Venezuela Economic Crisis | Democratic Socialism | Hugo Chavez

Venezuela Economic Crisis | Democratic Socialism | Hugo Chavez:

"It is yet another ‘miracle of socialism’ that a country with the world’s largest oil reserves can go almost broke. Venezuela’s total oil reserves stand at an estimated 296.5 billion barrels, which is higher than Saudi Arabia’s 265.4 billion barrels. But the cash-strapped country is struggling to get investments and technical expertise to convert its oil reserves into revenue.

Socialist leader Hugo Chávez got elected as country’s President in 1999 and introduced the ideology of “Socialism of the 21st Century”. Chávez enacted a new constitution, taking control of the state and the economy to carry out his “socialist revolution”.

Chávez, and later his protégé Nicolás Maduro, managed to win consecutive elections largely due to their policies of social redistribution — but as it always happens — they have finally run out of other people’s money. British newspaper Financial Times reports:"

8 Iranian missile launches since nuke deal signed, expert tells US Congress

8 Iranian missile launches since nuke deal signed, expert tells US Congress | The Times of Israel
"In the 10 months since the Iran nuclear agreement was signed, the Islamic Republic has increased the frequency of its ballistic missile testing, according to researcher Michael Elleman, who testified before a US senatorial committee this week.
...investigating the effects of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the official name for the Iran nuclear deal signed in July 2015.
Since then, Iran’s ballistic missile program has become a central issue in the debate surrounding the nuclear deal, with opponents of the agreement saying test launches violate the terms of the JCPOA, while proponents argue missile tests are “inconsistent” with United Nations resolutions but not necessarily illegal.
According to the UN decision, “Iran is called upon not to undertake any activity related to ballistic missiles designed to be capable of delivering nuclear weapons, including launches using such ballistic missile technology,” until October 2023.
As they’re only “called upon not to” test missiles, but not expressly forbidden from doing so, Iran has used that loophole to increase its testing with impunity.
“[The US has] engaged in a lot of hue and cry over Iran’s missile capabilities, but they should know that this ballyhoo does not have any influence and they cannot do a damn thing,” Iranian supreme leader Ali Khamenei said this week.
According to Elleman, in the almost year following the signing of the agreement and the removal of sanctions, Iran has performed at least eight missile tests — three in 2015 and five thus far in 2016..."

If You Don't Want To Get nuked Don't Bomb Pearl Harbor

If You Don't Want To Get nuked Don't Bomb Pearl Harbor:
President Obama has kowtowed to the Japanese and Western liberals by promising at the site of the Hiroshima nuclear bomb “we shall not repeat the evil.”
People who agree with this sentiment ought to do two things.

First they should read the essay – Thank God for the Atom Bomb – war historian Paul Fussell wrote on how he felt when, as a 21-year-old second lieutenant in the US army, he and his comrades heard the news that Japan had been nuclear bombed into surrender.
“When we learned to our astonishment that we would not be obliged in a few months to rush up the beaches near Tokyo assault-firing while being machine-gunned, mortared, and shelled, for all the practiced phlegm of our tough facades we broke down and cried with relief and joy. We were going to live.”
Second, they should familiarize themselves with which country it was started this particular war; which country fought it with such sadistic determination that they would frequently torture and bayonet prisoners – even the wounded, in hospitals they’d over-run and would almost always refuse to surrender themselves, making any assault on territory they held more than usually costly in allied lives.
If ever the US finds itself in such circumstances again, let us pray that the president it has at the time is nothing like Barack Obama.

Sgt. Alicia White and Officer William Porter filed suit on May 2, according to court documents obtained by The Baltimore Sun. They allege in the suit Mosby publicly made false claims about the officers at a press conference May 1, 2015, and that the harsh charges and Mosby’s tough rhetoric after Gray’s death were to keep the peace at their expense after riots ravaged the city."

MSNBC's Brian Williams Says US Dropped Atomic Bomb 'In Anger'

MSNBC's Brian Williams Says US Dropped Atomic Bomb 'In Anger':

"MSNBC breaking news host Brian Williams once again is finding his on-air comments coming under scrutiny, after characterizing the United States’ use of the atomic bomb against Japan as being “in anger.”

The former NBC Nightly News anchor was responding to a point being made by his colleague, Andrea Mitchell, who was praising former Sens. Dick Lugar and Sam Nunn for their work on nuclear non-proliferation.

“[T]hat is still the threat that people worry about that this material will fall into the wrong hands,” said Williams. “If people have found the U.S. to be preachy in the years since Hiroshima and Nagasaki about the use of nuclear weapons, it’s because we’re the only nation to have used them in anger.”

"Presumed Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is in more hot water now than ever with the State Department publicly criticizing her for not following procedure and requesting to use her personal server for classified transmissions. In fact, the State Department went as far as to say it would not have given permission even if she had asked for it.

Now, the fact that her email server was hacked showed another security threat, and subsequently many have begun calling for Hillary to drop out of the presidential race."

The car is beautiful, today. Orange paint, white leather interior, big brown steering wheel straight out of the 1970s. The demolished front end has been restored, leaving no trace of the mayhem this Dodge Challenger caused, the terror it struck at the 1971 Indianapolis 500.

It sits today in a warehouse in Fishers, low to the ground but long, sleek, its hood jutting over the grill like the overbite of a tiger shark.

This is the most notorious pace car in the history of the Indianapolis 500.

Well, it almost killed someone...

"Moments after he earned pole position for the 100th Indy 500, and once he'd climbed from the car, the first person James Hinchcliffe sought out was Ron Catt.
The two locked in a strong, reaffirming hug (above), and given where they were a year and a week ago, the firm embrace made sense.
Wind the clock back to this time in 2015 and Hinchcliffe was in a hospital undergoing medical procedures to save his life. 
Catt, his crew chief, was staring at the bloody, tattered remains of Hinchcliffe's No. 5 Arrow Electronics Honda, desperately trying to make sense of the crash that nearly ended in tragedy. Through the ordeal, Catt's calm and warm demeanor helped keep the team together as Hinchcliffe healed..."

The Problem of the Cities

The Problem of the Cities - Online Library of Law & Liberty
"Ever since people began migrating in large numbers from America’s rural areas to its urban areas  in the 19th century, cities have presented unique challenges: sanitation, housing, transportation, education, public safety, and fire protection, to name just a few.
...The rapid growth of urban areas, increased population density, and a massive influx of immigrants...hastened the rise of municipal political machines (such as Tammany Hall in New York City), official corruption, labor unrest, and the demographic diversity that continues to this day.
Even though Americans’ standard of living generally improved during industrialization...
Members of ethnic minorities disproportionately reside in U.S. cities, and their local governments are disproportionately (in fact more or less exclusively) in the hands of the Democratic Party. 
Cities expend substantial taxpayer resources to try to address poverty, crime, air pollution, congestion, substandard housing, homelessness, and the education of non-English speaking students, all of which are not as prevalent in suburban and rural areas.
Cities tend to have large numbers of unionized public employees, high (and rising) taxes and debt (including unfunded pension liabilities), and intrusive regulations.
For a variety of reasons, urban residents favor liberal policies—and elect liberals to office—to a greater degree than suburban and rural voters.
Some major American cities, such as Detroit, have become dysfunctional fiefdoms, forced into bankruptcy.
Proponents of classical liberalism generally favor limited government and free market solutions, but these views do not prevail in most American cities..."

‘That’s Incredible!’: Franklin Graham Blasts Elementary School Principal’s Letter to Teachers Making Transgender Pronoun Demand | TheBlaze.com

‘That’s Incredible!’: Franklin Graham Blasts Elementary School Principal’s Letter to Teachers Making Transgender Pronoun Demand | TheBlaze.com:

"Evangelist Franklin Graham spoke out against an Oregon school district’s recent decision to strike a settlement with a transgender teacher — an agreement that included a $60,000 payout for emotional damages and other related expenses, and a pledge to enact transgender employee guidelines.

Graham specifically took aim at an email sent by Hall Elementary School Principal Heidi Lasher that reportedly implored teachers who work with Leo Soell — the transgender fifth-grade teacher at the center of the dispute — to use the “correct name and pronouns” when addressing transgendered individuals."

There is no significant scientifically established correlation between human activity and the warming of the earth's climate.

Climategate in Review:
"The bottom line is simple:
There is no significant scientifically established correlation between human activity and the warming of the earth's climate.
The Climategate scandal caused independent scientists and laymen around the globe to take a much closer look at the information that was being presented in support of Anthropogenic (i.e., man-made) Global Warming (AGW), and the overwhelming conclusion was that the there was no credible and conclusive evidence to support the hypothesis. 
And it was further shown that the scenarios predicting that the planet was nearing the tipping point for a series of catastrophic climate disasters, was totally invalidated by an examination of the facts, as well as a review of the earth's climate history. 
What came to light during this investigation was the following:
Climate science research is almost exclusively funded by governments around the world.
Between 1989-2009, the U.S. government alone spent $79 billion.
To keep the money flowing, it was necessary to have a compelling "story" of a pending apocalypse to justify that sort of investment.
The narrative of global Armageddon became the researchers' only fixed "fact", with all scientific data being freely manipulated as necessary in order to fit that predetermined scenario.
Politicians with a totalitarian bent saw the regulation of carbon as a potent tool for generating massive new tax revenues and for redistributing the world's wealth, while at the same time, justifying the expansion of regulatory control over businesses and the personal activities of all citizens.
Consequently, a symbiotic relationship was established between the politicians who handsomely funded the research, and the climate scientists, who fabricated a useful justification for government intervention..."

Socialism-----Imagine No Possessions, Imagine Venezuela

Imagine No Possessions, Imagine Venezuela:
Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man

You probably recognize these words, from John Lennon’s song “Imagine.”

This is considered an innocuous statement of youthful idealism, suitable for all audiences. I last heard it a few days ago, sung by a group of wholesome middle-school girls at my kids’ school. 
The song is encouraged by adults as a way of showing off your earnest idealism and your willingness to keep an open mind to new ideas. 
But its real meaning is an indifference to suffering and a determination to close off your mind to facts that undermine your political prejudices. 
About the same time I was listening to those girls sing “Imagine,” this item came across my news feed:

By morning, three newborns were already dead. The day had begun with the usual hazards: chronic shortages of antibiotics, intravenous solutions, even food. Then a blackout swept over the city, shutting down the respirators in the maternity ward. Doctors kept ailing infants alive by pumping air into their lungs by hand for hours. By nightfall, four more newborns had died. “The death of a baby is our daily bread,” said Dr. Osleidy Camejo, a surgeon in the nation’s capital, Caracas, referring to the toll from Venezuela’s collapsing hospitals.

Venezuela has some of the world’s largest supplies of oil, with more proven oil reserves than Saudi Arabia. But about 15 years ago, the late president Hugo Chavez set out to impose a socialist revolution, making a particular point about his great munificence in providing free health care for everyone. 
...It began by imagining no possessions. Private property and private businesses and private profit were supposedly the source of everyone’s problems, so the Venezuelan government set out to get rid of them, with Chavez issuing a notorious set of 49 decrees in 2001 that gave him vast power over the economy. He used this power to seize private factories and expropriate foreign owners of Venezuelan firms—ensuring that no foreign investors would want to put a single dollar into the country for the foreseeable future.

All of it reads like a vast experiment designed to find out what happens to an economy when you put it under the control of crazy people.

A clueless 2009 article in a socialist magazine specifically hailed Chavez’s interventions in agriculture, quoting his assurance that “There is a food crisis in the world, but Venezuela is not going to fall into that crisis. You can be sure of that. Actually, we are going to help other nations who are facing this crisis.” The socialist reforms included redistribution of land, the nationalization of whole sections of the agriculture sector, the formation of socialist agricultural “cooperatives,” generous subsidies and price supports, and the creation of a vast chain of government-subsidized, government-run grocery stores.
...So did this brave experiment in socialism result in “no need for greed or hunger”? Did it bring about “a brotherhood of man”?
Not exactly.

Lootings are becoming a common occurrence in Venezuela, as the country’s food shortage resulted in yet another reported incident of violence in a supermarket—this time in the Luvebras Automarket located in the La Florida Province of Caracas. Videos posted to social media showed desperate people falling over each other trying to get bags of rice. One user claimed the looting occurred because it is difficult to get cereal, and so people ‘broke down the doors and damaged infrastructure.’

Elsewhere, looters attacked a corn warehouse after employees began giving out small amounts of grain at the gates, but there wasn’t enough to go around.

‘There’s no rice, no pasta, no flour,’ resident Glerimar Yohan told La Costa, ‘only hunger.’ Yohan, like the approximately 50 other people asking employees to give her a ‘little bit’ of corn to feed her children for breakfast, was turned away.

Before you judge Venezuela’s looters, consider what you would do if your children were starving.

So much for “no hunger.” What about the “brotherhood of man”? Not only is looting soaring in Venezuela, but so are all forms of crime. It has gotten so far out of control that mobs of vigilantes are burning people alive in the streets over petty thefts. It turns out then when people are starving, there’s not a lot of brotherhood. Instead, they fight like dogs over a bone.

Before you judge Venezuela’s looters, consider what you would do if your children were starving.

Now for the part about “no greed.” If there’s one thing the history of socialism teaches us, it’s that government officials can always find a way to live like kings while the people starve. So in Venezuela we see rampant corruption, with Hugo Chavez’s daughter amassing a fortuneestimated in the billions.

There’s a lot of other baggage that comes with “idealistic” worldview of socialism. John Lennon also asked us to “imagine there’s no heaven” and “no religion.”

Cambridge Professor Says 'Madness' Of Fighting Global Warming Will Impoverish Everyone

Cambridge Professor Says 'Madness' Of Fighting Global Warming Will Impoverish Everyone - Technocracy News:
"TN Note: Technocracy is an energy-based, micro-managed system of total control over all production and all consumption.
Notably, Technocrats live in a fairy-land world that is devoid of economists.
They promise that they are going to ‘save the world’ but in fact, they are destroying the world.
This madness must be confronted and stopped before they push the world into total oblivion.
Cambridge University electrical engineering professor Dr. M.J. Kelly concluded in a peer-reviewed journal article that attempts to fight global warming with green energy will impoverish the world.
The Monday article found reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions enough to actually slow global warming in a measurable way simply isn’t possible without significantly reducing standards of living by plunging most of the world into poverty, destitution and starvation.
“Over the last 200 years, fossil fuels have provided the route out of grinding poverty for many people in the world,” states the article.
“This trend is certain to continue for at least the next 20 years based on the technologies of scale that are available today.
A rapid decarbonization is simply impossible over the next 20 years unless the trend of a growing number who succeed to improve their lot is stalled by rich and middle class people downgrading their own standard of living.”
The article found current CO2 emissions aren’t falling rapidly enough to slow global warming largely because most public policy has focused exclusively on developing wind and solar power, which may actually increase emissions. Continued support for wind, solar and other forms of green energy like biofuel “represents total madness” as these energy systems don’t justify the massive costs of the subsidies required to support them..."

When the public is disarmed-----Dad And Son Are Seconds From Assassination By ISIS... Then Quiet Click Half-Mile Away Happens

Dad And Son Are Seconds From Assassination By ISIS... Then Quiet Click Half-Mile Away Happens:
"The savages in the Islamic State group had picked a father and his eight-year-old son to be sacrifices in their sick execution game. 
However, a member of the British Special Air Service made sure that they would be safe in the most unlikely of ways.
According to Express.com, the execution was about to occur after Islamic State group forces marched into a Syrian town along the Turkish border. Seeking to “cleanse” the town, they were executing any remaining Shiite residents.
The father and his son were picked out because they refused to denounce their faith. However, an Iraqi spy had tipped off the Special Air Service, and the elite British military force had fixed a sniper on the attempted assassination
“Through binoculars, the soldiers could see that the crowd were terrified and many were in tears,” a source said of the execution site.
The leader of the Islamic State contingent, flanked by several guards with AK-47s,  then called for the father and son to be brought before him.
“A tall bearded man emerged and drew a long knife,” the source continued.
“He began addressing the crowd and slapping the father and his son around the head and kicking them onto the floor.”
That’s when the SAS sniper took action (H/T Mad World News).
“The ISIS thug who was about to decapitate the father was shot in the head and collapsed,” the eyewitness said.
“Everyone just stared in confusion.
“The sniper then dispatched the two henchmen with single shots — three kills with three bullets. It was a good day’s work.”
Indeed it was.
While President Barack Obama has been unwilling to commit U.S. ground forces to the fight against the radical barbarians of the Islamic State group, at least our allies are willing to do what needs to be done.
If only we had American special operations troops over there who could end these savages’ reign of terror."

"Not since those dark days of Watergate, has an administration attempted to circumvent, cover-up or whitewash its misdeeds as obviously as this administration. Even Richard Nixon had enough of whatever ethics he had left to resign the presidency for the good of the country.

Not so with this dismal cast of characters so corrupt that even Federal Judge Andrew S.

Here's The 'Milk List' For The 100th Running Of The Indy 500
The Indianapolis 500 doesn’t greet winners with a big bottle of champagne as most races do. 
They hand the winner an ice cold bottle of milk.
This creates a curious artifact every year: a list of driver’s milk preferences.
Who wants the whole experience?
Who’d rather water it down?
Behold!
Here’s this year’s list.
According to American Dairy Association Indiana, 17 drivers requested whole milk this year, with two-percent being the next most popular at 13 requests.
The watered-down fat-free stuff may sound a little easier to stomach after being in a hot race car, but only three drivers requested it.
The driver gets the most attention, however, a rookie milk man also delivers commemorative bottles of milk to the winning car’s chief mechanic and team owner.
