Government transfers provide 90% of income for bottom percentile
Norma, Collecting My Thoughts - 4 hours ago
This should give you pause. "As government transfer payments to low-income households exploded, their labor-force participation collapsed and the percentage of income in the bottom quintile coming from government payments rose above 90%." People experiencing income in the bottom fifth of the US population get 90% of their income from the government. Think about that. And while you're complaining about greedy rich people, remember who supplies the transfers. "Americans pay $4.4 trillion a year in federal, state and local taxes. Households in the top two earned-income quintiles pay 82...

What happened to Flatten the Curve?
Norma, Collecting My Thoughts - 4 hours ago
"Whereas lockdowns were originally sold as a short-term measure to “flatten the curve” and avoid overwhelming the medical system, they have now become the knee-jerk policy response for politicians whenever case numbers so much as inch upwards." Since they've been ineffective (notice the number of people who have died) and have had consequences more deadly than the virus the lockdown was suppose to control, why do we continue in this mindless behavior of accepting total government control (joined at the hip with the power of Big Tech)? Huxley noted in *Brave New World* that mass star...

“Vaccines are the leading cause of coincidences.” That is a meme going around on Twitter. One family is circumventing the inevitable propaganda by stating the facts on their loved one’s obituary. Ms. Jeanie Marie Evans received the first dose of the experimental mRNA shots against COVID-19 yesterday, according to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE). She received the shot in Jefferson County, Kansas. Ms. Evans immediately suffered anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction, during the 15-minute waiting period after the experimental shot.

California Foster Parents Being Asked to Take in “26 or more” Migrant Children from the Border – “I Consider it Human Trafficking”
AdminM, Medical Kidnap - 5 hours ago
The mass sex trafficking of children into the United States is now happening in the open in full view of the public, and no one seems to have the will or power to step in and stop it. One has to wonder if the United States has now become the most morally degenerate country on the face of the earth? Yesterday, the Daily Mail interviewed California foster parents Travis and Sharla Kall, and they said that the Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) of California's Department of Social Services that oversees foster home and care licensing, had asked them to take in "26 or more" child...
When to blame?

This comment by Arthur Schopenhauer raises some interesting questions: If a person is stupid, we excuse him by saying that he cannot help it; but if we attempted to excuse in precisely the same way the person who is bad, we should be laughed at.

Hwasong: North Korea's Three Most Powerful Nuclear Missiles

*Mark Episkopos* *Hwasong Missiles, Asia* This is what three of North Korea’s most powerful ICBM models—the Hwasong 14, 15, and 16—are capable of doing. “The United States and its Asian allies regard North Korea as a grave security threat,” opened a recent Council on Foreign Relations report on the DPRK’s military capabilities. These concerns are not entirely misplaced; North Korea is believed to own a stockpile of around sixty nuclear weapons, including a powerful and steadily growing arsenal of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM’s). This is what three of North Korea’s m...

The third, NGC 6559, is above M8, separated from the larger nebula by a dark dust lane. All three are stellar nurseries about five thousand light-years or so distant.

"The eternal silence of infinite spaces frightens me. Why now rather than then? Who has put me here? By whose order and direction have this place and time have been ascribed to me? We travel in a vast sphere, always drifting in the uncertain, pulled from one side to another. Whenever we find a fixed point to attach and to fasten ourselves, it shifts and leaves us; and if we follow it, it eludes our grasp, slips past us, and vanishes for ever. Nothing stays for us. This is our natural condition, most contrary to our inclination; we burn with desires to find solid ground and an ultim...
