Granite Grok - 5 hours 19 min ago
Let’s be clear.  This isn’t about preventing a family from converting their garage into a studio apartment for Granny so she doesn’t have to spend the rest of her life in assisted living or any other commonly used argument to gaslight people sounding the alarm on potential loss of local control.  A few other scenarios ...

The Cultural Consequences of the Welfare State

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-04-29 22:00 +0000
Foundations of the welfare state can be found in Bismark’s idea of the social state, which, at first, was used to fight socialists on a political level, but hell is full of good intentions. Bismark in the 1880s created compulsory insurance for accident, health, disability, and age (pensions). He called them “state socialism” and explained that all ... Read more

How About No Income Taxes For Anyone Making Less than 200K/Year?

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-04-29 20:00 +0000
The Proglodytes are forever whining about someone paying their fair share or taxing the rich, even though Democrats have more oligarchs (rich folks) registered on their team. It’s a bait and switch.

Will The Democrats Ever Return To Normal?

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-04-29 16:00 +0000
Reason would lead you to believe that after the Democratic Party got shellacked last November, party leaders would have come together and concluded they have become too out of touch with the American people, they were no longer seen as the party of the American worker, and if there were any chance of a comeback in the ...

Contrails,  Chemtrails, and Climate Engineering: We ARE Being Poisoned

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-04-29 14:00 +0000
The truth is, we ARE being poisoned…in several different ways. We can all see the man-made clouds line up in the sky, even at night now. Airplanes are leaving an increased number of cloud formations.

Amid the Extreme and Perverse

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-04-29 10:00 +0000
The familiar adage, “the longest journey begins with the first step,” is so true and very applicable to today’s American decline.  Particular to my life, I now consider the Supreme Court’s ruling that banned prayer from our nation’s classrooms as being that first step to America’s downward spiral. I suppose that for me, the importance ... Read more

RealClear Wire Canada has one of the most protectionist economies among developed nations. It particularly targets American farmers, media, and manufacturers.

Unhelpfully, Trump claimed authority to do so under the International ... Read more
