Trump Says Puerto Rico Set Back Our Budget – What’s Your Take?

Trump has come under fire for saying that PR has set our country’s budget back, but we’ve been in trouble for decades. Today we are mired in a mess that our politicians of both parties have created; unbelievable public debt, excessive taxation stifling our economy, entitlements well on their way to insolvency, poor inner-city schools and unaffordable higher education, and the list goes on and on. The solution to most of our problems is a return to capitalistic approaches to these numerous problems. The moral sanctity of capitalism remains intact. It has lifted up millions from poverty and despair. Its nemesis, socialism, with its siren call for unlimited gifts for all, has given rise too frequently to tyranny and the deaths of millions at its worst, and poverty and economic stagnation at its best.

Gas Shortage, Hurricanes and Forest Fires — How to Help Our Nation & Debt

Hurricane Harvey, Hurricane Irma and forest fires are sweeping the nation. Citizens are getting frantic and trying to stock up on food, water and gasoline. With the nation in serious debt and citizens losing hundreds of thousands in these natural disasters, here is my take on the nation’s debt —

Now, since basically no one noticed when Nixon took us off the gold standard (me included), I see no reason to try and argue the case for returning to a gold standard by trying to educate the electorate on this matter. Rather, we just need to educate a presidential candidate and influence his pick for Secretary of Treasury. Ideally, a Secretary who understands this subject. Then we need to elect members of Congress that believe in the sanity of a gold standard, and act on it. And that’s the end of my sermon.

What are the upsides of returning the dollar’s link to gold?

(1) No more inflation, which benefits savers, i.e., the value of money put into savings is “protected” from eroding away through inflation.

(2) Businesses that plan to expand would now be able to reliably predict future expenses, thus stimulation of business expansion.

My book is about the future, and the readers I wish to attract are the younger generations, especially those people attracted to liberal, progressive and socialistic ideals. The young tend to reject capitalism because anti-capitalism is all they’ve been taught. Thus, they believe that business is in the business of making money and not helping the poor or the environment. They have established views on the horrors of greed.
