In case you missed it, we recently wrapped up a big national election which is putting Donald Trump back in the White House. The Democrats probably could have ran away with this one, but over the last year as we have seen they have become their own worst enemy. All things considered, Trump’s 2Continue reading “Third Time’s the Charm”

Trump on Top
Once again, despite 90% of the country having moved on from 2020, the remaining few are doing their best to keep Donald Trump in everyone’s minds. The 45th President was booked in some jail in Georgia for the 4th criminal case levied against the President in 5 months. And once again, millions of people allContinue reading “Trump on Top”
The Twitter Files
Elon Musk is going wild and it’s fantastic. Exposing the craziness behind Twitter in the last several years—confirming what many people thought was happening anyway—has been a great thing to watch as it unfolds. Bringing transparency to this website that has gotten so popular and prominent is a great thing for all of usContinue reading “The Twitter Files”
Avoiding Energy Crises
We all know the concept of self-sufficiency, and practice it to varying levels of intensity. This concept stretches from our home life and career to our governments. While our government has made a recent step to ensure our self-sufficiency, the folks across the Atlantic are feeling the pain of not preparing properly. We canContinue reading “Avoiding Energy Crises”
More Big Band-Aids
The White House announced President Biden’s new student loan relief plan on August 24. This plan is designed as a three-part plan to alleviate the outstanding student debt across the country. Off the bat, it seems either poorly designed or on track to have negative effects. Get your mental seatbelt on and let’s takeContinue reading “More Big Band-Aids”
Life, Love, and Legal Logistics
FINALLY something new and interesting to write about: the rat in the Supreme Court leaking a draft decision regarding Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. Of course, abortion is a hot topic and will always be amongst us. Will the Supreme Court roll back Roe and Casey or are we simply gettingContinue reading “Life, Love, and Legal Logistics”
Stop the Job!
In every single industrial/construction jobsite I’ve ever been to and/or been a part of, I have been reminded of “Stop Work Authority.” For the white-collar workers who may be unfamiliar with this, SWA is the right and responsibility of anyone on a job site to stop work if and when they observe something thatContinue reading “Stop the Job!”
Shortage of Sense
We have once again come across a shortage of common sense here in this country. Much like the toilet paper scare back in March 2020, another commodity becoming scarce is causing people to act more irrationally than usual. We can thank whoever hacked into the Colonial Pipeline for that. This situation should also beContinue reading “Shortage of Sense”
The Government Is Not Our Friend
For once, I am stymied to think of a great first sentence to catch the attention of readers. I would love to have some grandiose way of drawing you, my friend, into this article so strongly that you can’t help but read it through. Maybe I need a nap. I don’t know. Point is,Continue reading “The Government Is Not Our Friend”
Burning Through Money
A new COVID “relief” bill has passed through the Senate and the House and is sitting on President Biden’s desk. This bill exceeds the omnibus bill from December with a $1.9 trillion price tag. In other words, between these two bills, and in less than three months, the government is earmarking roughly $3.3 trillionContinue reading “Burning Through Money”
