Raise the Estate Tax. Please.

The tax on property—cash, real estate, stock, or other assets transferred from deceased persons to their heirs—should be raised. A lot. Mr. Trump is about to propose tax relief... for himself and other rich people. Including the elimination of the estate tax—which the rich like to call the “death tax.” That plan is just wrong. […]

Dear Democrats—What's Your Plan?

I recently received a campaign e-mail from the office of Democratic Senator Christopher van Hollen Jr. (D-MD). He asked for a donation. I asked for answers. ——— Dear Senator van Hollen, Yes, I voted for you. Maybe I’m old enough to know better and too young to stop, but every time I see one of […]

After-Bern

The Liberal/Progressive Trashing of Bernie Sanders, Traitor I get it, Progressives. You’re butt-hurt that Bernie Sanders threw his support to Hillary Clinton after he failed to win the Democratic nomination to oppose Donald Trump in the 2016 election. I’m disappointed, too. But this temper-tantrum of trash talk has to stop. It’s not productive and it […]

Quick Comment

I’m tempted to say “consider the source” here. Atheist Bullies! Yeah: Because we have a secular center on every street corner that never pays property taxes, a majority of legislators in office, both major political parties dominated by atheists, religion-bashing TV shows dominating the airwaves (especially on Sunday morning), atheists shooting Christians, or denying them […]

Quick Comment

If you read this, you might get the wrong impression. Bernie Sanders joins the 1%? Let’s put this in perspective: First, as the article says, based on his annual income of $200,000, Sanders still is one of the least wealthy Senators. And it matters more what you DO with your wealth—and your political power—than how […]

Democrats Must Stand for Something

I am a Maryland voter and (for now) a registered Democrat. I sent the following e-mail to Sen. Ben Cardin: Dear Senator Cardin, I found your name on a list of Democratic Senators who have not pledged to filibuster the nomination of Judge Neil Gorsuch for the US Supreme Court. I hope you will take […]

Liberal Genocide & Hypocrites

Reposted from SocioPentothal: A last haven of truth Original posting 3/10/2017 Watch the video below… Then read on. Liberal Genocide Facts, evidence, truth. They are the result of objective reasoning, investigation, and rigorous testing. They are not manifestations of wild, ignorant imaginations.

The New America – Authoritarians, Fascists, Doomed

Reposted from SocioPentothal: A last haven of truth Original posting 1/17/2017 “They attacked liberalism because it seemed to them the principle premise of modern society; everything they dreaded seemed to spring from it: the bourgeois life, Manchesterism, materialism, parliament, and the parties, the lack of potential leadership. Even more, they sensed in liberalism the source […]
