Election Recount & Fraud | Armstrong Economics

Posted on by johnbarleycorn12

The recount in Florida is expected to show nearly 3,000 votes less than before. This really highlights the entire problem with elections. If we can buy from Amazon online, we should be able to vote online in a secure manner where there is no human process of counting. Of course, that would also reduce the ability to rig elections by throwing away paper ballots to alter counts.

The Snowiest Decade | Armstrong Economics

Posted on by johnbarleycorn12

This winter is starting off colder than the last two years. My biggest concern is that all the nonsense about Global Warming is preventing us from preparing for the real trend – Global Cooling. Even in the Bible, there is the story about Joseph warning the Pharaoh that there would be 7 years of plenty followed by 7 years of famine. During these periods of Global Cooling, this is when disease increases because people are suffering during a famine. What we should be doing is being to create a strategic grain reserve as they use to do with oil. But these people who keep up the nonsense about global Warming are putting society at risk from famine. Perhaps that is what they really want to happen by reducing the population.

November 21st, 2018 Pi Target | Armstrong Economics

Posted on by johnbarleycorn12

There are so many things happening in the political world it is next to impossible to figure out what is going to be the focal point for the Pi target since perhaps it could be a combination. The lastest hat being thrown into the ring is the European Commission is planning to enter their sanctions against Italy. As it stands currently, they have proposed disciplining Italy under EU fiscal rules on November 21st, 2018, unless the country’s government agrees to change its draft budget plan according to EU dictates. This could set in motion a drop in Italian debt which may force the ECB to buy more Italian debt or stand back and watch rates go crazy. This may also be the starting point of sending Italy into an exit position from the EU. In the weeks and months from now, we will be able to see that this was the turning point if this takes place.

100 Years On: World War I Ends, and Endless War Begins – The Imaginative Conservative

Posted on by johnbarleycorn12

On November 11, more than on any other day, we ought to remind ourselves that while some wars need to be fought, most don’t. We need to remember the horrors of World War I, and we need to remember the price young men and women pay whenever we allow ourselves to be duped into another needless conflict… (essay by Joseph Mussomeli)

The Return of Storytelling in a Digital Age – The Imaginative Conservative

Posted on by johnbarleycorn12

Podcast stories, like reading, have the advantage of engaging the audience’s imagination. And lest the technophobes among us decry the dominance of gadgets, rather than the gadgetry taking us into a brave new world, the technology is actually allowing us to participate in a much older form of literature: storytelling… (essay by Dwight Longenecker)

It is a shame there is no collective outrage over this. One journalist gets killed and the world is on fire. Our priorities are askew.
