD stands for What Would Reagan (or Ronnie) Do.
• If Fort Knox has very little gold in it that maybe enough of a tipping point to create the “inside-out” part of Van Jones sinister triad.
• Herman Cain’s 9-9-9 tax plan is not bad, but I would make two changes. The national sales tax should be 1% and food and drinks should be exempted from the national sales tax. My only concern is that the rates would be hiked up by Congress especially by the Left.
