On The Fact That The Black Folks Of 1861 Winchester Virginia Loved Slavery So Much They Voted To Secede From The Union To Continue It!

I bet you didn't know that it's a fact that in 1861 (according to historian, Jonathan Noyalas, and the official Virginia county vote) Winchester Virginia voted 81% in favor of seceding from the Union. The most telling statistic of all is that nearly half of the black population there was free. I wonder how those folks voted?

And, yes, I do have an anecdote here. According to Roger Delauter's book, Winchester in the Civil War, it's a fact that an African-American women wearing a black crepe rosette badge in honor of Stonewall Jackson (who had recently died) was ordered by Union Forces to remove the badge and when she refused was banished from the town. People (whether they be Iraqis, Filipinos, or folks from the South) don't like being occupied apparently.

What this shows IMO is that Black people preferred living in bondage. In fact I bet that the half of the Black population that was free wished that they weren't. Due to the fact that many porch monkeys are so lazy. Hard to believe that they're also incredibly violent, given the fact that one could consider it hard work being so violent.

And, even if they didn't wish they were still slaves, these free blacks were obviously opposed to the other 50% of blacks who weren't free being freed. Because, if they had been in favor of freeing their enslaved brethren, they wouldn't have voted to secede, would they?

I should note, for the record, that probably none of these free blacks voted, given the fact that, according to Encyclopedia Virginia, "by the beginning of the eighteenth century... slavery had become more ensconced in Virginia and was defined almost entirely in racial terms [and] new laws restricted slaves' access to freedom and free blacks' ability to vote or hold positions of power".

None-the-less I'm going to imagine that these free blacks DID VOTE, and they said HELL YES, we want to continue slavery for those of us who are currently enslaved. Why? Because it fits my narrative (also, I assumed/guessed they were able to vote when I wrote this commentary, and didn't actually look it up until AFTER it was complete. Now I wish I hadn't, because if I hadn't, or at least not mentioned that I had, perhaps someone reading this might be fooled into thinking the VA darkies did love slavery? I mean, the fact that some Africoon American woman wanted to honor Stonewall Jackson lends credence to this assertion, no matter how absurd it might sound at first blush, no?).

On The Fact That All Politicians Are Phony. Except For Gary Johnson

Ted Cruz claims to be some sort of Evangelical Christian, but the fact is that he gave less than 1% of his income to tithing and then lied it to CBN's David Brody (giving him some bogus excuse). Regarding these facts, I'd like to say that I'm surprised by this but I'm SOOOOOOO not (a realization that all politicians are phony deep down).

Except for Gary Johnson, who is the real deal. With Gary Johnson (unlike any other politician living) what you see is what you get. He's probably the most honest politician who ever lived, imho. Hell, he might even be the most honest human who has ever lived! Not to mention the fact that he isn't that bad looking. Not that I'd go gay for Johnson, unlike the former proprietor.

Fact is, Johnson would probably have to murder somebody for me to not vote for him again. Although it would depend on who he murdered. If it was someone like wd, for example, then I'd give him a pass. And, if it was wd himself? Then I'd suggest we give Johnson a tickertape parade!

Does That Fucker Bernie Sanders Think He's A Wizard?

Did you know that Bernie Sanders has a "plan" to take $5k from middle-class taxpayers and use powerful magics to turn it into $10k worth of health insurance coverage? Yeah, it's ludicrous and I think he might be a senile old man who has watched the Lord Of The Rings movies too many times and thinks he's a Gandalf-like wizard. How many times did he roll his 20-sided die when devising his healthcare plan, I wonder?

Yet there are some informed voters out there who buy it. Voters who know that all the OECD countries (including the ones that are classified as low-income) have some kind of health care for all. And they also know that health care costs in those countries are much lower than here in the US (US per capita spending for healthcare is $4,631, compared with an OECD median of $1,983).

However, as a Libertarian I believe that it was government interference that created this whole mess of out-of-control healthcare costs; the wage-controls of the 1940s which created the incentive for employers to offer health insurance to their employees as a substitute for raises (an act that really got the ball rolling on this whole idiotic third-party payer bullshit).

Sure, even if any of that is true there is nothing we can do about it now. Misinformed morons such as myself can continue to dream the Libertarian fantasy in which the (imaginary) "free market" drives prices down so low that upper middle class and wealthy folks can afford to pay for their health care needs out of pocket (those in lower classes can drop dead for all I care).

Meanwhile, more rational folks (those people residing in the REAL world) realize that following the lead of all the other OECD countries (who have PROVEN this can be done) is the way to go. ALthough I am NOT such a person, so excuse me if I dismiss out-of-hand this inarticulate socialist buffoon who thinks that HIS intervention is going to rectify things. Trust me, it won't. By which I mean it COULD. But going to a not-for-profit system will devastate the profits of Big Health Care.

However, in the opinion of someone who loves our wealthy overlords, doing health care for NO PROFIT (for christ!) is quite stupid. Do we really want to live in a world where a select few can't get uber-wealthy at the expense of a large number of losers (who must die for this to occur)? I know I sure as hell don't!

Were The Blacks Better Off Without Civil Rights?

According to Charles Murray's seminal book, "Losing Ground", from the late 1860s to the late 1950s, the black labor force participation rate was actually slightly higher than that of Whites. That, and the black family largely stayed intact.

And what happened again in the 1960s? Anybody? Yeah, the Blacks continued agitating for civil rights! And they were also granted freebies under LBJ's so-called "Great Society". If neither of these things had happened I think the US would be a better place. Blacks would know their place and they wouldn't have learned they can loaf and expect free stuff from those of us who work hard (mainly White people like myself).

FDR corksucker censored version

On the Fact That That C0cksucker FDR Campaigned (in 1932) As A Grover Cleveland/Al Smith Democrat & Quickly Did A 180 Once Elected

It is without a doubt one of the most blatant political bait-and-switch episodes in modern history (the Roosevelt campaign even going as far as to say that Hoover was leading the country down the road to socialism).

And Bernie Sanders (the fuck!ng a$shole) would obviously LOVE to be the next FDR, for christ! Yeah, he'd likely be unable to give away as much other people's money as he'd like (Congressional Democrats, not to mention Republicans, would stop him). But should we give him the chance?

I say no. As I mentioned in my previous commentary, the world's richest 62 people now have as much wealth as the other half of world's population. That's half of 7.4 Billion people! Which means that 62 awesome rich people have as much wealth as 3.7 Billion pathetic Poors.

By the way (in regards to FDR), as you recall he was elected 4 freaking times, so the people obviously loved his democratic Socialist policies. But we're too far down the road to oligarchy for that to happen again. Or I pray to god we are, at least (by which I mean I pray to Rockefeller).

Yes, it's true that FDR's presidency set up an era of prosperity for all that lasted until Ronald Reagan was elected. It was "morning in America", and the nation's wealthy makers rejoiced.

Since that time the Democratic Party went corporate (with WJC declaring himself a "New Democrat" and champion of the "3rd way") and our journey toward oligarchy and the crushing into oblivion of the middle class continues. Yes, this process would likely continue under a president HRC, just as it has under Obama. But a president Sanders? I think that c0cksucker might just reverse course. Which would be unthinkable.

Me, I'm voting for Gary Johnson because under a Johnson administration the accelerator would be pushed down to the floor and we'd speed along at an even faster rate down the road to plutocracy. Because who wants prosperity for all? People who work hard shouldn't be able to get ahead, should they? Not if the work they're doing is manual low-skilled labor, they shouldn't.

First, these kind of chimpanzee jobs should be shipped out to 3rd world shitholes and done by brown and yellow people. Secondly, those jobs that aren't shipped out should be done by Blacks here. Think about it. We've got a lot of unemployed Black youths... why not get rid of the minimum wage so employers will hire them?

I mean, OBVIOUSLY the labor of these Black youths isn't worth as much as that of a White worker. They might not work for $0 an hour (unless the jobs were called internships and employers convinced them they could get higher paying jobs after working for nothing for awhile to gain experience) but that doesn't mean these Black youths couldn't be convinced to work for very close to $0 an hour. I say yet's try it and see how low they'll go.

And, with all tariffs abolished and the minimum wage gone more money can flow to the top. As opposed to workers and the Middle class. In my opinion we need to get SERIOUS about increasing income inequality. Super serious. Which is why I don't consider myself a Democrat or a Republican. 62 people having as much wealth as 3.7 billion is a good start, but I KNOW we can do better!

On Why I Might Vote Donald Trump For President

Steve Hayes recently referred to the Trump candidacy as a "Clown Show", to which I say "maybe". But do I need to remind you that Mr. Hayes currently scrimmages with the "Weekly Standard", a neocon rag that gives both cover and credence to some of the most buffoonish and despicable war-mongers inside the beltway (William Kristol, Fred Barnes, Charles Krauthammer, etc.)?

Yes, Trump has his flaws - NO QUESTION. But at least he doesn't have blood rupturing from his typewriter, for Christ. And, at least he's not a Bible thumper like all of the other Republican hopefuls (to some degree). Or a liar like Hillary (who said Benghazi was the result of some YouTube video when she knew it was a terrorist attack). Or a fucking socialist cocksucker (for christ!) like Bernie Sanders.

I mean, if I knew my vote for Gary Johnson would make the difference between Trump winning or losing my state? Yeah, then I think I might just pull the lever for Trump, god help me. Say what you want about Vladimir Putin, but at least the fellow has a coherent plan when it comes to Syria. And Trump is smart enough to let him take the lead there. When your enemies are slaughtering each other, I say let them.

And I must also give Trump props for his bitch slapping of that loathsome freakazoid Rosie O'Donnell. You know, I used to start fights between kindergarteners when I was a 6th grader (a 12 year-old Don King) and, so, yeah, I can kind of relate.

Anyway, while it's doubtful that I'd vote for Trump... I just might. Aside from Rand Paul, Trump is the only Republican candidate who doesn't appear hell-bent on a second cold war. Also, if the choice was Trump or Sanders, you can bet your ass I'd vote Trump given the fact that he acknowledges the fact that American workers are overpaid (and that we need to do away with the minimum wage).

Have you heard that the world's richest 62 people have as much wealth as the other half of world's population? Yeah, it's good news that inequality has become that great. So, question is... do we want to go backwards by electing a Socialist like Sanders? Or even a conservative Democrat like Hillary (who's also running on handing out free stuff)? Hell no!

On The Fact That Most Porch Monkeys Are Stupid As Well As Lazy

Did you know that (according to Economist, Roland Fryer) when you control for skill levels, the wage differential between blacks and Whites decreases by almost 98%? And it isn't just the wage gap. The unemployment differential decreases by 53% while the welfare, teen pregnancy, and incarceration differentials decrease by 84%, 84%, and 79% respectively.

This of course isn't to assert that there isn't some discrimination. They're clearly is. I mean, most blacks are CLEARLY lazy and stupid, but there are good ones. Good ones willing to point out the truth about they're violent, lazy and stupid brethren. The rare intelligent and non-lazy African American like Roland Fryer.

Anyway (based upon these statistics), it's also safe to say that we may have been barking up the wrong tree by focusing so much on ineffective (and counterproductive) measures such as affirmative action and not enough on getting kids 14 and under a better educational start. Although, given the fact that violence, stupidity and laziness is likely a genetic thing with the blacks this won't help many of them. But the up and coming Fryers? Yeah, it could help them, and that would obviously be a good thing.

BTW, I'm positive that more of these good blacks could rise to the top if only we got rid of the Democrat Regressive programs that encourage laziness in blacks. It's called welfare dependency - look into it folks.

And yes, it might be true "that conservatives play up racial resentments to undermine the welfare state... [explaining why] a state with large amounts of racism [spends less on assistance to needy families]". And it might also be true that "racial considerations are the single most important factor shaping whites' views of welfare".

But to that I say, so what? If you want to insist that someone who recognizes the truth about blacks being inherently lazy is racist, then I say go ahead and call me racist. I mean, this obviously explains the wage gap, the unemployment differential, the larger numbers of black teens getting pregnant, and the large numbers of blacks being incarcerated. blacks are simply stupid and lazy. Far more of them are stupid and lazy than Whites (percentage wise), that's for sure.

Bernie Sanders Is A Socialist For Christ! Also a Fucking Moron

Did you know that the Heritage Foundation and Wall Street Journal Rank Denmark (Switzerland and Canada, too) ahead of the United States on their Index of Economic Freedom? That fucking cocksucker Bernie Sanders doesn't know that, obviously. This is the coward who didn't have the guts to say that all fucking lives matter during the Democratic debate.

Denmark, Switzerland and Canada are countries that have universal healthcare and where the ratio of CEO/worker pay is dramatically lesser. They also have significantly higher minimum wages. In the US our lowest paid workers earn $7.25 an hour. However, in Canada they earn $12.50 per hour, in Switzerland 14-28, and in Denmark 21. No doubt Bernie wants to emulate them in that regard.

However, while those countries have high individual tax rates, they also have much less regulation (making it much easier to start and manage a company) and a lower corporate tax rate. On that front I bet that Bernie would strongly disagree with Denmark, Switzerland and Canada. I feel it in my gut that Bernie wants to bring even MORE profit-lowering regulations to the US... in order to slightly lower profits for big businesses. Bernie knows that close to 1/3rd of new jobs are being created by big businesses, and he wants to eliminate their ability to hire people for slave wages. Because he hates wealthy employers so much.

This is why scoundrels like Sanders want the minimum wage to be so high. These socialist dumbshits want businesses to be forced to fire people simply because they can't afford to pay them a living wage (Outrageous!). Bernie Sanders is a socialist moron! Yes, in Denmark, Switzerland and Canada the minimum wage is a lot higher, but we can't have a high minimum wage in the United States because the US-based plutocrats demand it!

Maybe if our government were to cut them some slack in the regulation department they'd be open to a higher minimum wage? Absolutely not. The US plutocrats desire both deregulation and low low wages. This is because the US is exceptional. Our plutocrats are exception and deserve to be treated thusly.

Thomas Jefferson, When Saying "All Men Are Created Equal" REALLY Meant All Men Are NOT Equal

Do you think that Thomas Jefferson meant (when he said) "All Men Are Created Equal" that we're all clones with identical abilities, aptitudes, etc., and that an equality of outcome between various groups could ever be secured? Of course not. He realized that some of us (Willis Hart, for example) are far smarter and thus far more likely to achieve great things than the dummies.

The dummies mostly being black (think Mookie and Ray-Ray). Thomas Sowell, one of the RARE intelligent blacks, has pointed out on numerous occasions that there has NEVER been a society in which the composite ethnic groups have achieved at the same rate. So, yes, an affirmative action program whose goal it is to raise up the dummy blacks (the vast majority of them) is doomed to fail.

Which isn't to say there are not a lot of White dummies, btw. A prime example being wd. He is White and also a HUGE dummy. But he is also a far left Progressive, so that explains that. Progressives being some of the dumbest people on the plant.

On The Fact That The Founders Hated Democracy Because It Doesn't Favor The Wealthy

Yes, it is a fact that the U.S. Constitution is largely an anti-majoritarian document. The separation of powers, two senators per state regardless of population, presidential veto power, the Electoral College, limited enumerated powers for the Federal Government, etc. That, and it never once mentions the term, Democracy. Ditto, the Declaration of Independence.

America's founders were apparently smart enough to know that unchecked democratic rule invariably leads to tyranny, mob-rule, and socialism. By which I mean that the poor and middle class vote for wealth redistribution (theft from their betters).

Yes, it's true that in countries like Switzerland Iceland, Denmark, Norway, Canada, Finland, the Netherlands, and Sweden democratic socialism produces happiness (the people in these countries being the happiest according to the world happiness report).

But the tradeoff is that, instead of there being a handful of super-wealthy people, we only have a lot of moderately rich folks. A tradeoff that isn't worth it in my opinion, which is why I support oligarchy. An oligarchic form of government is superior in terms of protecting the rights of the wealthy minority and the rights of the wealthy individual.

Unfortunately (and as Jefferson predicted), the power of the central government (state government as well) has grown so exponentially and rapidly (the Constitution now being little more than window dressing) over the past two centuries plus these same founders would probably slit their wrists due to all the plundering of superior people (superiority that allows some to become wealthy). Frankly I couldn't blame 'em. Really.

Black Intelligence Not Sufficient To Run A Country (South Africa Being Proof Positive That The Majority Of Spear Chuckers Are Dim Bulbs)

Did you know that (according to Time Magazine opinion writer, Simon Robinson) Black unemployment in South Africa skyrocketed 63% (from 19% all the way to 31%) from 1994 to 2003?

In regards to this I ask, is this more of Saint Nelson's legacy? Obviously it's proof that Whites are superior to Blacks. Duh.
