I Have Had it with College Professors

I have had it with college professors collecting my tax dollars and student loan money from a gaggle of 19 year olds and telling me about what an evil country America is, and making Barak Hussein Obama out to be a secular saint.

I was shocked to read an NYU professor saying that the Obama administration was "free from scandal".  Last time I checked, empowering Mexican criminals to kill U.S. law enforcement officers by shipping guns to those Mexican criminals was a scandal.  Shipping pallets full of cash to a terrorist-backing Iranian theocracy was a scandal.  Letting, indeed, dictating that public schools allow men in women's bathrooms through the unlawful apparatus of the Department of Education was a scandal.

The groomed lapdogs of the mainstream media will not tell you about them.  The education priesthood will not teach you about them.  The half-anesthetized 'conservatives' that make up the bulk of the Republican party will not stand up against them.

That's what you've got me for.

We Are Living During a Criminal Regime

No, I don't mean Donald Trump: I mean Roe v. Wade.

The silent murder of millions of children, brought about by this Supreme Court decision, was the culmination of decades of work done by those who sought to undermine the moral, legal and intellectual foundations of the American Republic.  It's origins are traced at least to Woodrow Wilson, who sought to bend the plain-language of the Constitution to the corrupt dictums of Progressivism.

In the future, government agencies such as the 'Department of Education' and the 'Department of Labor' to name just a few, will be recognized for what they are - unlawful regime apparatuses that tax, harass, and oppress the American people.

We must make a clean break with the holocaust that began nationally on January 22, 1973.

I find nothing in the language or history of the Constitution to support the Court's judgment. The Court simply fashions and announces a new constitutional right for pregnant women and, with scarcely any reason or authority for its action, invests that right with sufficient substance to override most existing state abortion statutes. The upshot is that the people and the legislatures of the 50 States are constitutionally disentitled to weigh the relative importance of the continued existence and development of the fetus, on the one hand, against a spectrum of possible impacts on the woman, on the other hand. As an exercise of raw judicial power, the Court perhaps has authority to do what it does today; but, in my view, its judgment is an improvident and extravagant exercise of the power of judicial review that the Constitution extends to this Court.^[57][58]

-Justice Byron White

I am mildly encouraged, at best, by President Trump's choice for Supreme Court Justice, Neil Gorsuch, whose circumspect statements on Roe v. Wade do not seem by any means to address the national crisis of child murder taking place in the United States every single day.

I Call Donald Trump President l'Orange

What?  He's big, orange, and really funny.  It's French for President: The Orange.

The Department of Education Should Be Eliminated

It's tough for me to verbalize why I don't like the Department of Education.  In my mind, thoughts against Federal bureaucracy, my support for the Tenth Amendment, and in general, a strong desire for local government to be more important, all collide.  I feel like the Department of Education is the most unconstitutional part of the Executive Branch, as the Constitution is silent on the subject of education, and this means that it is clearly left up to the states and the people.

We Should Have a Medium-Sized, Highly Advanced Force of Nuclear Weapons

The United States exists in a dangerous world.

Until other countries are willing to eliminate their nuclear forces, we must maintain and indeed modernize our own.

The Education Bureaucracy is a Post-Modern Priesthood

I started thinking about the educational bureaucracy.  That school districts are the biggest employer in many towns. That entire shadowy ISDs (Intermediate School Districts) exist with the sole purpose of facilitating - at great expense - the special education regime within a given area.  That the principal of my elementary school, who I always took to be a fine man, finished out his career with the odd job title of Curriculum Development.

Entire degree fields, programs, and areas of study should be eliminated as they contribute to nothing but a wasteful priesthood whose acolytes sponge off of the public and whose writ is the Common Core.

The Internet Has Failed Us

The Internet was billed as a way of bringing people together.  It was billed as creating a level playing field, a place beyond the constraints of editorial limitations, a place where people could have real freedom to express themselves.  The problem is that most content people put out is terrible and would better not have seen the light of day.

Lest you think me too harsh, witness this: many major news sites- folks as varied as the milquetoast 'conservatives' at National Review Online are from the hard- core Bolsheviks orchestrating the propaganda machine at NPR - do share one thing in common - they've shut down comments on their websites.  Yes, comments, where 2002's thoughtful if slightly longwinded inveighences from the effete intelligentsia had morphed into 2016's profanity-laden tirades by the millions of angry unemployed dudes of all political stripes.

Even sites dedicated to commenting - and I'm looking at you, Twitter - merely add jet fuel to the fire of comments about comments that becomes a form of anti-information, replacing what little we knew with a vapid stream of consciousness that benefits nobody.

Wikipedia, the notoriously unreliable, inconsistent, frustrating, and often plain wrong "encyclopedia" website features mostly rambling, politically stilted, decontextualized "articles" that, by virtue of being free, have killed off the once-revered print editions of encyclopedias like the Encyclopedia Britannica.  To the Internet's, or at least, the electronification of data's list of crimes, I add the elimination of card catalogues and the serendipitous discoveries using them brought about.  Having to know what you're looking for and needing to type in a specific search query into a library computer is absolutely nothing like browsing through a physical card catalogue and stumbling across something you didn't know existed.  In fact, to all the Digital Age's (ironic) destruction of information and discovery, I think the elimination of the card catalogue is the worst.  Sure, I can still physically wander around a library's shelves, and I often do.  But it's not the same as having the entire catalogue literally at my fingertips.

Don't even get me started on the Agent Smith properties of Google and Facebook, documented here.  And yes, I've long wondered if humans are actually mammals.

As those who know me best will probably reflect, I've been against the Internet from the beginning.  And yes, I'm aware that there's a certain irony of using the Internet to complain about the Internet, but check this out if you've got the time - it shows you ten more ways the Internet is probably bad.

I'm not saying abolish the whole internet.  There is a certain use in distributing great literature and other important works across a massive number of servers, and the Internet has probably made good books like the Bible slightly more available.  But on the whole I think the Internet has acted like an ideological cattle pen - driving us actually toward uniformity.  As information consumers, we used to be free-range.  But how can you really explore if you have to start by knowing what you need to type?
