US: Ticking Time Bomb as Debt Reaches New High! (8.11.2025)

“The reality is that we’re becoming distressingly numb to our own dysfunction. We fail to pass budgets, we blow past deadlines, we ignore fiscal safeguards, and we haggle over fractions of a budget while leaving the largest drivers untouched. Social Security and Medicare, for example, are just seven years from having their trust funds depleted – and you don’t hear anything from our political leaders on how to avoid such a disaster,” Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget President Maya MacGuineas said in a statement.

The critique lays bare America’s fiscal predicament, that is, political numbness toward systemic failures has become normalized.

While both parties remain deadlocked in partisan disputes over budgetary deals, they persistently avoid addressing the root cause of debt expansion.

The U.S. is stuck in a perpetual cycle of issuing new debt to service existing obligations—a spiral with no exit in sight. This relentless accumulation suggests the national debt bomb is destined to keep growing.

The Power of the Unified Brain-Cell – Visiting Central London – Testing the Waters! (4.10.2025)

When visiting London’s Chinatown today – we ate Yum Cha – the area was relaxed and quite sweet. Everyone was calm, relaxed, and perfectly willing to get along. There was NO underlying or latent aggression despite the odd-looking and tattered Union Jack haphazardly hanging from lamp-posts here and there. It seems to me that we have a “rent a mob” in the UK representing the far-right which descends upon a town, brutalises its non-White population, and tries to convince the White population that they are dying-out, and then head back to their Northern strongholds – where many cousins are also brothers and sisters, if you catch my drift. Remember the research into why it was that certain “White” working class populations appeared to be suffering from genetic diseases whilst living near mobile telephone masts – when no such damage was recorded from these mechanisms during extensive scientific trials. It turned-out this DNA problem had nothing to do with the radiation from mobile telephone towers – but was the consequence of indigenous White groups choosing to interbreed amongst brothers, sisters, fathers, daughters, and cousins, etc.

An Injured Stonewall Jackson!

How Confederate General “Stonewall” Jackson Overcame Disability! (20.11.2024)

The Ancient Greek idea of inner strength – mediated through a cultivated wisdom – was the Classical model Stonewall Jackson used to enhance his own health and social standing. Due to his honesty and humility, those who personally encountered his personality were always drawn toward his charisma. Although his family were not willing to “waste” money on a military education for their son, a friend of the family was made aware of an unusual Scholarship being offered which permitted “one” successful candidate to enter West Point to train as an “Officer” in the US Army. Around five very clever men competed for this Scholarship – and it was predictably won by an impoverished “Lawyer”. However, this “Lawyer” came from a privileged background and lasted just one-day when subjected to military discipline at West Point. The Scholarship was once again thrown open to the four remaining men – through another round of examinations – and Stonewall Jackson prevailed. This is how Stonewall Jackson gained access to West Point.

Will Trump’s “Insurrection Dysfunction” Adversely Effect His Re-Erection Campaign? (21.12.2023)

Republicans accused Democrats of using the Colorado court as a political weapon at a time when U.S. President Joe Biden’s polling stood at a low point.

Meanwhile, the Republican presidential race has been dominated by Trump, who is only bolstered among his voting base by the four criminal indictments he faces, prompting several other candidates to drop out of the race.

Some maintained that Colorado’s court ruling could galvanize those who disagree with the court’s actions.

“That appears to be happening already. Trump’s rivals for the GOP nomination are falling in line behind him and condemning the decision, and it plays right into Trump’s depiction of himself as a victim of sinister forces,” Galdieri said.

Even his main rivals, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, suggested that the ruling was an abuse of judicial power.

Ruckersville [2009]: Chris Chan Is Working On It! (4.9.2023)

Interestingly, Robert Chandler (a US Army Veteran who fought in Korea) – was a very successful engineer in his civilian life – whose many different patents also contributed to the development of the 3-D Printer! Apparently, the family made a comfortable living from these patents whilst Robert was alive and it is something of a mystery as to ‘why’ this income never continued to help Chris and Barbara after his death in 2011. Furthermore, although Chris suffers from Autism – he made an attempt to keep his bedroom relatively free of the clutter that dominated the rest of the living space. Robert Chandler is well aware of the reality (and ‘danger’) of ‘hoarding’ – and explains this to Chris whilst not realising the camera is still running and whilst assuming that the internet is situated in a specific location somewhere in the outer world! He is referred to as the ‘Lumberjack’ – as he once implied he could ‘cut-down’ the internet!

The Spectres of ‘Dead’ Ukrainians are Haunting Europe! (26.11.2022)

The mental illness recorded on film above, shows an area whereby well-armed and equipped Ukrainian soldiers were killed in earlier battles with Russian (or ‘Allied’) soldiers – with their fully dressed bodies simply being ‘left’. As a consequence, many have skeletonised whilst remaining in their dying positions. As the nature of war tends to produce dead bodies – it might be convincingly argued that this is to be expected – and this would be correct. These soldiers may well have been killed by bullet or bayonet – or perhaps caught on the very edge of some type of explosive power (as their bodies and equipment are fully intact)! What the Russian cameraman states is that this is a fluid frontline area that has seen much hand-to-hand ‘bayonet’ fighting with its occupation (and ‘control’) changing sides on a regular basis. However, what is also observed is that occupying ‘living’ Ukrainian soldiers occupied these entrenched areas whilst sitting, standing and lying next to the corpses of their Comrades who were killed during earlier battles – and whose bodies were NOT recovered or treated with respect in any way by the Ukrainian Forces still with us! Surely this is yet another example of the ‘mental illness’ that the capitalist system has ‘normalised’ and serves as the water the Bourgeoisie take great pleasure in making us all swim within!
