Comment: I have read two book on the FAIR TAX. There are a few more. There are many issues with the concept. Least of which is it will reguire no IRS or other agency to audit or verify what is collected.  Let alone verify who is getting the rebates. The Fair Tax book use the idea there would be no reason for cheating on your reporting.  Really no cheating or other deception by anyone.  We can just trust everyone to be 100% truthful. 

The big dollars from income taxes come from corporations and they will continue to have lots of questionable deductions that the Fair tax books seem to ignore.  The basic concept of the Fair Tax is simple for those who only have income from wages. When you toss in investments and owner operated business the fog appears to surround what is going to be considered taxable income.   

Plus the FAIR TAX does not deal with taxes such as excise taxes, import duties, and an assortment of other taxes. Most of which affect business more than individuals.

Comment: A party of five tourists from Nome, accompanied by an old-timer chef, travel by snowmachines to Fairbanks. During the first day goings-on, the tourist are rude and obnoxious. That evening, the chef includes a handful of moose nuggets to the stew. He asks the tourists, "How's the stew?" Their answer, "Tastes like moose shit!" Just then the chef pulls out a revolver and says, "The next complaint will be met with lead." Along the trail the following day, no rude behavior and all is quiet. That night the chef adds more nuggets to the stew. No complaints. Third night, the chef adds more nuggets. Still, no complaints. Fourth night, just outside Fairbanks, the chef asks, "How's the stew?" The tourists reply, "Tastes like moose shit...but good!"

When is enough going to be enough in this godforsaken State?

This did not used to happen like this.

The youth of the past, my past, with a very few exceptions, considered cruising the strip of Northern Lights and Benson to be the highlight of the weekend, and the most serious situations involved fisticuffs between 'enemies', one on one, and the winner, and the loser, understood quickly upon which rung of the ladder they stood regarding each other, and would, more often than not, end up together in Jam's parking lot either bragging, or licking their wounds, but it never went further than that.

And if a rematch was called for, well, it happened, but with same results, so far as the eventual outcome, no matter who 'won'.

Even if said rematch occurred at Gussie's, or Chilkoots, it ended peacefully, as it were.

Really, what has changed this much, culturally that a firearm is used for no good reason?

We became afraid of disciplining our own children, afraid of not being politically correct, afraid of being prosecuted if we used deadly force to protect self, family & property.  Afraid to be different than our peers.  Afraid of speaking our minds.  Afraid of being unfriended of Facebook, Twitter, whatever.  Afraid of finding ourselves on a no fly list, a terrorist watch list, or under suspicion for home-schooling our own children.  The anti-gun people are simply the biggest cowards of the times, not having even the courage to defend themselves from the crazies ... fearfully hoping they will never be in great danger, that the cops will be there, on time, to protect them.  They hope that taking our guns will make them safer.  Their fears have made them desperate, grasping at simplistic solutions.  Cowards!  All of them!

Canada has experienced a larger increase in home prices than any other country in the world. It is hardly experiencing a population increase compared to most countries and globalization actually didn't decrease wages. 

Globalization didn't cause asset holders to benefit. The central banks have played with money to try to get economic growth which has caused capital to be misallocated in amazing amounts. It's been fueled by debt - not globalization. Homes are homes. Globalization has done nothing in terms of the value of a home. It's earnings are rent. It can't generate anything else.

Comment: Another great RC hot issue to expend energy - to encourage discourse on dancing.  As relevant as how many angels dance on the head of a pin!
The plight of 11 million immigrants here is under vicious assault by trump and sessions and where is NCR's coverage? You would think it isn't happening!  
Many greenhouse issues as this find space to expound endlessly over trivial pursuits. 
A huge majority of our immigrants have a Catholic identity, yet there is little passion to make their plight a priority in RC publications. Perhaps an occasional article when constant public pressure is needed to give their plight priority in public consciousness.  Sidelining, ignoring  it only deepens their suffering.  Can we not imagine the anxiety individuals and families are going through now from a soulless administration (clogged with many Catholics)  without any hope on the horizon?  We're doomed as long as we dither with articles on dancing. No only is the issue irrelevant, increasingly Catholics are!

Comment: Well, in one instance mentioned, MEN as well as women, presumably, have every right to be "aggrieved."  I'm referring to the four-day Swedish music festival now cancelled next year because of "reported" rapes and sexual assaults. Talk about over-reaction. And I mean it.

All these incidents are alleged and unproven, at this writing. If charges are laid, some will likely be tossed because of lack of evidence; others may never go to court because some of the complainants (perhaps as addled by alcohol or drugs as their "attackers") will recant.   CBC says the festival "draws about 40,000..."  

Ok, lets say of the 27 nasty sexual incidents reported, 20 turn out legitimate: that's .05% of the total who attended the festival.  Heck, next year, just ban liquor and drugs stronger than pot!  

See? Cancellation is over-reaction.  See that knee-jerk all the time, much like this column about a small group of stupids and misfits in polo shirts who represent nobody but their pitiful selves.

Late-night satire stings because it's on target & hurts Gary's comfortable illusion. Funny, sad & sick, he holds Jimmy Kimmel to a higher standard than his "leader", Fox & RW radio. Gary might ponder why RW comedy flops so badly. Evidently, making fun of the disabled and war heroes as Trump has done, is not so funny except on a school yard. The RW has no sense of humor as the world would understand it. They laugh at people's suffering & at others they demean. There's nothing Baldwin can do to portray Trump in a demeaning way that can't be one-upped by Orange Foolious himself. Don't place a "moron" (RT's words) in the white house and expect sane people to respect him or take him seriously.

Why, just last night on the PBS NewsHour, Democratic senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut was interviewed in connection with the Texas church slayings.  To a major extent, he obviously didn't know what he was talking about or, like our own poster ohanaman, may have conveniently left out inconvenient truths that didn't support his agenda. To quote him:

"This shooter by using a military-style assault weapon was able to engage in one of the worst mass shootings in American history, so clearly a "good guy with a gun" did not stop a "bad guy with a gun" this weekend in Texas.  It's part of this absurd mythology that the gun industry has tried to perpetuate in this country which is never ever true."  Never?

Please add to this list and maybe Justin could use these little tidbits if the US persists:

1.  Immediately institute an export tax on softwood lumber exports to the US, high enough to quadruple the cost of lumber.  The citizens of Texas, Florida, Puerto Rico and California (who all have to rebuild) can pay this export tax. 
2.  Stipulate that all material to be used in the building of the new US - Canada bridge at Detroit be Canadian.  (You will recall that the US refused to contribute financially to this project including their own customs house in Michigan).
3.  Cancel all consideration of Boeing aircraft for our Forces and start looking at the Eurofighter for our needs.

Comment: Taking Billions of Dollars out of the CBR to keep the lights on we lose $166,000,000 in future investment income. Because the GOP super majority cannot, will not for re-election purposes, come up with a plan to fix the fiscal mess the state goes further and further into deficit spending mode. Contrary to what Mr. Herz says in his otherwise stellar reporting  on Juneau it is the subsidies of $600,000,000 to the oil industry that effects the states budget as much as a restructuring of the PFD would do. I'm  in favor of seeing the PFD restructured but not until SB21 is revised, the "new oil" clause is struck and the subsidies  permanently repealed. The Governor presented a balanced plan of revenue increases and substantial spending cuts that were ignored by the legislature. As for Chenault and Meyer saying the lege is at an impasse therefore nothing can be done until the next regular session I call BS. What will be different in Jan. versus now? Just do the damn job you were elected to do.

Comment: Trump once again fails to handle anything wisely.  Kim is not giving up his nukes.  Ever.  Now go negotiate a containment strategy.  We contained China and the Soviets for decades without a major war.  Yet Trump can't handle Korea?  Get rid of the dude and his sleazy family in2020.  Vote in a much better president.

Comment: Good thinking gang ... everyone should vote for the candidate who is on record as saying these things:

 Hillary’s actual words, with source information by Christina Plantz‎
1)	“Where is the God damn flag? I want the God damn fucking flag up every morning at fucking sunrise”.
2)	(2) “Fuck off! It’s enough I have to see you shit-kickers every day! I’m not going to talk to you, too! Just do your Goddamn job and keep your mouth shut.” Hillary to her State Trooper
3)	(3) “If you want to remain on this detail, get your fucking ass over here and grab those bags!” Hillary to a Secret Service Agent
4)	(4) “Stay the fuck back, stay the fuck back away from me! Don’t come within ten yards of me, or else! Just fucking do as I say, Okay!!?” Hillary screaming
(5) “Where’s the miserable cock sucker?” (otherwise known as “Bill Clinton”) Hillary shouting at a Secret Service officer  CONT'D

Comment: I remember reading some time ago about New York slum landlords being ordered by the courts to reside in their dilapidated apartments after failing to bring them up to code and adhering to city bylaws. 

Since it is more than apparent that the Ontario government turned a blind eye to this perhaps Wynn should be stuck in a plexiglass isolation cell with constant light and horrific odors for a month.

Comment: For me, this one says it all:

"Long told the commission that ordained ministers have too much power in the church and too little accountability. The hierarchal culture of the institution needs to be dismantled, he said."

Maybe when a few hundred of these guys begin to feel that, real change will be possible.  Right now, sad to say, I suspect this good man's career is likely capped from this point forward.   Contrast him, for example to Cdl. Burke's antics, and his all but open "campaigning" to be the next pope...

I would hope that as we listen to this bishop, we realize the impact of what he's saying would have on us as well.   The bishops clearly have the power.  But I fear many in the laity who would actually know how to use that power if we got it, long ago left the church.   If he were to prevail, I think a collaboration would need to emerge.  Fun to think about, eh?

Comment: I guess you'd call me a liberal because I tend to favor governmental intervention when "private" behaviors pose serious risks to others.  In this case, however, I swing to the Right.  Assuming that Mr. Jarlstrom's primary "transgression" was to write that he knew something about "engineering" (a generic term), the Board's crusade against him is inane., to say the least.  That would be like me (a retired political scientist) being fined for  illegally "practicing law" because I teach a course in mediation as an effective legal tool.  The case against Mr. Jarlstrom appears to be utter nonsense.  Perhaps one should attack Board members for their lack of proper qualifications.

Comment: Actually it is Obama's administration-July 2016-but you are welcome. JAG grant money, pre Trump, is the 48 hour notice and is the one the Obama Administration used to stop sanctuary city funding. Trump is just continuing on with the same. 

But you know that already.


My hope is-they stop all federal taxpayer funding for any criminal aliens. Bill the aliens  country of origin, and if these countries do not send support funds, do not send any funds in aid to them.

It should not be  on the backs of U.S. taxpayers for support $ in jail as well as support $ to countries. One or the other. Not both.

I have a confession to make.

Well, there is nothing refreshing about it, the only refreshing part of this proposition/equation being;

We/Canada , the Europeans (less the lapdog Brits), China, India and Japan will line up together/squarely against any and all US lunatic fringe trade/military/geopolitical nonsense.

Comment: Pius took a great teaching on sexual freedom for Downs Syndrom and mentally ill patients and turned it on its head. As I said, he was acting in response to Lambreth. The majority of the encyclical was a vainglorous attempt to fight back against moderity. It was so quaint that there was an outcry for the Council to repeal it, which the Trads fought off and ultimately Ottoviani scuttled. Still, the economic logic still stands and I have no qualms in wanting birth control not to be necesssary for ecoomic reasons. Benedict echoed that in Caritas in Veritate. As for the pill, it regulated my ex-wife's emotions and removing it probably helped cause our divorce.

Comment: Truly amusing seeing yet another G&M smear piece.  The paper published what - 100, 200, 300 - hit pieces on Trump, with nary a story on Hillary's pay to play, Benghazi, email server etc.  G&M was 100% wrong on the election.  Imagine that.  100% wrong.  Their job is to inform people, yet they were 100% wrong.  And Breitbart:  was it also 100% wrong?  They nailed the election.  So, when we talk about who was misleading the public, and who was factual, it was the far-left G&M editorial writers who were both wrong and intentionally misleading, and Breitbart that was correct and honest.  

Like the left wing American media, the G&M should hang its head in shame and offer an apology to its (few remaining) readers.
