We Weren’t the Problem

There is really no reason to feel any sympathy for some of the vaccinated individuals who are dropping dead or their families. It’s one thing to be deceived, it’s another thing altogether to go out of your way to needlessly castigate those who were not so easily fooled.

It is with indescribable shock, sorrow, and regret that the family announces the untimely death of Wade Baird. He is survived by his wife of 21 years Chantal and his children Nathan and Kaitlyn.

Wade had strong political opinions and would unapologetically share them with everyone. Saucy, humorous, and sarcastic banter with colleagues and close friends were a staple of his repertoire. He usually got the last barb in and it was, inevitably, a very good jab.

All invited attendees will require to show valid ID and proof of vaccination or a negative Covid -19 test within 72 hours of the service.

Karma is a real bitch. As a general rule, one does well not to tempt her.

UPDATE: Karma respects neither Jew nor Gentile.

The Exception Proves the Nobel

The bankrupt state of modern economics is revealed by the most recent pseudo-Nobel prize award:

This year’s Laureates – David Card, Joshua Angrist and Guido Imbens – have shown that natural experiments can be used to answer central questions for society, such as how minimum wages and immigration affect the labour market. …

Another important issue is how the labour market is affected by immigration. To answer this question, we need to know what would have happened if there had not been any immigration. Because immigrants are likely to settle in regions with a growing labour market, simply comparing regions with and without many migrants is not enough to establish a causal relationship. A unique event in the history of the US gave rise to a natural experiment, which David Card used to investigate how immigration affects the labour market. In April 1980, Fidel Castro unexpectedly allowed all Cubans who wished to leave the country to do so. Between May and September, 125,000 Cubans emigrated to the US. Many of them settled in Miami, which entailed an increase in the Miami labour force of around seven per cent. To examine how this huge influx of workers affected the labour market in Miami, David Card compared the wage and employment trends in Miami with the evolution of wages and employment in four comparison cities.

Despite the enormous increase in labour supply, Card found no negative effects for Miami residents with low levels of education. Wages did not fall and unemployment did not increase relative to the other cities. This study generated large amounts of new empirical work, and we now have a better understanding of the effects of immigration.

After all, who ever heard of Miami’s economy in 1980-1984 being in any way different than in the four comparison cities? Surely, the only economic difference among the five cities was Miami’s labor supply shock. Nobody with a Ph.D. in economics has ever noticed that there was a demand shock in Miami in 1980-84.

The economics profession would like to remind everybody that one annoying unmentionable — who has been pointing out for a decade and a half that in 1980 there was a simultaneous demand shock in Miami known as History’s Most Flagrant Cocaine Boom that invalidated Card’s celebrated “natural experiment” by boosting demand in Miami for labor (whether construction workers, maitre d’s, escorts, ethically challenged bankers, drug mules, Jeb Bush, kingpins, or henchmen) — that Scarface, Miami Vice, Cocaine Cowboys, and Narcos were not published in peer-reviewed journals, so, as far as we are concerned, they don’t exist: ergo, nyaah-nyaah-nu-nyaah-nyaah, we economists have our fingers stuck in our ears so we can’t hear you!

The study was utterly idiotic, as it purported to prove that there was no decline in labor prices due to a massive increase in the labor supply, which it did through the application of the Ricardian Vice and ignoring the simultaneous increase in the demand for labor that was fueled by the cocaine industry.

But that’s what passes for the best of mainstream economics today.

An Ugly Metaphor

The inept, unwatchable performance of the Chiefs and Packers is the direct result of the NFL adopting unnecessary pro-vaccine protocols.

The Chiefs’ defense has been a mess all season. Fortunately, today they got to play against Jordan Love. Love, the Packers quarterback making the first start of his career, could do next to nothing as the Chiefs won an ugly game, 13-7. If Aaron Rodgers had played, the Packers almost certainly would have won easily. But Rodgers decided not to get vaccinated, and as a result he’s on the COVID-19 reserve list and his teammates just lost a game they should have won.

No, the NFL chose to create a stupid set of rules, then chose to prevent Rodgers from playing. And as a result, the entertainment product that they are selling suffered. This is an ugly, but accurate metaphor for what is happening all across the USA.

Migration is BAD for the Economy

The statistics from Denmark conclusively prove it:

The net cost of non-western immigration to Denmark, after tax contributions have been deducted, has been revealed to be nearly $5 billion a year.

Yes, really.

The Danish Ministry of Finance revealed in its annual report that the cost amounted to DKK 31 billion ($4.8 billion) in 2018, a figure that leader of the opposition Danish People’s Party, Kristian Thulesen Dahl described as “astronomical.”

“The figure is based on state spending for public services related to immigration and welfare benefits received by immigrants and included state expenditures on healthcare, child care, education, and culture,” reports Sputnik.

“By contrast, tax contributions were deducted from the total.”

Apparently, diversity isn’t a strength, it’s actually a huge drain on public resources.

The lie that “immigration is good for the economy”, and its big brother “immigration is necessary for the economy” was always a complete deception. The truth is that some immigration is beneficial to a society, but most of it is detrimental, even when it is beneficial to the economy. This is because it usually represents a permanent transfer of wealth from the native population to the parasitical newcomers.

All those Boomers who hate communism and wax eloquent and teary-eyed over immigrants should reflect upon the fact that immigration is, quite literally, demographic communism.

And quality matters far more than quantity. Mexicans create Mexico wherever they go in sufficient numbers, just as Scandinavians bring along their competence and naive cucketry wherever they settle. This is no secret to anyone, but it is a truth that has been ruthlessly obscured by relentless lies.

Fake President, Alleged Abuse

The FBI’s efforts in attempting to discover the leak of Ashley Biden’s diary strongly suggests its legitimacy despite its insinuations of child abuse by the alleged “President of the United States”:

While O’Keefe’s organization – a conservative-leaning muckraking outfit – had refused to publish the diary, they did claim to know where it was located and even alleged to have an audio recording of Biden herself admitting it was hers. In his video on Friday, O’Keefe said that the group was approached by tipsters who stayed “temporarily” in the same hotel room as Biden’s daughter, claiming that she “abandoned” the diary.

O’Keefe said that PV had turned the diary over to law enforcement after first reaching out to Ashley Biden’s attorney, who “refused to authenticate it.” O’Keefe said that he contacted the Department of Justice on his own volition and “conveyed unassailable facts that demonstrate[d] Project Veritas’ lack of involvement in criminal activity and/or criminal intent.” The group said it opted not to publish the diary because it couldn’t verify its contents or whether it truly belonged to Ashley Biden.

Despite initially adhering to the agency’s wishes – according to O’Keefe, at least – the FBI visits were followed up shortly by a call from a Times reporter demanding comment on the legal process. The FBI declined to confirm the raids, telling the Times that they “performed law enforcement activity related to an ongoing investigation” at two addresses without elaboration.

While Ashley Biden’s diary is bristling with potential bombshells – including repeated discussion of drug use, marital failure, multiple affairs and her issues with her father, whom she claimed to have showered with in situations that were “probably not appropriate” – the document was largely ignored by other conservative outlets and mainstream media. The diary also suggested that the younger Biden was sexually molested as a child.

Given Hunter Biden’s obvious psychological issues, it wouldn’t be even remotely surprising to learn he was sexually abused too.

Think it’s unlikely for a major politician to be a pedophile? The statistical odds are much higher than you might think:

AUSTRALIA: The List of the 28 Pedophile Politicians Has Been Released

The reason Australia’s pedo-protecting government gave on why they couldn’t release the results of the pedophile investigation was because they said it would cause people to lose faith in the system. Too late, faith is already lost. So Patriots released the list, and it is Patriots that’ll be administering justice.

5th Circuit Stays Vaccine Mandate

This isn’t over, but it’s a good start:

An appeals court has issued a stay and temporarily halted Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate for businesses with 100 or more employees. The ruling in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit came after multiple states’ attorney generals filed lawsuits against the administration.

The court said that they found “grave statutory and constitutional” issues with the mandate.
