About Me

My photo
Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a daily basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

Bipartisanship Not Self Interest

Any time I have something controversial to talk about,
I find it difficult to begin.
I am sure that everyone across the globe agrees that
First Responders
and
Essential Workers,
in each of their respected countries,
are truly
Heroes
during this pandemic.
Amazon.com: first responders flag
I cannot speak for those other countries,
I can only talk about,
what I know of the
United States.
Here,
it is all about,
"What have you done for me lately?"
You see,
a lot of these
People
will be out of work when the pandemic is over.
Every
State In The Union
is going
Bankrupt,
and when they find a cure for the coronavirus,
across the board,
from
Businesses,
to
City,
County,
and
State Governments,
to help reduce their debt,
our
Heroes
today will be left by the wayside to fend for themselves tomorrow.
Don't expect our
Federal Government
to help either.
Senate Majority Leader,
Republican Mitch McConnell
has made it political. 
"McConnell says giving aid to states to help ease the pain from the pandemic would be a 'blue state bailout."
Blue States,
if you don't know what they are,
are
Democratic States!
He is not going to help any
Blue
or
Red State
after the crises is over because it might help,
what he considers the
OPPOSITION!
He doesn't care what is right for the country as a whole.
He cares about playing political games with everyone's lives so he
and his cronies can stay in
Power
and stay
Rich!
I don't care if you are
Republican,
Democratic,
Socialist,
Greenpeace,
Independent,
or whatever.
The next couple of years should be about
Bipartisanship
to save the economy,
not
Self Interests
by few one-percenters!
All I am asking of the people of this country is,
come
November,
vote for the politicians you feel will work federally
and locally to help this country,
not destroy it.

This is,
 And Don't Give Me That Bull That My Vote Don't Count Either,
Jim Hauenstein,

And,

“Loyalty to country ALWAYS. Loyalty to government, when it deserves it.”
- Mark Twain


That is my story and I am sticking to it!
