If there was the slightest thing I could do about any of it, I'd have done it decades ago.

I vote. Speak out. Defy unlawful mandates. Educate myself and offer to educate others.

I have absolutely no power or influence over this in any legal manner.

This is clearly too down WEF playbook. Build Back Better is another way or saying Great Reset. I guess the objective from my perch is to destroy western societies first and then build back better in the image of the elites. Red states can’t fall. If they do, we will all be living in an Orwellian dystopia

It starts with a lie and then builds from there. No one elected this demented, pedophilic, pathological, ice cream-eating, China indebted clown to anything.

They should really be wearing ski masks or nylon stockings over the face during a heist.

"...when the Marxists say, 'Well, that wasn’t real Marxism', what it really means, and I thought about this for a long time, it’s the most arrogant possible statement anyone could ever make.

It means, 'If I would have been in Stalin’s position, I would have ushered in the damn utopia instead of the genocidal massacres. Because, I understand the doctrine of Marxism and everything about me is good.'

Well, think again sunshine! You don’t understand it. You don’t understand it, and you are not that good. And, if the power was in your hands, assuming you had the competence, which you don’t, you wouldn’t have done any better, and even if you had, there would have been someone else waiting right behind you to shoot you the first time you actually tried to do anything good. And that is what happened to all the old guard who ran the damn Revolution. Stalin rounded them all up and shot them, along with their families and millions of other people.

So, even if you do happen to be that Avatar of moral purity that you claim implicitly, the probability that you’d act out your goodness in relationship to those possessed by your ideology is zero."

—Jordan Peterson on the "it wasn't real communism" argument

Not really sure what more I can do. As a physician I have tried to speak with people locally other physicians etc. and even the ones that seem two see what I am saying will not speak out. It’s like they vaccinated and now they don’t want to admit they were wrong.

Good news: This insanity will end very soon and humanity will establish a stable equilibrium with nature that will persist for millenia

Bad news: We have to go through absolute hell first

humpty dumpty said "words mean exactly what i say they mean"......

"bi partisan" part of the infrastructure bill is to link it to the 3.5T 'destroy american capitalism' reconciliation (flim flam names) bill.

3.5t more federal (on top of $5t squandered on dumping trump lock downs) squandering worsened by expropriative tax increase (that will not raise a fraction of the money they are wasting) is designed to destroy the private sector, make the middle class poor and sow totalitarian liberalism, aka a soviet style with massive election fraud.

who accepts the fake ballots and counts the votes......

the only thing saving the us dollar is euro socialism, and xi's central planning, are so broke it makes the us' totalitrian liberalism seem worth lending to.

I'm sure that giving subsidies...er I mean welfare....to journalists in this infrastructure bill will lead to much higher journalism. Afterall, it isn't like if you subsidize something you get more of it.

Hey bad cat! I know you visit Park City occasionally. If you are so inclined, the Utah legislature is having a public meeting to discuss the federal mandates October 4th. It will also be available online, but I think having as many citizens as possible writing the elected officials will help get our message across.

Well put!! I have a hypothesis that a lot of the labor force has decided to go under ground. In a traditional W-2 job, compensation can be garnished. If someone has not paid their rent for 18 months, and/or they are anticipating judgements to be filed against themselves in a collection effort, then they will seek cash employment in an effort to delay and hinder collection. Going to be hard to build back anything.

"gerontocracy of grifters" :)

Yes...Biden, Pelosi, etc., are fossils...but the build back better crowd is not.

Where...who...does this messaging come from? Does anyone really believe this is a global game of copycat?

How in the hell can the dystopian madness going on be called socialism? Its straight up collusion of corrupt capitalists and corrupt politicians ie fascism.

Calling it the Build Back Better bill was really an extra kick in the nuts because they know they can.

I would add "incompetent." A crew of geriatric, mendacious, liars with exactly zero interest in the welfare of the people they rule over. Incompetence can go a long way toward mitigating the long terms costs of this project, but, of course, the short term costs willbe staggering.
