Ryancare, like Obamacare, involves cross subsidies. Some people wind up subsidizing other people. The resulting landslide of rules and regulations will shut down competition, with the result that everyone plus the government winds up paying unreasonable prices. Ryancare requires that insurance cover people with pre-existing conditions. That is not insurance, that is a handout. If the government is going to give people handouts, should be done openly through government funded …
The solution we do not want.
One of my commenters asks “Why not just become Muslim?” I presume he means conservative Muslim, since a whole lot of Muslims are pozzed, are not breeding and not getting any pussy. That is the Mormon solution (control women’s socialization) plus the orthodox Jewish solution (make female status artificially low), plus the ever popular individual male solution (illegal violence or the quiet potential for it) plus you turn off the …
Implementing Patriarchy without the state.
Obviously to properly implement patriarchy requires a patriarchal state, and an official state church that can combine moral pressure with official coercion. Adultery, interfering with another man’s wife or betrothed, should be met with lethal violence which lethal violence needs to be state supported. If we can shoot burglars, should be able to shoot adulterers. Misbehaving women need to be locked up, runaway women need to be forcefully returned to …
Warmism and the old Gods of Mexico
Warmism is an updated and rebranded version of the old Mexican religion, demon worship. The priests announce that unless human sacrifices are made, the sun will cease to rise. And, guess what, this gives the priests a whole lot of influence over which people get sacrificed to sun god, and which people do not. Thus we find the priests of global warming involved in all sorts of highly lucrative schemes …
Conservatives find their balls
As a general rule, the left deploys any means necessary, routinely engaging in treason, criminal acts, and barefaced lies, as for example the latest business about Islamic rape war on Swedes. And the cuckservatives roll over and let them get away with it. The left does this stuff because they can, and routinely do, get away with it. However, the committee on Science, Space and Technology is now insisting on …
On purging Milo
If Milo was purged for being a Jewish coal burning gay, that would be one thing, but being purged having sex with an older man at the age of fourteen is a different thing. Gay sex is disgusting and self destructive regardless of age, and thirty year old women are no more competent to make unsupervised sexual choices than twelve year old girls. Purging Milo for “pedo” concedes the left …
Defunding the left
Reagan talked about defunding the left, but never actually did anything. As a result of Trump’s threats against Berkeley, they are starting to think that hiring a bunch of thugs to beat people up and cause over a hundred thousand dollars worth of damage may have been a bit excessive. Meanwhile Trump and congress are working on stripping two billion from NASA global warming propaganda. NASA put up a bunch …
The cost disease part 2
Costs of many important things, in particular education, housing, and healthcare are rising in ways that create artificial first world poverty, the inability to afford a wife and children. Scott Alexander wrote a superficially thoughtful and well informed examination of these problems, which analysis was made stupid by crimestop. A lot of high intelligent well informed people responded with explanations of the problem which accurately described parts and details of …
Dumping Flynn
Dumping Flynn looks weak and will encourage the left to go after more scalps. And the people that were after Flynn are seeking war with Russia and Syria. War is easy, peace is hard, for it is always easier to create disorder than maintain order. But, on the other hand, Flynn was expendable. On studying his career, I find he was a neocon, and an advocate of Coin (counter insurgency …
The cost disease
Some leftists and a PC libertarian have noticed that progress is not progressing: Education, healthcare, and infrastructure is getting much more expensive without improving in quality, and in many respects declining in quality. Doctors no longer make house calls. Education teaches ignorance and stupidity. Infrastructure has brutalist architecture. Naturally they are completely mystified about what is causing it because crimestop makes them stupid. First world poverty – the inability to …
