Isn't that a picture of Gislaine Maxwell and her father?

That would have been sometime in the mid-60's if my brief research is right. And I agree, things seemed to be much more pleasant.

Had an interesting discussion with a health care provider a couple months back: How different life would be if everyone asked "What would Andy Griffith Do?" I know life was not perfect in those days, but it seems there was not the animosity that runs rampant now.

It's one of the reasons I like driving on the small-town sections of Route 66. People are helpful, friendly and polite.

"It offers no cognizance of history, geography, or military reality, no recognition of past mistakes, no lessons learned...". Well, not quite, as this seems like a modern repeat of Thomas Jefferson dealing with the Islamic Tripoli pirates, which was actually a past success, not a past mistake. A lesson well learned. We'll see what happens here soon enough.

What population is declining? It seems to me "first world" is declining while third world is increasing, especially third world living within the first world territories. First world robotics may be assisting first world decline while also assisting third world increase. It just seems first world is nurturing third world with a flood of free stuff while turning a blind eye to its own people. Just thinking out loud here with only demographic observations of Europe, North America, and Australia.

Thank you for saying what I’m thinking. Why is negative population growth a bad thing? Automation requires less workers. More folks can live in better first world conditions. I think the third world problems will continue until they expel the corruption, dictatorships and embrace open markets and capitalism. Africa has a huge amount of human capital but the above has prevented any significant change in their lives and economic growth.

Tie between Wilson and FDR. The fed takeover by FDR is the onus for our fed overreach. I don’t think it could have happened without women hating Wilson. (Against women suffrage)

As long as the robots have to pay into social security and medicare. ;^)
US was a much more pleasant place when the population was less than 200 million.

Exactly , and that was the metamorphosis of Al Sharpton the Crack and Coke dealer to high 6 figure race baitor.

That is very interesting ….so………..gold stocks may go up lightning speed. They would if 5% was allocated. Instead of 1.3%.

Or Tawana Brawly.

iirc, the number of miles in a light year (~5.88 trillion) is almost the same as the number of $ the central banks are holding in gold. Strange coincidence.

$5.877 trillion …….seems like gold is still way undervalued if it becomes the king of currency watch it take off. The stock market value is about $67 trillion if you add all Gold and silver miners together they are less than $1 trillion market cap. Someone’s gonna have some splaining to do. At a trillion that’s 1.4% of precious metals assets in all portfolios. In 1980 it was about 5%. Let’s ask AI
Here is a breakdown of the historical average and allocation trends:
Optimal Portfolio Allocation: A 5-15% allocation to precious metals, held consistently, has historically improved portfolio outcomes (risk-adjusted returns) across cycles.
Average Investor Allocation: Despite recommendations, the average portfolio manager has historically held a much lower percentage, sometimes around 1.9% to 2.8%.
Key Drivers: Historically, precious metals (particularly gold) have acted as a portfolio stabilizer due to low or negative correlation with equities during periods of market stress.
Historical Returns: Over the past 25 years (2000-2025), gold has delivered a strong annual return, averaging around 10.9% annually

OK so that 25 yr 11% avg annual return is now over and central banks will stop printing fake money ……rotflmao. Or if they do it’s because the gold will be so valuable no one will give a shit about their fiat.

Zero if you are massless :-)
lol.

The tough one was a parsec, a Parallax of an ArcSecond. A little over 3 light years.

Of course they don’t include the paper market w/derivatives.Also defining central banks and Large banks is key.That is why I led this post explaining our central banks lack of any physical gold. When the FEDo no longer covers up and conceals the grift and manipulation of the criminals they installed running the big banks The free decentralized market will correct the fix. Digging deeper into the banks long or short positions in gold and silver is like trying to read viewing through a kaleidoscope. Intentional. Banks hedge and can use arbitrage by trading in the LBMA , COMEX , Hong Kong , Shanghai . and for customer acts.. Needless to say the COMEX and London are legitimized criminal organizations. So there is that. Silver stackers and Gold stackers are fully aware of the physical vs paper mkt. but some paper as an example like PSLV has the physical backing for the “paper”. Other just a promise it seems.

Do these Percentages include the Rehypothecation (where the banks have sold PAPER Gold Short many times, and people only THINK they own the gold?)

Spot-on.
Slavery would have ended in the South as the industrial revolution and agricultural innovations ramped up. The John Deere harvester was already there, and steam tractors were just a decade or two away.
It's an often ignored fact that, before the Federals did it, one of the first acts of the Confederacy was to abolish the importation of slaves.
Lincoln's great "Emancipation Proclamation" effectively said, "We're abolishing slavery, not in the North, but in that other country down there.
Lewis and Clark had showed Jackson that the largest arable piece of land in the world was between the Appalachians and the Rockies. To get their products to market, everything produced there had to go out through the Hudson (which could be shut down by the Canadian Brits the way Iran and the US are blocking Hormuz now), and the Mississippi. So, to shut down the Heartland, you just needed to bottleneck the Mississippi at New Orleans, which means that not New York or London, but New Orleans was actually the center of the world, and why the Federals had to control it at all cost. Run the Indians out of the East, occupy northern Mexico to push the Mexican border all the way to El Paso, and slaughter the freedom-loving Southerners in order to keep New Orleans under Federal control. That was the plan.

She fraudulently married her brother to scam immigration law.
How is it she's even still in this country?
Let alone still in Congress. WTF!

Thank you for that nugget.
I thought I knew all the sorted stories about that sheit-head.

The position he held and the Council of Foreign Relations...
The Alien encounter...
That rabbit attack that he barely survived.. ;-)
The beer swilling brother Billy..

Peanut farmer, my @$$.

And don't miss that fact that the treasonous bassturd, Barry Hussain O'Blabber, is still running DemonRat show behind the scenes to this very day.

It's the kind of visceral hate that you can smell coming.

Who says the DemonRat Party has nothing going for it?

Slavery ended peacefully everywhere else.
It would have done so in the Confederacy, too.
Lincoln wasn't trying to end slavery.
He was a politician who craved power and
wanted to economically cripple the south to
please his supporters who made him POTUS.
That was his job. He succeeded and set up an
entire country for debt slavery.
600,000 deaths and he gets deified by all the
power mongers that he sired.
None of the others would have had the power
if traitor, war criminal Lincoln hadn't made it possible.

Hmmmm. How many miles in a light year?

I just can’t get behind Lincoln. Slavery had to end. Not good approach, but slavery had to end. LBJ was pure evil. FDR made socialism a real thing in the US.

None of them could have done much without the 16th amendment voted in by Republicans during the Taft Administration! That was the turning point for infinite Federal Power!

Great points!!!!

With friends like the EU, who needs to manufacture enemies? We have enough of these lily livered allies to keep us retching for a long time. They needed unmasking, now they need oil that they won't get. The cabals of ultra-rich power brokers can't figure out how to deal with our President, so they'll do what they always do, murder him and any executive branch appointees they can reach . I fear for us all, because these madmen have no boundaries, no morality, no honor. Watch your six.
