The Spend Thrift Candidate!!

Now that Trump has become a proven success in the realm of politics he will attempt to catapult his spending wisely and use it as leverage to instigate the sense of Business Thrift.

Hillary will, in turn combat Trump through the channels she has always used. Trump will use this against her and point to her campaign being "bought". Hilary will not be able to say anything, because she is on the train that  cannot speak negatively about him. Trump will go very far with this, only to soon notice, that he is solely focused on a prize. That's right, making more money, for the United States, but not much else. He will sneer at the thought that people had the foresight to think of this ahead of the curve.

This is the conundrum. The only people who can see the danger are those who are on sound financial footing. What do I mean by this,simply put,  is that the bank accounts upholds a certain level of intellectualism. That is right, intellectualism is being held captive by rich people. Why? Well if necessary they can spend year sitting, reading, contemplating. That is not the problem however. Personal Growth is never something that should be discouraged. It is the like mindedness and thresholds of opinion, propped by a dumb tolerance for the nature of crookedness that should be heavily frowned upon.

This is where the Asian make economic headway. Their antics are tolerated. They manage to build tawdry glass building,condominiums,  "communities" as if it was the old country coming to save the day. This is a false assumption. The Asians are not here to build anything lasting, they can do that in Singapore. Here they are on the take. Some of them stay, but most go back to the country of origin. The Japanese have been doing good business with us for Decades, however, even they would never dream of bringing the depths of Tokyo to Los Angeles, for example. No those things stay where they are.

The economic battle with China is bound to veer off on some tangent. Hopefully not before the Election, because Trump  will capitalize on this through Tunnel Vision upheaval. Trump should not be treated poorly in the election cycle, or at the convention. He should be allowed to look presidential and he should be allowed to speak his mind. It will make for a great show and give the Clintons what they always wanted, a clean fight.

This will make for cohesion in Washington, even if all the incumbents steadfastly stay in their seats ready to pounce on the Clinton's. If the Sanders campaign is serious, they will need to find people who can get elected at the congressional level, in two years.

It is what we called in the field of Journalism a time of deep contemplation. With what appears to be dark days, and certain disaster, comes  a sense of great relief. Relief that can only be justified by a reward, reward for tolerating the political antics of previous decades.

Not the Poor!!

People speak of the 1%, then they complain of  a shrinking middle class. Yet no one blames poverty and their shameless propensity to shame and bully middle class people. That's right, growing up poor entitles you to make life less desirable for others. Directing their anger to the soft middle class. I think of that Kinks Song- Where the poor kids are threatening to beat up Santa Claus, if he does not give them money.  Yet the  little rich boys,  they are often given a free pass, to not be bothered. The rest of us have to live with the stern warning that we will be their underlings if we "*&#!" up, or worse yet quit our jobs.

A corrupt school system helps lead things along, forcing them to learn things "from the streets".

In the end it is a choice, to not fall into the trap of poverty or to choose to move away from it. It starts with schools that offer fair shots to all students. The sad nature of schooling is that the best and brightest do not belong to the richest group.They are in the middle, and many are in the poor. What happens is select kids from the realm of the poor are recognized and propelled, if not to intimidate and discourage those who have propensity to think a little. Moreover design of curriculum supports wealthier, so they can be star students too, with less effort but all the recognition. This does not serve well on merit. What ends up happening is droves of Asian students fight through this quagmire and become lawyers, doctors and engineers. Which is a hard fought testament of perseverance. The wealthy kids go with the flow, get the grades and settle into their jobs hand tailored for them. Some poor kids make it with crushing debt , and in between, people are scratching their heads with nothing but contempt for the system. 

The bottom line is that people who are supposed to be successful are burdened with shame, failure, and of course "a failed economy." It is all about keeping your job now, lest you become less than the poor people, because you never were one of them. It is also about Hollywood, and product, and things to be consumed.

Few people notice prices have going up despite the financial system failing which should have checked prices. Fewer people notice that poor people go to Wal-mart and buy the same products as the rest of us, living day to day without knowing where their next meal will be coming from, probably the dollar menu at the McDonalds near the entrance of the superstore
.

Poverty and its vices is an  American tradition brought from the Political Machines of New York Chicago, the history of the South. African Americans have a stigma attached to success, along with the Uncle Tom Attitude. Meanwhile, bad behavior and unproductiveness is rewarded. This is not the case for hispanics. They have single handedly purchased South Central and made many thriving neighborhoods. More and more hispanics are graduating college and landing successful jobs. However corruption is rampant in many communities, and there is a service mentality ingrained into the culture.

It is not a good idea to point fingers. Yet the truth is that some people want it this way. I assume it is the insecure rich who want to even the playing field. Either way it is a significant problem, dragging the country down. It has a root in ignorance and is spreading and stalling the strengths of our country.  To fight it we have to stop things from happening. The schools from churning out nonsense, the predatory job market docking wages and extending hours, and of course the cultural feces that uses poverty as a springboard, and ignorance as a fuel gauge.

 There is a mad man running on the loose saying he will fix things. Meanwhile Hillary is coming up slowly, insulting the Koch brothers, as if not for Trump she would not be on their Yacht accepting checks. If she wins she will steer the ship in some awkward direction, thanks to Bernie Sanders moving her away from her comfort zone. It will be a continuity of what is happening and a show of appeasement, yet not at full force, because both her and her husband are reaching their Golden Years. If Trump wins, god help us. The planet is doomed, and he will be picking fights with whoever chooses to squabble He will be fixing the schools however, and the above problems will be solved. What's a nuclear holocaust when your country is back on track!!!

 

The Way We Were

The Way We Were

The unhinging of the republican party has them on the heels of voting graft victory. This is the time to buckle down, and to hell with it all, we will get this Golden Goose. In essence it is the zero hour, and Trump has nestled himself into the thick of it. He gets to see what will happen, certain people, including myself will look out for him, even if we would not vote for him come a cold day in hell. 

That is why I do not get to go to Wisconsin. Journalists of all shapes and sizes get to go, and observe first-hand, but I, I have to stay here and hope that my "salt worth" will get me into a rally in California, which may finally have a chance to decide something, not that it means a healthy political turn by any means.

I hope Trump Wins the Nomination, and I hope dearly that he loses in the General Election. The truth is risk, risk over Bush,  over every corrupt politician ever elected, Ted Cruz, or even if it means real change in political system.

What are the reasons for taking a risk? 

For what reasons:

First, he is rich attacking the rich. Second he is of Billionaire stock, you know the kind that can take the money and leave it. Third, he has that Star in the bag, . you know the one that is covetous.

Here is where the blame game starts. The game where scapegoats are manufactured, I stopped following politics circa 2006. A glaring mistake, because here, here a man must decide if he likes the war or not. I did not make my decision, therefore I was sort of a Cowboy Hamlet, tragic to the tune of Maybe he is not a winner. I tried following the John Kerry loss of "not any better." I was upset at the facade. Little did I know that billionaire clubmaking , lets in the husband. 

I am back,  I guess if spin is not in my blood I have no business in the core, the "press core"?.  It is back to basics now, fragmented media, false promises, pop up children's book violations, of rights that is, throw in some earnesty, forced beatings, and some nightlife.

The presidency fits better with Bernie than anybody else. He is a nice Jewish Boy who has stood his idealist ground, what more could you ask for.  I do not think he is a communist, much  more than I think of Trump as no longer a capitalist, but it is still there, to embrace

That brings us to the other side. That's right Ted Cruz. At his most dangerous, but only because Trump put the truth out on the table.  Cruz is like the Armenians of Glendale. Glendale in good nature, welcomed the starving armenians into their community, this was in 1982, whereas the last "starving armenian" was sighted, circa 1917. Similarly Texas, welcomed Ted Cruz in the 90's hoping it would up their Southern Status.

Let's talk about Arkansas, and Hillary Clinton, still making love to the people, and trying real hard to pave her own way. Yet a Trump 's Hollywood past has put her into a second best option. I am looking out for Trump, but not in the idealist, fight the power sense of the word, no it is more of the sense of not leaving him in the cold.

 He wants to go down in a books as turning the course of doctored election, made it so that the powers did not get their clutches on the last remnants of life as we know it, but if he's the man to do it we are in dire trouble, better someone take it from him, just have to hope that the American People...

Well Terrorist Scrofa is what they bet on. They bet that we would put ourselves in a position that would allow them to retaliate with their eyes closed.  So I think the bet is closed. Then again, action takes a whole knew meaning with the dirty swine running around loose and happy.
People like Linsey Graham want that. They want the Swine to live amongst us. It will erase the fact that they could not figure until it was too late. They assume that the course is always "going to war." despite the surroundings, and that if "War is Hell" then the distinction between coming and going in garb of civilization is what we really need. As if dirt and swine, are equivaent to the amazing dessert.. I caught him at the World Affairs council, whispering sweet nothings while he was attempting war, and I was on the enemies side. If he want to bring Arabia to the mojave he should think about the Lizards, but he does not figue
I would give him credit if he would only admit the truth? Did he lower the bar? But he thinks he has a time stamp on both the past and the future. So, in essence he thinks that he can say "You'll never work in this town again!"
