I enjoy the WW2 videos and I found a channel that posted the memoirs of Japanese officers, using text to speech software. It was interesting to see the view of the other side. The problem is, there's a small number of memoirs and fewer that are translated. The last video I saw was about a...

The car business is tough and service advisors are salesmen who get paid on commission. This inevitably leads to over selling. The problem is it's difficult to distinguish dishonesty for ignorance or stupidity. I spent most of my working life in dealership service departments and I've seen it...

In the late 70s, the BBC produced a 10 episode series titled Connections. Writer James Burke traces scientific and technological discoveries from their beginnings, and the series of connections which bring them to the present day. One of the episodes has a short scene set in and English town...

And yet, here we are discussing Trump and socialism. No system is immune to corruption. In our current situation, we see Trump using regulatory interpretation and enforcement to extort money out of Paramount. There is little doubt that same regulatory power will be used to insure the value of...

The actual definition of socialism includes actual control over the means of production, not a passive equity share. I could buy a large amount of General Motors stock, but until I own a majority share, I have no say in the color of next year's Chevrolets. The tongue in cheek element of this...

I think it's plain to see that no one is advising Trump on good ideas. The Epstein Files will add an interesting chapter to the Encyclopedia of Things People Said About Trump that They Thought Would Never be Made Public.

In order for Trump to like socialism, he would need to know what it is, beyond a word he can use to get a desired reaction.

Investing tax payer money in oligarch industries is not the same thing as socialism.

Eugenics was philosophy masquerading as science.

Marjorie is an opportunist whose only real skill in life is jumping in front of a crowd and presenting herself as their leader. This is also Trump's modus operandi. Trump started with a crowd who could elect him President. That's no longer an option and his new crowd is billionaires who can give...

A contract, social or otherwise, is an exchange of goods or services for something of value, between two people who think the exchange is equal. The rest is definitions and terms. So the question remains, did I steal your car?

It puts Bondi is a strained situation. She is on record as saying the files do not contain incriminating evidence about anyone other than Epstein. This means she is complicit in a cover up of crimes committed by Democrats.

Clay Higgins's only purpose in life to prevent Mike Johnson being the stupidest Congressional Representative from Louisiana.

Suppose your father stole my car. You inherit the car and one day I see you park it on the street. I happen to still have the spare key. I get in the car and drive away. Am I a car thief.
