A massive pile of manure was dumped on the doorstep of the Warren County Democrats in Ohio – and police are searching for the culprit.

It sounds like one of those shovel-ready jobs President Obama is always talking about.

A spokesperson for the party told Fox 18 that it took three trucks to move all the manure. That’s a whole lot of fertilizer – even for Democrats.    Continue reading “Load of manure dumped outside DNC HQ”

No matter who wins the elections we will have a Depression in the very near future. It will be far more severe than in the 1930s when 3 million Americans starved to death. Professor Steve Keen said that we can reliably predict the severity of the coming Financial Crisis by counting the number of Unpayable Debts that we have to cancel. Keen said we are headed to the worst Financial Crisis in 500 years because we have more Unpayable Debts to cancel than at anytime in the last five centuries.

Hint: Dr Michael Hudson said, “Unpayable Debts will never be repaid.”   Continue reading “A Few Suggestions For The US Military After Martial Law”

This presidential election cycle has been nothing, if not a controversy-laden shit show of the bizarre — and a monumentally pricey one, at that. It’s now estimated the stupefying cost for the duopoly to provide us with two altogether unappealing candidates — possibly the least liked in American electoral history — as well as congressional minions, totals no less than $6.6 billion.   Continue reading “There Has To Be a Cheaper Way To Find The Worst People — 2016 Elections Will Cost Over $6 Billion”
