Midnight Meme Of The Day!

While most are liberal, two or three are leftist, not liberal. It’s important that voters start distinguishing between those terms because the primary presents them a stark choice between the two.

The second dynamic gets much less attention: financial manias arise when there is no other more productive, profitable use for capital, and these periods occur when there is an abundance of credit available to inflate the bubbles.

On Wars and Civilization
The major wars are events in which nations test the strength of their politics, culture, and economy. In the last 2500 years, there has not been a single generation (I take a generation as 60 years) in any nation that has not experienced one or more wars. The wars result in massive death and destruction and no sane person would want them, but the question is—could modern civilization have evolved if humanity had not been engaged in an endless series of wars? I think the wars have a natural role to play in human history—their purpose is to destroy the ineffective regimes and free hum... more »
AUTUMN BREAK
Just a short message. As you may have surmised by my silence, I am taking a little time off. So very weary of so much same old, same old. So tired of all the same stuff over and over and over again. Break might last maybe a day. Maybe a week. Maybe a month or more, but I doubt that long. But for the moment, just on sabbatical. The days are noticeably shorter, the morning fog hangs longer. Germs abound everywhere as the climate cools. Already Grandson (pictured below) has made his Grandmother sicker than the proverbial dog. He has figured out how to share deadly germs that laid us ... more »
TV Stations To Bring Back National Anthem
It’s about time this tradition came back. Patriotism wasn’t controversial not so long ago. American was good. Communism was bad. The Bible was true. People worked hard. Marriages stayed together. Kids got spanked. Life was good. Sadly, Patriotism in America has been, and continues to be, drooping. Nexstar Media Group, however, wants to reverse that, at least in part. The 171 Nexstar TV stations across the country are going to bring the national anthem back to the public airwaves — a place the anthem has been missing from for far too long. When television first began to spread across... more »

The Terrible Reason Why Russia Doesn't Have More Aircraft Carriers for Its Navy
*Mark Episkopos* *Security, Europe* [image: https://miro.medium.com/max/3200/1*sv8N5n5RRHxXUWeUQJCOOA.jpeg] They won't get another one anytime soon either. *Key point:* Russia does not have the money or industrial capacity to build new carriers. A coterie of new ships at Russia’s annual Navy Day Parade in Saint Petersburg reflects the rapidly changing face of the Russian Navy as it forges ahead with a far-reaching modernization program. First established in 1939 as an annual Soviet holiday to “mobilize the working masses around the construction of a Workers’ and Peasants’ Soviet... more »
Robots Firing Tank-Killer Missiles? Welcome the Future of Warfare.
*David Axe* *Security, * On Sept. 10, 2019, a Titan unmanned ground vehicle fired multiple Javelin anti-tank missiles at targets on the Army’s Redstone range in Alabama. On Sept. 10, 2019, a Titan unmanned ground vehicle fired multiple Javelin anti-tank missiles at targets on the Army’s Redstone range in Alabama. The test represented a big step for the U.S. military as it moves to acquire armed robots for high-end warfare. Of course, the QinetiQ-made Titan isn’t a “robot tank,” Sydney Freedberg wrote at Breaking Defense. From *Breaking Defense*: It does have tracks, the better... more »
Here Comes the A-10 Warthog on Steroids: New Weapons and More
*David Axe* *Security, * This old plane just won't retire. The U.S. Air Force has all but given up on retiring the A-10 Warthog close-air-support jet. Instead, the flying branch is upgrading the tough ground-attackers so they can fight and survive in high-intensity combat. The Air Force had hoped to begin retiring its 281 A-10s starting in 2015. But Congress blocked the effort. Now the A-10 is safe even as the Air Force considers retiring other plane types. “Acting Air Force Secretary Matt Donovan stoked speculation that the service will retire the A-10 after announcing that it... more »

Problem: The Air Force Doesn't Have Enough Training Facilities for Its Pacific Combat Pilots
*Michael Peck* *Security, Asia* [image: https://www.dvidshub.net/image/5552036/weapons-load-crew-quarter] How can this be fixed? *Key point*: An audit found a lack of sufficient training facilities for USINDOPACOM pilots. U.S. pilots in the Pacific can’t get realistic combat training. The reason?
