Not many talkin’ bout this stuff

While surfin’ round yesterday (webs, not waters,,,, As if!!!! Brrrrrr!!!!!!) I saw something about some CCP Shill having a huge bite in US Agricultural real estate.

Now, there are many problems with this, first being that it shouldn’t be permissible, that some ‘hostile foreign party’ could even make the offer, let alone the buy,,,

But then I got to thinking about the sellers. The Farmers that are unloading,,,

Think about it,,, You own the property, you mostly own the equipment (as much as the banks allow you to that is,,,) and you have spent 20 years ecking out a living on such. Every season, your P&L is nearly a zero-sum race; Some years, you’re up, some, you’re down, usually ‘enough’ up that it works out for you.

But is never much, just enough.

Then some guy comes along and offers you 20% over value for EVERYTHING, all you have to do is sign and collect,,,

Principles get bound and gagged and tossed in the trunk when those figures are in tens of millions,,, Suddenly you have the means to retire, or go into another line of self employment that has a better P&L outlook and walk away. The Check is good, the debts are GONE, and you have clear sailing seas ahead,,, Fuck principles, right?

Yeah,,, thats a problem. Our Government has no principles anymore (or they have them skewed, and are counter to the Health of the Country,,,) And when it comes to ‘keep the struggle alive’ or ‘I’m tired of the game’,,, Yeah,,, not hard to compromise,,,, and ‘since the government can get away with it,,, I’ma gonna too!”

ROL? whazzat?

Look at the inner cities and tell me that there is Rule of Law still functioning? There is if you aren’t one of the chosen, or one of the tools to destroy the foundations,,,,

Trump took the Iowa Caucus by storm last night. Left everyone else sucking dust.

Note,,, That is the REPUBLICAN CAUCUS,,, not a lead off against multiple parties. There are OTHER Candidates out there,,,,

BUT,

Enemedia doesn’t want you to think abouu THOSE,,,,, You’re too stoopid to make decisions like that, let Mama-media handle those kinds of things,,,

This two party, no choice shit needs to stop, You wanna run, RUN, there are certain rules for placing your bid of such that have NOTHING TO DO WITH PARTY AFFILIATION, and anyone can run under those rules, The REAL PROBLEM is Coverage,,, And that is slowly being pushed aside with Social Media. Oh so slowly though,,,,

I would rather see some No Namer take the Actual seat with only 2% lead over his/her nearest rival, in a race with 50 contestants for it. NO, it wouldn’t be majority votes, but the Swill that is what makes up our political class would be diluted down to nearly safe to drink,,,, And there would be so much rivalry within the halls, that stoopid legislation would become GLACIALLY SLOW in production,,, Not these 6000 pages Legal-eze nightmares that are passed one week after introduction, that are so full of pork and graff,,,,,

sigh,,,,

maybe someday,

maybe after I am dust on the winds,,,

It’s still snowin’,,,, Its still colder than my Ex-wifes soul, (ok, maybe not THAT cold,,,) and I need to get on the erg and start workin’ up a sweat,,,, OR,,,,,, I am gonna go a lee-tle stir krazee and start writing that self-help book,,,, And if I open up that rabbit hole, there ain’t no coming back until its complete,,,,,

Keep on livin’,,, stay warm, stay safe,,,, And all of y’uns in FLoriDUH,,, Don’t, PLEASE do not tell me about the 70F weather you are having,,,,
