A bold vision for Christians who want to engage the world in a way that is biblically faithful and culturally sensitive.
Biblical Critical Theory: How the Bible’s Unfolding Story Makes Sense of Modern Life
& Culture – Kindle edition by Watkin, Christopher, Keller, Tim. Religion & Spirituality Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.

Critical theories exist to critique what we think we know about reality and the social, political, and cultural structures in which we live. In doing so, they make visible the
values and beliefs of a culture in order to scrutinize and change them.

Biblical Critical Theory exposes and evaluates the often-hidden assumptions
and concepts that shape late-modern society, examining them through the lens
of the biblical story running from Genesis to Revelation, and asking urgent questions like:
How does the Bible’s storyline help us understand our society, our culture, and ourselves?
How do specific doctrines help us engage thoughtfully in the philosophical, political, and social questions of our day?? How can we analyze and critique culture and its alternative critical theories through Scripture???

Informed by the biblical-theological structure of Saint Augustine’s magisterial work
The City of God (and with extensive diagrams and practical tools), Biblical Critical Theory shows how the patterns of the Bible’s storyline can provide incisive, fresh, and nuanced ways of intervening in today’s debates on everything from science, the arts, and politics to dignity, multiculturalism, and equality. You’ll learn the moves to make and the tools to use in analyzing and engaging with all sorts of cultural artifacts and events in a way that is both biblically faithful and culturally relevant.

It is not enough for Christians to explain the Bible to the culture or cultures in which
we live. We must also explain the culture in which we live within the framework and categories of the Bible, revealing the whole of the Bible sheds light on the whole of life.
If Christians want to speak with a fresh, engaging, and dynamic voice in the marketplace of ideas today, we need to mine the unique treasures of the distinctive biblical storyline.

The existence of extraterrestrial life remains unanswered! Till when then?
If the existence of extraterrestrial intelligence is impossible, then intelligence
would not have appeared on planet Earth either.

I have not come across any sources that provide conclusive proof of life existing
beyond Earth in all my readings. Furthermore, there are additional scientific theories
that I find puzzling or illogical. ALSO, they either already exist or will soon be born))

Even if certain details elude us, we can continue to push the boundaries of knowledge and understanding. So let us embrace the unknown and keep exploring! #Science #Mysteries #Exploration #UdineseNapoli #MayThe4thBeWithYou

Bien plus que de savoir exactement quand la vie est apparue peut-être que la question aujourd’hui est : combien de temps reste t’il avant la prochaine extinction de masse et quelle en sera la cause ? Serons-nous la météorite tueuse de vie de cette ère?

Science says the Universe was created by the Big bang 13 billion years ago.
According to science no object can move faster than the speed of light.
Then how come the size of the universe is 94 billion light years.

Only God can do this.
We aren’t going to live long enough to know what SCIENCE will answer 80 years

Science can only allow it by the Creator. Our human capacity is not prepared

End Times will occur when man questions GOD over science!!!
When men and science come together, the answers will be revealed.
Furthermore, scientific knowledge is in accordance with our understanding.

Science has become more politicized and influenced by corporations with agendas.
We will have less chance of getting truthful explanations on anything.
The more they prove previous theories wrong the more they double down on those.

The holy spirit is a tri-un being consisting of God: father, son and holy spirit.
They exist as one and cannot be separated. But they can act separately.

Scientists on the other hand can’t understand the presence of either.
For you to understand the presence of the holy spirit,
‘you have to understand the presence of God and Jesus.

Hence the conclusion…Which doesn’t exist
How/when/why does something composed
of inanimate matter turn into a conscious being??

Development in human history always began at
a point where a question always seemed insoluble.

Felix Cartal Worry feat Victoria Zaro – Search (bing.com)

This is possibly the best argument about life after death.

I have read “In a mother’s womb were two babies. One asked the other: “Do you believe in life after delivery?” The other replied, “Why, of course. There has to be something after delivery. Maybe we are here too prepare ourselves for what we will be later.” 1/

“Nonsense,” said the first. “There is no life after delivery. What kind of life would that be?” The second said, “I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths. 2/

Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t understand now.”
New study reveals a major issue with meat that most people aren’t aware of: ‘The science
is actually quite clear’ (msn.com) The first replied, “That is absurd. Walking is impossible. And eating with our mouths? Ridiculous…The umbilical cord supplies nutrition and also everything we need. But the umbilical cord is so short. 3/

Life after delivery is to be logically excluded.” The second insisted, “Well I think there is something and maybe it’s different than it is here. Maybe we won’t need this physical cord anymore.” The first replied, “Nonsense. And moreover, if there is life,
Then why has no one ever come back from there? 4/

Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery, there is nothing but darkness
and silence and oblivion. It takes us nowhere.” “Well, I don’t know,” said the second,
“But certainly, we will meet Mother and she will take… care for us.” 5/

The first replied, “Mother? You actually believe in Mother? That’s laughable.
If Mother exists, then where is She now?” The second said, “She is all around
us. We are surrounded by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that we live.
Without Her, this world would not and could not exist.” 6/

Said the first: “Well I don’t see Her, so it is only logical that She doesn’t exist.” To which the second replied, “Sometimes, when you’re in silence and you focus and listen, you can perceive Her presence, and you can hear Her loving voice, calling… down from above.” – Parable from Your Sacred Self by Dr. Wayne Dyer. 7/

Remember this… “Only fools say in their hearts, “There is no God.” They are corrupt,
and their actions are evil; not one of them does good!” __ Psalm 14:1. 8/

Is it possible to live an ethical life without the perception of the existence of God?
From nonliving to living matter is organized to life by the one supreme creator beyond matter called God or the Allah swt. Whereas fact of the matter is that science has no proof to state that God does not exist. 9/

And yet many scientific observations indicate the existence of God, yet the scientific community chose to close its mind. One cannot even ask this fundamental question from scientists. 10/

‘There is Only ONE True religion & that is Islam!’-Say Muslims.
‘There is Only ONE True religion & that is Christianity!’-Say Christians.
If ‘There is Only ONE True religion’ is taken reference, then one of the
two MUST be false! Who is False out of these two then?

But the question where humans originated from and how human’s spirits will live after they die: science cannot answer consciousness? soul? eternity? a Creator? Who made All? Science only might declare the things about matter not the spiritual world.

Science just basks in the euphoria of theories without substantial evidence. Like it took us millions of years to evolve, so what next shall we evolve into? Nobody was and would be alive to witness this claim. How did nature design itself in the manner in which it did?

That’s what I would call… naively optimistic. accepting that we will NOT in fact understand all, ever, is the first step to understanding a little bit. Although (wo)men
have made great discoveries and will continue to do so, your claim is myopic.
As science advances we find that things are more and more complex.
One answer causes a thousand more questions.

Professing to be wise they became fools. St Paul – Search (bing.com)
If you cannot create life where no life exists, how did it all begin? Science can’t answer
this question truthfully and they will go against science, so they don’t have to say ‘Creator’.
The intricacies of life, the depth and beauty can’t have come from a large firecracker…

Details that were deprived of spotlight. Was that uncovered due to people’s
ignorance and lack of technicality? And that accounts for nothing. Therefore,
time is where negligence has occurred, and it is a matter of time.

Limited space is limited knowledge to comprehend time, time is a tricky concept to enter without insight, i quote somebody next to curie, imagination is more important than knowledge, and this is within time out of space, enjoy this brain riddle, the ninth salute Time is never 0f the present, it’s always in the past or future. Think about that?

Nonsense, science will never solve the great philosophical questions.

Actually science is better at answering details than the overall picture.
In fact it is impossible for science to answer general questions that pertain
to the realm of metaphysics. Science is in nature specialized, and therefore,
it does not teach anything about the nature of reality.

Science just basks in the euphoria of theories without substantial evidence. Like it took us millions of years to evolve, so what next shall we evolve into? Nobody was and would be alive to witness this claim. How did nature design itself in the manner in which it did?

That’s what I would call… naively optimistic. accepting that we will NOT in fact understand all, ever, is the first step to understanding a little bit. Although (wo)men
have made great discoveries and will continue to do so, your claim is myopic.
As science advances we find that things are more and more complex.
One answer causes a thousand more questions.

Professing to be wise they became fools. St Paul – Search (bing.com)
If you cannot create life where no life exists, how did it all begin? Science can’t answer
this question truthfully and they will go against science, so they don’t have to say ‘Creator’.
The intricacies of life, the depth and beauty can’t have come from a large firecracker…

Details that were deprived of spotlight. Was that uncovered due to people’s
ignorance and lack of technicality? And that accounts for nothing. Therefore,
time is where negligence has occurred, and it is a matter of time.

Limited space is limited knowledge to comprehend time, time is a tricky concept to enter without insight, i quote somebody next to curie, imagination is more important than knowledge, and this is within time out of space, enjoy this brain riddle, the ninth salute Time is never 0f the present, it’s always in the past or future. Think about that?

Nonsense, science will never solve the great philosophical questions.

Actually science is better at answering details than the overall picture.
In fact it is impossible for science to answer general questions that pertain
to the realm of metaphysics. Science is in nature specialized, and therefore,
it does not teach anything about the nature of reality.

Study finds New York is sinking | Watch (msn.com)

#NewYorkCity’s is continuing to flounder in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic —and most city-dwellers have flocked to southern states, the US #CensusBureau #population revealed.

It may only be 5.3% but I bet it’s much more than that in tax base lost.
NYC lost 5.3% of its population — nearly a half-million people — since COVID, with most heading South (nypost.com) The real sad story is that 94.7% were too stupid to leave!

Little do the people remaining realize for whatever reason, that THEY will be carrying
the FINANCIAL BURDEN of ALL of the cost of what it takes to run a city. Will they only awaken to REALITY, when their HOSPITAL IS BANKRUPT & shuts down? Or when they lose a family member, or a child is kidnapped or ODs on fentanyl or someone is murdered?

Can’t Blame them. And they are taking their wealth with them.
New York City will have to raise Taxes and fees on the poor working slobs $tuck there.
In a Shit hole city that smells like sewage and weed with a felon around each corner, with high prices, bad weather, what’s not to like…..oh, I forgot the hospitable lunatics who run the state there. It is really wonderful to see.

The stench starts with farts in Manhattan from Bragg and Prosecutors where no bail
and defund police tatters shout out while crime spikes, then you find poop in the streets everywhere Eric walks as he cries for help for too many Biden aliens, but Erica never tells Biden to stop, then we have a full diarrhea when Gov. Kathy Hochul and your so-called
AG Letitia James continue killing the entire state bylaws against citizens, fraudulent elections, violence encouraged and so many lives snuffed out. There are reasons that
NYC smells these days, and it is because of WOKE politicians!

Governor Hochul Announces $8 Million Now Available
for New Climate Smart Community Projects Wokeness is a very serious illness.
Its cause and effect is wide ranging. Soon only 100% imbeciles will reside there with illegals taking their jobs away for a third of the price. If you want to see stupid watch
New York state. The ones who moved are not unemployed immigrants, they were taxpayers, and some were big time taxpayers. They leave because of high crime,
taxes and worries about kids going to school in New York.

Goodbye N.Y.C. They don’t care they shipwreck your city.
It’s what the Dumbasses voted for, so no sympathy given out here!

BUT DON’T WORRY THEY WiLL PICK UP 5 MILLION NEW Illegal VOTES.
That’s the entire reason for the flood of illegals. New democrat voters.

Citizens have the same authority and rights as police. Citizens must form coalitions
and arrest evil swamp politicians and hold them for trial by a patriot judge and jury.
If they attempt to escape or harm us or by others we use deadly force.

The Constitution protects citizens from tyrannical govt.

And This is a tyrannical government.
It is our God given right and duty to defend ourselves against tyranny and a treasonous govt. The time has come, we must engage against a tyrannous FBI, CIA, DHS, White House, etc. All branches are corrupt and disregard the Law of the Land & The Constitution of the United States. These Crooks shouldn’t be above the law. They don’t get to make up their own rules. We the People must rise and defend ourselves. Let’s do it already! God save us!

The DA Alvin the Chipmunk’s office is a disgrace letting killers out of jail. People getting hurt on the subway then you have that jackass Mayor what do you expect? Let’s not forget sanctuary city the place is a mess we need to get those Democrats out of office as soon as possible they do not care about the people the only thing they care about is staying in office and embezzling a lot of money they destroyed our city and as for the governor,
Elvira she’s no good either another scam artist!

If you’re going to post these stories, then tell the WHOLE/entire story Yes, ppl sees moving from states like NY, Cali etc.. But there’s also just as many ppl moving TO those states, as well. And if you owned a home for numerous years, like my aunt, you made a NIIICE profit! FYI…rents in those states are still high & still being occupied. Both parties act & use the same BS tactics. IMO, we need to get rid of these corrupt two-party systems & have term limits!

One day when all the working people and businesses have left NYC, the only people
there will be welfare recipients. They will continue to vote for Democrats until the Dem politicians leave because there are no tax dollars to steal. Then they will pass laws to give themselves a million handouts but suddenly it will dawn on them that all the people with money have left. The real question is if Dems leaving California and New York will vote Democrat in their new locations. These people who vote Dem are carriers of a dangerous virus that we cannot afford to allow to spread. Will the FBI be monitoring the migration of these individuals who threaten the future of the nation?

Looks like more and more are getting ‘fed-up’ with the BS in NYC…!
The problem for most of these escape’s they bring their shitty politics with them, why?
It’s simple, they only please themselves! Good place for Brandon’s illegal aliens. MS13 will love the concrete jungle and the former NY cop turned mayor will keep the crime rate high so the demonic-rats will have fun after dark. N.Y.C. will become a paradise for the demonic-rats who love satan and his lies, imho.

Most are incapable of learning selfishness produces selfishness. Within a short time its regulation after regulation, taxes go up, new courthouses, new attorneys creating new laws to justify their existence, and magically the same BS they escaped from destroys another community. And the reverse is true when illegal come across the borders it is much easier to destroy freedom than to create it. You want division, hatred, mandates, schools with woke teachers? Escape’s aren’t coming to be a part of you, but to selfishly take what is yours. The South doesn’t want them; there is no way to separate them from their entitled mentality.

Don’t go to Florida and fk-up that state like you did in NY. Jacksonville is regressing.
They just got a Democratic mayor. Last time was in 2011. We don’t want Dems moving
to FL. Republicans are welcomed to help us do better. They want workers ~ not Wokers.

The free world faces a troubling new challenge (msn.com)

How Florida’s new immigration law will affect undocumented workers

Miami Overtakes New York As the Shining Beacon of Freedom, Liberty, and Prosperity There have never been as many towers over 500 feet tall under construction in Miami
as in 2022 with 22 towers.
This year will also mark the first supertall building ever to begin construction in Miami, with the Waldorf Astoria Hotel and Residences. At a height of 1,040 feet, the 100-story tower will be the tallest all-residential building south of New York.

Florida migration: Who’s moving to the Sunshine state? New York.
Extraordinary events have forever pushed and pulled and pressured U.S. population shifts from gold lust to the citrus rush to the restless return of WWII soldiers to revolutions in foreign lands and civil war on southern soil.

Now there is COVID-19, which has turned a years-long trickle to Florida from the northeast into a deluge.

More than 547,000 people exchanged out-of-state driver’s licenses last year for ones with Sunshine State addresses. That’s a 40% increase from 2020 and nearly 20% greater than the five-year average between 2017 and 2021.
The license swaps — largely from New York (11%), New Jersey (6%) and foreign countries (14%) — are acutely felt in Florida real estate markets where inventory is anemic and prices aggressive.

New homebuyers beware:
Rising mortgage rates, rent prices may dash those starter home dreams
Staggering rent increases: Florida rent hikes were “on another level” last year. Increases continue with no end in sight
Ranked housing markets: Report finds Florida housing market overvalued,
but southeast Florida’s rank was shocking

Demographers believe the relocations are no tropical dalliance because a driver’s license switch is a sign of determination to make Florida home even if hurricane season and August’s sweltering humidity are spent in cooler climes away from storms and sticky air.

“Unquestionably the COVID impact was the trigger,” said Related Cos. President Ken Himmel about the influx of people and businesses to Florida and Palm Beach County specifically. “Unquestionably, COVID turned the switch on full blast.”

While the bullseye markets, such as Palm Beach County, may experience the ache of rising rents and home prices until inventory increases, growth experts were reluctant to say the COVID migration on a nationwide scale will make history.

Some move to the suburbs was already happening as millennials age. A bump in retirees was also expected, although it was likely expedited by the Great Resignation/Retirement, the euphemism signaling massive waves of frustrated workers and Baby Boomers exiting the job market.

Vanderbilt University Assistant Finance Professor Peter Haslag said COVID-related dispersions are more geographically diverse than past migrations, diluting long-term impacts.

Moving to Florida is nothing new
For Florida, migration is tradition.

“Migration to Florida is an old story,” said University of Washington professor and historian James Gregory in an article for America’s Great Migrations Project that noted the early 1900s citrus and land boom in the state. “More than any other state, Florida has consistently attracted newcomers.”

Of the 61,728 New Yorkers who in 2021 handed over Empire State driver’s licenses for a Florida license, 19,100 or 31% got IDs with Broward, Miami-Dade or Palm Beach County Zip codes. Palm Beach County accounted for 8,107 of the transplants, the largest share of any county in the state.

Outside of the Gold Coast counties of Southeast Florida, a weighty exchange of New York licenses last year also occurred in Orange (4,203), Hillsborough (3,746), Lee (2,672), Pinellas (2,335) and Sarasota (2,149) counties.

Sarasota home values skyrocket: Sarasota metro home values went up by a third in 2021, more than double the national average

How much? You won’t believe the total sales at the most expensive condo in Palm Beach County

For native New Yorker Sandford Burian, 59, the reward for his 90-minute commute into the city from Long Island was the entertainment — a ball game or show — a nice dinner and a “zillion corporate events” to partake in after work.

With COVID restrictions shutting down much of the city and most people working
from home, the recompense for the daily slog into Manhattan was gone, he said.

Burian and his wife Heidi, 58, recently bought a home in the Avenir community in
Palm Beach Gardens and plan to become Florida residents. A home already sold under construction in the Windgate subdivision in Avenir, in Palm Beach Gardens, Wednesday, January 26, 2022.

“Maybe you were coming home late but there were these big, unique experiences
you had every day in the city,” said Burian, who is renting a home in West Palm Beach
until the Avenir residence is finished this summer. “None of that exists now.

It makes the tolerance for the commute even harder.”
When Burian’s job as a management and technology consultant went remote, Florida’s better weather and tax benefits beckoned. The pushback from younger employees about returning to offices full time made Burian dubious about what the future holds for New York City.

“We saw how much the pandemic devastated New York City and I’m not sure I want
to be around for the recovery or for how long that recovery will take,” he said. “Unless the working model literally reverted back to what it was traditionally where everyone had to be in the office every day, I don’t think people are going back.”

In early 2021, the Partnership for New York City sent a letter to New York state lawmakers warning that 300,000 city residents of “higher income neighborhoods” had filed for a change of address with the U.S. Postal Service and that Florida, Texas, North Carolina and Maryland were aggressively pursuing New York companies.

“The top 5% of earners pay 62% of state personal income taxes,” the letter said.
“These high earners do not want to abandon New York, but at some point, it does
not make sense to stay where the business climate is deteriorating, and costs are rising.”

Moving to Florida ‘feels liberating’
After selling a home in Darien, Connecticut, and moving full time to a second home in the Hamptons, Tom and Cricket Cush decided Florida was where they wanted to settle. While the beaches and sunshine are a main attraction, Tom said he feels the “spirit and attitude” in Florida during COVID has been more optimistic than in New York.

“It’s a glass is half full,” said Cush, who is building a home in West Palm Beach.
“I will tell you as a born and bred New Yorker, coming down here, it feels liberating.”

He echoed Burian’s lament of the long commute into New York but said it was something he did for more than two decades because that’s what everyone did, and other options were limited. “The pandemic changed that perspective for a lot of people,” he said.

West Palm Beach fit for the couple because they enjoy boating and it has cosmopolitan amenities such as the Norton Museum of Art, tony restaurants and a busy downtown.
The things they enjoyed; they can still relish “with the added advantage of the weather” Cush said.

Finding an affordable home: No matter what region in Florida,
it’s getting harder to find that magical $250,000 house

Florida counties where people are moving
Miami-Dade County took the top spot for the most license swaps with 48,266. Of those, half were from “foreign countries.” Following Miami-Dade County were Hillsborough (36,626), Orange (35,582), Broward (34,084), and Palm Beach (33,859).

Jeff Lichtenstein, owner and broker of Echo Fine Properties, which helped Burian find a home in Avenir, said competition from transplants means new communities are getting myriad reservations on homes before ground is even broken.

“The strategies a buyer has to go through now are just insane,” he said. “We’re figuring out on the front end what the seller wants, what the agent wants when we write offers. We’re pre-booking inspections, filling out all the forms and doing all the things they are going to ask for.”

Peter Haslag, the Vanderbilt University professor, released a study in October titled “From L.A. to Boise: How Migration has Changed during the COVID-19 Pandemic.” – Search (bing.com)

Boise, Idaho’s state capital city, has consistently ranked over the past year as the most overvalued housing market in the nation as remote workers flocked to an area revered for its outdoor activities and considered one of the “best cities to raise a family.”

Haslag said a permanent change in peoples’ lifestyle preferences has occurred and that the shifts in populations are unlikely to reverse in the near future.

“I don’t have anyone calling me saying they want to move back to New York,” said Douglas Elliman Realtor Joseph Wagner, who spent most of the pandemic in Florida and is licensed in Florida and New York. “Some people miss it, but most of them just want to have a spare bedroom in New York and live in Florida.”

Rising housing prices not a steal? Who cares, say transplants.
Wagner said that while buyers know they aren’t getting a deal with their Florida real estate purchases, it’s still cheaper than buying and living in New York. “It’s a seller’s market. They don’t care,” he said. “They just don’t want to pay New York state taxes.”

Wagner was reluctant to share names of his New York clients.

In early January, letters asking “woke” New Yorkers to leave Florida were put on cars in Palm Beach that had New York license plates. The notices — written in capital letters — read: “If you are one of those ‘woke’ people — leave Florida.
You will be happier elsewhere, as will we.”

Chris Porter, chief demographer at John Burns Real Estate Consulting, said he’s heard anecdotally on a national level some tension between locals and newcomers but it’s been focused on the increasing prices, not politics.

Cush said he’s felt no tension. He said he was careful to tell his new neighbors about the plans for the property he bought and said he hopes long-time residents are patient with the changes. “Maybe they’ll even appreciate it a little that their property values will go up,” Cush said.

Top 10 heading to Florida
Foreign countries made up the largest license exchanges in Florida last year with 46,370. That was followed by New York’s 42,224, and New Jersey’s 32,083.

Statewide, California ranked fourth highest in the number of driver’s license exchanges in 2021 with 27,081 — a notable 43% higher than the 5-year average and 55% higher than 2020.

Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Texas, Ohio and Virginia rounded out the top 10 of most license swaps. All were higher than the 5-year average.

Nearly 1,900 of the 2021 California changes were made to Palm Beach County addresses. While that’s small compared to the number from the northeast, it’s 51% higher than the 5-year average and 63% higher than 2020.

New York transplant Burian said despite the dispersed migration nationwide, he believes South Florida will feel a profound impact from the northeast newcomers who may have different — if not more expensive — demands and bigger checkbooks for donations to the arts and charities.

“I think a lot of affluence is coming down here and the heavy hitters are moving down and the qualitative demands of these people are huge,” Burian said. “The question is what’s going to happen to New York.”

Who’s moving here?
A COVID-19 exodus from the Northeast had more people exchange out of
state driver’s licenses for Florida IDs last year compared to the 5-year average.

Now there is COVID-19, which has turned a years-long trickle to Florida from the northeast into a deluge.

More than 547,000 people exchanged out-of-state driver’s licenses last year for ones with Sunshine State addresses. That’s a 40% increase from 2020 and nearly 20% greater than the five-year average between 2017 and 2021.
The license swaps — largely from New York (11%), New Jersey (6%) and foreign countries (14%) — are acutely felt in Florida real estate markets where inventory is anemic and prices aggressive.

New homebuyers beware:
Rising mortgage rates, rent prices may dash those starter home dreams
Staggering rent increases: Florida rent hikes were “on another level” last year. Increases continue with no end in sight
Ranked housing markets: Report finds Florida housing market overvalued,
but southeast Florida’s rank was shocking

Demographers believe the relocations are no tropical dalliance because a driver’s license switch is a sign of determination to make Florida home even if hurricane season and August’s sweltering humidity are spent in cooler climes away from storms and sticky air.

“Unquestionably the COVID impact was the trigger,” said Related Cos. President Ken Himmel about the influx of people and businesses to Florida and Palm Beach County specifically. “Unquestionably, COVID turned the switch on full blast.”

While the bullseye markets, such as Palm Beach County, may experience the ache of rising rents and home prices until inventory increases, growth experts were reluctant to say the COVID migration on a nationwide scale will make history.

Some move to the suburbs was already happening as millennials age. A bump in retirees was also expected, although it was likely expedited by the Great Resignation/Retirement, the euphemism signaling massive waves of frustrated workers and Baby Boomers exiting the job market.

Vanderbilt University Assistant Finance Professor Peter Haslag said COVID-related dispersions are more geographically diverse than past migrations, diluting long-term impacts.

Moving to Florida is nothing new
For Florida, migration is tradition.

“Migration to Florida is an old story,” said University of Washington professor and historian James Gregory in an article for America’s Great Migrations Project that noted the early 1900s citrus and land boom in the state. “More than any other state, Florida has consistently attracted newcomers.”

Of the 61,728 New Yorkers who in 2021 handed over Empire State driver’s licenses for a Florida license, 19,100 or 31% got IDs with Broward, Miami-Dade or Palm Beach County Zip codes. Palm Beach County accounted for 8,107 of the transplants, the largest share of any county in the state.

Outside of the Gold Coast counties of Southeast Florida, a weighty exchange of New York licenses last year also occurred in Orange (4,203), Hillsborough (3,746), Lee (2,672), Pinellas (2,335) and Sarasota (2,149) counties.

Sarasota home values skyrocket: Sarasota metro home values went up by a third in 2021, more than double the national average

How much? You won’t believe the total sales at the most expensive condo in Palm Beach County

For native New Yorker Sandford Burian, 59, the reward for his 90-minute commute into the city from Long Island was the entertainment — a ball game or show — a nice dinner and a “zillion corporate events” to partake in after work.

With COVID restrictions shutting down much of the city and most people working
from home, the recompense for the daily slog into Manhattan was gone, he said.

Burian and his wife Heidi, 58, recently bought a home in the Avenir community in
Palm Beach Gardens and plan to become Florida residents. A home already sold under construction in the Windgate subdivision in Avenir, in Palm Beach Gardens, Wednesday, January 26, 2022.

“Maybe you were coming home late but there were these big, unique experiences
you had every day in the city,” said Burian, who is renting a home in West Palm Beach
until the Avenir residence is finished this summer. “None of that exists now.

It makes the tolerance for the commute even harder.”
When Burian’s job as a management and technology consultant went remote, Florida’s better weather and tax benefits beckoned. The pushback from younger employees about returning to offices full time made Burian dubious about what the future holds for New York City.

“We saw how much the pandemic devastated New York City and I’m not sure I want
to be around for the recovery or for how long that recovery will take,” he said. “Unless the working model literally reverted back to what it was traditionally where everyone had to be in the office every day, I don’t think people are going back.”

In early 2021, the Partnership for New York City sent a letter to New York state lawmakers warning that 300,000 city residents of “higher income neighborhoods” had filed for a change of address with the U.S. Postal Service and that Florida, Texas, North Carolina and Maryland were aggressively pursuing New York companies.

“The top 5% of earners pay 62% of state personal income taxes,” the letter said.
“These high earners do not want to abandon New York, but at some point, it does
not make sense to stay where the business climate is deteriorating, and costs are rising.”

Moving to Florida ‘feels liberating’
After selling a home in Darien, Connecticut, and moving full time to a second home in the Hamptons, Tom and Cricket Cush decided Florida was where they wanted to settle. While the beaches and sunshine are a main attraction, Tom said he feels the “spirit and attitude” in Florida during COVID has been more optimistic than in New York.

“It’s a glass is half full,” said Cush, who is building a home in West Palm Beach.
“I will tell you as a born and bred New Yorker, coming down here, it feels liberating.”

He echoed Burian’s lament of the long commute into New York but said it was something he did for more than two decades because that’s what everyone did, and other options were limited. “The pandemic changed that perspective for a lot of people,” he said.

West Palm Beach fit for the couple because they enjoy boating and it has cosmopolitan amenities such as the Norton Museum of Art, tony restaurants and a busy downtown.
The things they enjoyed; they can still relish “with the added advantage of the weather” Cush said.

Finding an affordable home: No matter what region in Florida,
it’s getting harder to find that magical $250,000 house

Florida counties where people are moving
Miami-Dade County took the top spot for the most license swaps with 48,266. Of those, half were from “foreign countries.” Following Miami-Dade County were Hillsborough (36,626), Orange (35,582), Broward (34,084), and Palm Beach (33,859).

Jeff Lichtenstein, owner and broker of Echo Fine Properties, which helped Burian find a home in Avenir, said competition from transplants means new communities are getting myriad reservations on homes before ground is even broken.

“The strategies a buyer has to go through now are just insane,” he said. “We’re figuring out on the front end what the seller wants, what the agent wants when we write offers. We’re pre-booking inspections, filling out all the forms and doing all the things they are going to ask for.”

Peter Haslag, the Vanderbilt University professor, released a study in October titled “From L.A. to Boise: How Migration has Changed during the COVID-19 Pandemic.” – Search (bing.com)

Boise, Idaho’s state capital city, has consistently ranked over the past year as the most overvalued housing market in the nation as remote workers flocked to an area revered for its outdoor activities and considered one of the “best cities to raise a family.”

Haslag said a permanent change in peoples’ lifestyle preferences has occurred and that the shifts in populations are unlikely to reverse in the near future.

“I don’t have anyone calling me saying they want to move back to New York,” said Douglas Elliman Realtor Joseph Wagner, who spent most of the pandemic in Florida and is licensed in Florida and New York. “Some people miss it, but most of them just want to have a spare bedroom in New York and live in Florida.”

Rising housing prices not a steal? Who cares, say transplants.
Wagner said that while buyers know they aren’t getting a deal with their Florida real estate purchases, it’s still cheaper than buying and living in New York. “It’s a seller’s market. They don’t care,” he said. “They just don’t want to pay New York state taxes.”

Wagner was reluctant to share names of his New York clients.

In early January, letters asking “woke” New Yorkers to leave Florida were put on cars in Palm Beach that had New York license plates. The notices — written in capital letters — read: “If you are one of those ‘woke’ people — leave Florida.
You will be happier elsewhere, as will we.”

Chris Porter, chief demographer at John Burns Real Estate Consulting, said he’s heard anecdotally on a national level some tension between locals and newcomers but it’s been focused on the increasing prices, not politics.

Cush said he’s felt no tension. He said he was careful to tell his new neighbors about the plans for the property he bought and said he hopes long-time residents are patient with the changes. “Maybe they’ll even appreciate it a little that their property values will go up,” Cush said.

Top 10 heading to Florida
Foreign countries made up the largest license exchanges in Florida last year with 46,370. That was followed by New York’s 42,224, and New Jersey’s 32,083.

Statewide, California ranked fourth highest in the number of driver’s license exchanges in 2021 with 27,081 — a notable 43% higher than the 5-year average and 55% higher than 2020.

Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Texas, Ohio and Virginia rounded out the top 10 of most license swaps. All were higher than the 5-year average.

Nearly 1,900 of the 2021 California changes were made to Palm Beach County addresses. While that’s small compared to the number from the northeast, it’s 51% higher than the 5-year average and 63% higher than 2020.

New York transplant Burian said despite the dispersed migration nationwide, he believes South Florida will feel a profound impact from the northeast newcomers who may have different — if not more expensive — demands and bigger checkbooks for donations to the arts and charities.

“I think a lot of affluence is coming down here and the heavy hitters are moving down and the qualitative demands of these people are huge,” Burian said. “The question is what’s going to happen to New York.”

Who’s moving here?
A COVID-19 exodus from the Northeast had more people exchange out of
state driver’s licenses for Florida IDs last year compared to the 5-year average.

Climate Science Destroyed In 8 Minutes – YouTube

Here’s what real science has to say. . .Plymouth Rock is still original spot @1620.
Orbital Wobble is the most likely cause. Changes in the Earth’s orbit around the sun
& changes in the tilt & wobble of the Earth’s axis can lead to cooling or warming of the Earth’s climate because they change the amount of energy our planet receives from the sun. Simple as that. Well, yes, but don’t forget solar flare cycles & add some volcanism.

Tell the countries to stop laying CONCRETE OR ASPHALT!!!
ALL of that retains heat over a day and raises the temperature by 3 degrees, from city to urban. I see it happening everyday. More roads and cars isn’t a good idea anymore with all the people in a hurry, it’s pure madness. Even spreading crushed rock on top of soil heats up the surrounding air. It’s development that creates changes in microclimates more than anything except maybe airplane emissions. There’s PLENTY of data on this. Well said, more concrete and surface covering cause more flooding as well, restricted runoff.

Green frauds are the Climate problem.
It’s good to see more and more people realizing Climate Alarmists are
simply perpetuating the Climate Hoax for two reasons. Money and Power!

Recently, I have been interested in the “climate crisis” subject. The Great Global Warming Swindle – YouTube The opinions are somewhat split with regards to this matter so rather than leaning one way or another I have decided to conduct my own research limited by time (only spare time) and access to data. So I have started to read articles and dig as deep as I could into the matter.
Every time I would find useful data in an article, I would extract it and try to combine
it with other data from other articles and interpret it. I need to tell you that this is not how
it works. Quoting articles from where I’ve taken my data and that I have used myself in the
research is not a counter argument. Two days ago I encountered a hidden gem.

You Are What You Eat

Posted on May 18, 2023 by Ken

David Avocado Wolfe Videos @Thanks Pamela Javid Haymes

Your body is replaced by the foods you eat – Bing video
The food pyramid published by the government in the early 1990s was criticized
for being impractical and inaccurate, and fad diets often focus on one food group or another at the expense of nutritional balance. In 2011, the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture (USDA) scrapped the food pyramid in favor of a simpler tool called MyPlate.
It’s not a magic bullet, but it can teach you general habits that make a big difference
in your weight, risk for disease, and well-being. If you don’t know where to start,
MyPlate is for you.

Tips for Success: Even if we have our own gardens, our soil, water and air are being poisoned with chemtrails being poisoned with chemtrails on a daily basis. One would have to grow in a greenhouse in pure soil, with pure water and use heirloom seeds in order to create toxic-free fruits/vegetables.
Since I’ve retired I keep enlarging my garden to grow as much of our own food as possible. I use Praying Mantis for pest control and hand work for weed control.
I would much rather eat a critter than the poisons they sell. Added a greenhouse this year so I also no longer have to buy plants that have been sprayed, now I’m able to start my own plants mid-winter.

Make vegetables exciting: Take the time to experiment with different vegetables and cooking methods until you find options that you look forward to. Roberts also stresses variety as recommended by MyPlate: < Vegan and Blood Test – Bing video >
Different colors and types of vegetables have different benefits.
Use teamwork to make healthy eating convenient: Your coworkers, friends, and family members can encourage each other by planning balanced potlucks, sharing snack ideas (Did you know that popcorn is a whole grain?), and recommending restaurants that allow for MyPlate proportions. If you attend a tailgate, be the hero who brings a leafy green.

Be flexible: Diets are exhausting because they are inflexible, so it may feel like failure when you give up on them. Roberts discourages clients from red-flagging any specific food group. “Enjoy the foods you love in moderation when they matter to you most,” she says.
MyPlate and the tips above are a great start for establishing better eating habits. However, if you are at risk for type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease, a registered dietitian can offer a more personalized diet plan, with progress that is both manageable and measurable.

Can Food Act as Medicine? All You Need to Know
Research shows that dietary habits influence disease risk.
While certain foods may trigger chronic health conditions,
others offer strong medicinal and protective qualities.
What you choose to eat has profound effects on your overall health.
Your body is a temple bible verse – Bing video

When Your Butyrate’s are low cancer risk is high – Bing video

Thus, many people argue that food is medicine.
Yet, diet alone cannot and should not replace medicine in all circumstances. Although many illnesses can be prevented, treated, or even cured by dietary and lifestyle changes, many others cannot. This article explains the medicinal effects of food, including which foods should and shouldn’t be used for healing.

How food nourishes and protects your body
Many nutrients in food promote health and protect your body from disease.
Eating whole, nutritious foods is important because their unique substances work synergistically to create an effect that can’t be replicated by taking a supplement.
Vitamins and minerals
Although your body only needs small amounts of vitamins and minerals, they’re vital
for your health. However, Western diets — high in processed foods and low in whole
foods like fresh produce — are typically deficient in vitamins and minerals.
Such deficiencies can substantially increase your risk of disease (1Trusted Source).

For example, insufficient intakes of vitamin C, vitamin D, and folate may harm your heart, cause immune dysfunction, and increase your risk of certain cancers, respectively (2Trusted Source, 3Trusted Source, 4Trusted Source).
Beneficial plant compounds
Nutritious foods, including vegetables, fruits, beans, and grains,
boast numerous beneficial compounds, such as antioxidants.
Antioxidants protect cells from damage that may otherwise lead to disease (5Trusted Source). In fact, studies demonstrate that people whose diets are rich in polyphenol antioxidants have lower rates of depression, diabetes, dementia, and heart disease (6Trusted Source, 7Trusted Source, 8Trusted Source, 9Trusted Source).

Fiber
Fiber is an essential part of a healthy diet. It not only promotes proper digestion
& elimination but also feeds the beneficial bacteria in your gut (10Trusted Source).
Thus, high-fiber foods like vegetables, beans, grains, and fruits help protect against disease, decrease inflammation, and boost your immune system (11Trusted Source).
On the other hand, low-fiber diets are associated with an increased risk of illnesses, including colon cancer and stroke (12, 13, 14Trusted Source, 15Trusted Source).

Protein and healthy fats
The protein and fat in whole, nutritious foods play various critical roles in your body.
Amino acids — the building blocks of protein — aid immune function, muscle synthesis, metabolism, and growth, while fats provide fuel and help absorb nutrients (16Trusted Source, 17Trusted Source).
Omega-3 fatty acids, which are found in foods like fatty fish, help regulate inflammation and are linked to improved heart and immune health (18Trusted Source).

SUMMARY Whole, nutritious foods boost vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber, protein, and fat, all of which promote health and are key to optimal bodily function.

A healthy diet can decrease disease risk.
Notably, nutritious foods may decrease your risk of disease —
while the opposite is true for highly processed foods.
Unhealthy food choices can increase disease risk.
Unhealthy diets high in sugary drinks, fast food, and refined grains
are a main contributor to conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and obesity.
These processed foods harm your gut bacteria and promote insulin resistance,
chronic inflammation, and overall disease risk (19Trusted Source).
A study in over 100,000 people found that every 10% increase in ultra-processed
food intake resulted in a 12% increase in cancer risk (20Trusted Source).

Additionally, a study on worldwide mortality and disease showed that in 2017,
11 million deaths and 255 million disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) were
likely due to poor diet (21Trusted Source). DALYs measure the burden of disease,
with one unit representing the loss of one year of full health (22Trusted Source).

Nutritious diets protect against disease
On the other hand, research indicates that diets abundant in plant foods and low
in processed products strengthen your health. For instance, the Mediterranean diet,
which is rich in healthy fats, whole grains, and vegetables, is linked to a reduced risk
of heart disease, neurodegenerative conditions, diabetes, certain cancers, and obesity
(23Trusted Source, 24Trusted Source, 25Trusted Source).
Other eating patterns shown to safeguard against disease include plant-based,
whole-food-based, and paleo diets (26Trusted Source, 27Trusted Source).

In fact, some diets may reverse certain conditions.
For example, diets advertised to cure cancer or other serious conditions are typically not backed by research and often prohibitively expensive. Eschewing conventional treatments like chemotherapy for alternative, unproven diets can worsen diseases or lead to death (37Trusted Source, 38, 39Trusted Source).

Selenium, glutathione peroxidase and the immune system!
Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient that is important for various aspects of human health, including proper thyroid hormone metabolism, cardiovascular health, prevention of neurodegeneration and cancer, and optimal immune responses. Very low (deplete) or very high (toxic) levels of Se intake can be detrimental or possibly fatal. Extreme deficiency or toxicity is not commonly found in humans, but selenosis has been reported in cases of miscalculated supplement formulations, suicides, accidental overdose, or intentional poisoning (150, 177, 238).
That said, less overt changes in Se status within an individual may still affect inflammation and immune responses.
The biological effects of Se are mainly exerted through its incorporation into selenoproteins, and selenoproteins are involved in the activation, proliferation, and differentiation of cells that drive innate and adaptive immune responses. Dietary Se and selenoproteins are not only important for initiating or enhancing immunity, but they are also involved in immunoregulation, which is crucial for preventing excessive responses that may lead to autoimmunity or chronic inflammation. It should be noted that most studies in the literature involve modifications to dietary Se, and insights into mechanisms often are not clear, but roles for individual selenoproteins and mechanisms are discussed when data are available.

On a cellular level, dietary Se may influence various leukocytic effector functions including adherence, migration, phagocytosis, and cytokine secretion. Several members of the selenoprotein family regulate or are regulated by cellular redox tone, which is a crucial modulator of immune cell signaling and function. There are also important links between selenoproteins and calcium (Ca²⁺) flux, which is regulated by and regulates the oxidative burst required for optimal immune cell activation. New insights have been gained into specific roles for individual selenoproteins in modulating immune receptor-mediated signaling pathways linked to Ca²⁺ flux and oxidative burst, inducing cytokine production, migration, and other cellular processes.
This article will describe redox-based mechanisms that affect these cellular processes during inflammation and immunity, and how Se and selenoproteins are involved in those processes. The impact of Se on immune-related human physiology and pathophysiology is also discussed, with emphasis placed on disorders related to immunity and chronic inflammation. It should be noted that health issues such as hypertension and cardiovascular diseases have been extensively covered in other reviews (141, 183, 245), and are not included in this article. Finally, issues are raised as to how Se supplementation may be best utilized to enhance or modulate certain types of inflammation and immune responses. Go to:

II. Bioactive Forms of Se and Their Effects
Dietary Se is essential in trace amounts and is attained through a wide variety of food sources including grains, vegetables, seafood, meats, dairy products, and nuts (68). The major form of Se ingested by humans is selenomethionine (Se-Met), although other forms of Se are present in foods. Dietary Se may exert some of its biological effects through small-molecular-weight selenocompounds. For example, both selenite and Se-Met may be metabolized into methylated Se compounds, some of which have cancer chemopreventive effects (113). One example is the inhibition histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma cell lines by methylseleninic acid and the toxic effects this may exert in chemoprevention (125).
In addition, some studies have used the selenoorganic compound, ebselen, to show that macrophage and dendritic cell functions are affected by this small-molecular-weight selenocompound (156, 229). However, there are very few studies that investigate the effects of selenocompounds on inflammation or immunity, and most of the data regarding the biological activity of Se is related to its incorporation into selenoproteins. Thus, this article will mainly focus on the role of selenoproteins in exerting the effects of dietary Se on inflammatory and immune responses. Se is often referred to as an antioxidant, mainly due to the role of certain selenoproteins in detoxifying hydrogen peroxidase or reversing the effects of oxidized lipids or methionine residues. In addition, certain selenoproteins are crucial for regenerating reduced forms of thioredoxin to maintain balanced levels of reduced/oxidized molecules within cells (cellular redox tone) as described in greater detail next.

DISCLAIMER:
Although many foods have strong disease-fighting benefits,
diet should not be considered a replacement for conventional medicine.

Foods with powerful medicinal properties
Berries, cruciferous vegetables, fatty fish, and mushrooms
are just a selection of the foods that offer powerful medicinal properties.

The bottom line
Food does much more than simply provide you with fuel.
It may promote or worsen health, depending on what you eat.
A nutrient-dense diet of whole foods has been shown to prevent
many chronic diseases and may help treat some conditions, such as type 2 diabetes.
Although it’s clear that following a nutritious diet is one of the most important factors
in living a long, healthy life, keep in mind that you should not rely on food to replace conventional medicine.

Metabolism and weight loss: How you burn calories
By Mayo Clinic Staff

Find out how metabolism affects weight, the truth behind slow metabolism and how
to burn more calories. 17 Foods That Resemble Your Body Parts And Their Benefits.
Some people blame their weight on how their body breaks down food into energy,
also known as metabolism. They think their metabolism is too slow.
But is that really the cause? If so, is it possible to speed up the process?
It’s true that the rate at which the body breaks down food is linked to weight.
But a slow metabolism isn’t usually the cause of weight gain.

Metabolism: Converting food into energy
Metabolism does help decide how much energy a body needs.
But weight depends on how much a person eats & drinks combined with physical activity.
Metabolism is the process by which the body changes food and drink into energy.
During this process, calories in food and drinks mix with oxygen to make the energy the body needs. Even at rest, a body needs energy for all it does.
This includes breathing, sending blood through the body, keeping hormone levels even, and growing and repairing cells. The number of calories a body at rest uses to do these things is known as basal metabolic rate, also called basal metabolism.

Muscle mass is the main factor in basal metabolic rate.
Basal metabolic rate also depends on:

Body size and composition.
People who are larger or have more muscle burn more calories, even at rest.
Sex. Men usually have less body fat and more muscle than do women of
the same age and weight. That means men burn more calories.
Age. With aging, people tend to lose muscle.
More of the body’s weight is from fat, which slows calorie burning.
Besides the basal metabolic rate, two other things decide how many
calories a body burns each day:
How the body uses food. Digesting, absorbing, moving and storing food burn calories. About 10% of calories eaten are used for digesting food and taking in nutrients. This can’t be changed much.
How much a body moves. Any movement, such as playing tennis, walking to a store or chasing the dog, makes up the rest of the calories a body burns each day. This can be changed a lot, both by doing more exercise and just moving more during the day.
Daily activity that isn’t exercise is called nonexercised activity thermogenesis (NEAT).
This includes walking around the house. It also includes activities such as gardening and housework, and even fidgeting. NEAT accounts for about 100 to 800 calories used daily.

Metabolism and weight
You might want to blame a medical condition for slow metabolism and weight gain.
But rarely does a medical condition slow metabolism enough to cause a lot of weight gain. Conditions that can cause weight gain include Cushing syndrome or having an underactive thyroid gland, also known as hypothyroidism. These conditions are uncommon.

Many things affect weight gain. These likely include genes, hormones, diet and lifestyle, including sleep, physical activity and stress. You gain weight when you eat more calories than you burn — or burn fewer calories than you eat.
Some people seem to lose weight more quickly and more easily than others. But everyone loses weight by burning more calories than are eaten. The bottom line is calories count.

FOOT NOTED: To lose weight the best way is always,
if you need to lose weight is eat fewer calories or burn
more calories through physical activity. Or you can do both.

A closer look at physical activity and metabolism.
You can’t easily control the speed of your basal metabolic rate, but you can control how many calories you burn through physical activity. The more active you are, the more calories you burn. In fact, some people who seem to have a fast metabolism are probably just more active — and maybe fidget more — than others.

To burn more calories:
The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans recommends the following:
Aerobic activity. As a general goal, aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity every day. If you want to lose weight, maintain weight loss or meet specific fitness goals, you may need to exercise more.
Moderate aerobic exercise includes activities such as brisk walking, biking, swimming and mowing the lawn. Vigorous aerobic exercise includes activities such as running, heavy yard work and aerobic dancing.
Strength training. Do strength training exercises for all major muscle groups at least two times a week. Strength training can include use of weight machines, your own body weight, heavy bags, resistance tubing or resistance paddles in the water, or activities such as rock climbing.

There is No magic bullet.
Don’t look to dietary supplements for help in burning calories or losing weight.
Products that claim to speed up metabolism usually don’t live up to their claims.

Some may cause bad side effects.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration doesn’t ask for
proof that dietary supplements are safe or that they work.
Question the claims that are made and always let your
doctor providers know about supplements you take.

There’s no easy way to lose weight.
To take in fewer calories than you burn, the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends cutting 500 to 750 calories a day to lose 1 to 1.5 pounds (0.5 to 0.7 kilograms) a week. Add more physical activity to get to your weight-loss goals faster and also maintain your weight loss. A health care provider, such as a doctor or registered dietitian, can help you explore ways to lose weight.

Corporate Media Runs With George Soros ‘Holocaust Survivor’ Lie – PJ Media

Story of 11 yr old Gerorge as a General in the Nazi party – Bing video
SOROS is a MOTHER FU..R and WAS A NAZI COLLABORATOR AND NOW
TURNED COMMUNIST AND IS RUINING THE JUSTICE IN THE USA.

Soros is a sick simian semitic socialist. – Search (bing.com)
Listening to his interview he was an acting agent of the nazi party.
Surprisingly they did not try him for war crimes. I am sure he kept some
property and that’s how he got his wealth. He is the lowest form of life.

He is a front for George Soros Wallenberg’s banking family (Sweden). Look into it.
It’s not for me to say if he’s just a communist poc or that trading Holocaust experience really did something to him… I’d venture to guess his rationalization goes something
like this: ‘Superiority breeds atrocity, thus; Tear down all things Superior.’
He’s the penultimate victim of Socialism – whether it be of the National or the Global
kind – but of course, it’s a trying task to feel sorry for someone dealing the damage
(and ultimately, suffering) this guy does.

George Soros – Google Search

Enough of the racial boxes. Evil is evil.
Who cares what race or religion someone is born into- and btw Soros is an atheist.
Who cares what people are – black, white, brown — all that matters is wh0 they are.
People with character and decency know this.

Elon Musk claims George Soros ‘hates humanity.’
What is going on–Soros was responsible for aiding the Nazi’s during
World War II in destroying the lives of his neighbors & some relatives.
Many of these people died in concentration camps. Most were Jews.
Soros profited by turning on his own people for his profit & safety.
He knew the brutality of Hitler’s regime. He professes Godlessness
& enjoys creating conflict & division within nations.

His son has been photographed within our White house with the members of the Communist Democrat party of (Biden/Obama/Rice/Schumer/Schiff/Clinton & others. Soros’ son is like his father, Soros disregards humanity. Soros was interviewed in the past stating he has no remorse or regret for his treason against his own people.

It’s all about him & money. God is a joke to him.

This FILTH WAS AND IS A ” N A Z I ” !!! Never ever forget that…Think I’m overacting, go to Google and bring up his interviews in the past and recently, especially about his youth. Draw your own conclusions.

HE’S LOST HIS MIND A LONG, LONG TIME AGO.
[Hence His MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL.]
AND THE NATZI MONEY HE HAS IS PAYING FOR ALL HIS “MAHAM”
THE MEDIA LOVE’S CRUSHING THE TRUTH & SPREADING LIES.

Can you imagine what it took millions of people and rivers of blood to create and defend this great country and these fuckers from the left and Biden is destroying in no time in front of our eyes and nothing can be done . Using a single inappropriate word can brand a person as an anti-Semite for life. Yet even though Soros helped the Nazis steal Jews’ property, often resulting in their internment in death camps, Soros supporters defend his actions. “George Soros Tells How He Helped Nazis Capture Jews” on YouTube says a lot about this amoral man. George György Soros (Schwartz) = Conflicted Human Being.

The Left’s disinformation industrial complex (msn.com)
Magneto both in the comics and in the movies came to his beliefs because he was a Holocaust survivor-he was rescued from the camps by Captain America-and he saw similarities between how the humans treated mutants and Nazis treated the Jews.
Soros, who admitted on 60 Minutes he WAS a Nazi, just wishes to control everything
& everyone. THIS SCUMBAG ADMITS TO Joining the NAZI PARTY and stealing the belongings of Jews sent to the death camps. To “survive the holocaust.” He remains a NAZI today.

Brandon Johnson thinks it is ‘wicked’ to help illegal immigrants reach his sanctuary city.
Soros has trashed the economies of many countries and is currently working on destroying the US economy and it’s proceeding as planned. Why hasn’t this monster been deported — his assets seized and frozen? Mayhem is what he creates, then swoops in with economic destruction. The mainstream media isn’t even trying to make their narratives believable anymore! Anybody that does a one minute search can easily find out that Soros was a willing Nazi collaborator…

Who is Bill Gates – Search (bing.com)
Soros was mentored by Nazis and continues to behave and think like a
Nazis as well as train his own son to be a Nazi. No different than Bill Gates, etc..
How many times has Soros, or his son been to the White House in the last 2 years?

Think about it.
The mindset of Nazis DIDN’T just go away. It went underground and continued
to grow along with communism with the support of power-hungry Oligarchs.
And now we have the World Economic Forum. A training program for Nazis,
Communist and Wanna-Be Oligarchs.
A triangle of evil with the Oligarch’s leader (Klaus Schwab) at the top of the
pyramid and the Communist and Fascist acting as arms of that evil each having

George Soros is as Jewish as the Pope.
A “Holocaust Survivor”; what holocaust did he survive? His family discarded their Judaism to save their hides. They pretended to be Christians. I’m sorry, it’s morally bankrupt to hide behind Judaism only when it’s convenient for him, otherwise he’s a Christian collaborating with Nazis to save his hide.

This guy is a truly evil person.

He admitted on camera that helping the Nazis round up his fellow Jews was one of
the happiest times of his life… he survived…. working for the Nazi’s! Soros is an atheist.
His father was wealthy attorney and a fan of Karl Marx.

Elon Musk Warns the World About His Powerful New Enemy

Call it a three-act strategy.
In the first act, he makes a cryptic comment about a target.
He then waits for the reactions.
The second act is the attack. In this phase, he repeatedly hits the target, aiming to
stagger it and force it to throw in the towel. If he gets criticized, he hits more and harder.
In the third act he walks away because he figures the damage is done.

The adversary has been weakened.
Soros has seemingly decided to mix both Kalergieism and Nazism into one awful life goal. Forcibly creating one homogeneous, cultureless, history less, also the coffee colored race
of humans, like Kalergie. And also wants a borderless Europe with one currency, language and state army. And he seems not to care that nobody else wants this. He applies the same strategy he has previously used with varying results.

What matters in all of this is to show that the enemy, whoever and whatever it is, is vulnerable and that he is not afraid of anything and anyone. The objective of this strategy is to prove that he has acquired influence and power that make him untouchable.

Musk Has a Long List of Powerful Enemies
The “he” here is Elon Musk, serial entrepreneur, CEO of electric-vehicle leader Tesla, owner of Twitter, founder of space-tech company SpaceX and infrastructure operation Boring Co., and co-founder of the neuroscience company Neuralink.

In one year, the list of victims of his three-act strategy has lengthened considerably.
It includes his peer billionaire and the Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates; Anthony Fauci,
the immunologist who led the U.S. response to the covid-19 pandemic; and the World Economic Forum, to name a few.

These targets have in common their status as icons.
There is a kind of global deference toward them.

Since May, Musk has been going after another prominent person,
one of the most famous financiers and philanthropists. George Soros.
For almost a year Musk avoided attacking Soros because the financier had invested in Tesla through his hedge fund, Soros Fund Management. From second-quarter 2022 until the start of this year, the major donor to the Democratic Party remained a shareholder in the carmaker. Related video: Elon Musk’s “experiment” in free speech on Twitter has been a disaster for his bottom line (MSNBC).

But on May 12 Soros Fund Management published, as the Securities and Exchange Commission requires, an update of its portfolio as of March 31. This showed that Soros had liquidated his entire stake in Tesla (TSLA) – Get Free Report in the first quarter. Musk, apparently now feeling free to attack Soros, two days later deployed his three-act strategy.

He started by comparing the financier to Magneto, a Jewish supervillain in the Marvel Comics universe, who “wants to erode the very fabric of civilization” and “hates humanity.” Soros, 92, is Jewish and a Holocaust survivor.

(10) Elon Musk on Twitter: “@krassenstein You assume they have good intentions.
They are not. He wants to erode the very fabric of civilization. Soros hates humanity.” / Twitter

The next day, Musk accused Soros of buying off district attorneys by choosing them and funding their election campaigns so that they became his “pets” and obeyed his orders. “Soros astutely identified a massive arbitrage opportunity in district attorney elections, where a relatively small amount of money has outsized influence,” the billionaire said on May 17. “Soros’s instructions to his pet prosecutors were (essentially) to minimize prosecuting even violent criminals.”

“That’s why a criminal – someone who had already stabbed his roommate – could brutally assault Dave Chapelle on stage with that same deadly weapon and yet receive merely a misdemeanor!” Musk charged, without providing evidence.

Among other things, Soros astutely identified a massive arbitrage opportunity in district attorney elections, where a relatively small amount of money has outsized influence. Soros’s instructions to his pet prosecutors were (essentially) to minimize prosecuting…” / Twitter

Musk Remarks ‘Distressing, Dangerous’:
ADL…The attacks drew criticism from civil-rights groups.
To see Elon Musk comparing Soros to “a Jewish supervillain, claiming Soros ‘hates humanity’ — is not just distressing, it’s dangerous,” said Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League, a civil-rights group that tracks and reports antisemitic actions. “It will embolden extremists who already contrive anti-Jewish conspiracies and have tried to attack Soros and Jewish communities as a result.”

These criticisms would have put off an average person. But Musk, faithful to his strategy, found in them motivation to double-down on his attack on Soros. “I’d like to apologize for this post,” the billionaire posted on May 17, suggesting that Soros is even worse than the supervillain. “It was really unfair to Magneto.”

(11) Elon Musk on Twitter: “It was really unfair to Magneto” / Twitter

And if these critics still had not understood that they would not get in his way, the billionaire then amped up the accusations made by conspiracy theorists against Soros. “Does the public realize that Soros wants open borders? Literally not even checking to
see if they’re convicted serial killers on the run, which has happened more than once,”
Musk argued on May 18, without providing evidence.

Corporate Media Runs With George Soros ‘Holocaust Survivor’ Lie – PJ Media

Story of 11 yr old Gerorge as a General in the Nazi party – Bing video
SOROS is a MOTHER FU..R and WAS A NAZI COLLABORATOR AND NOW
TURNED COMMUNIST AND IS RUINING THE JUSTICE IN THE USA.

Soros is a sick simian semitic socialist. – Search (bing.com)
Listening to his interview he was an acting agent of the nazi party.
Surprisingly they did not try him for war crimes. I am sure he kept some
property and that’s how he got his wealth. He is the lowest form of life.

He is a front for George Soros Wallenberg’s banking family (Sweden). Look into it.
It’s not for me to say if he’s just a communist poc or that trading Holocaust experience really did something to him… I’d venture to guess his rationalization goes something
like this: ‘Superiority breeds atrocity, thus; Tear down all things Superior.’
He’s the penultimate victim of Socialism – whether it be of the National or the Global
kind – but of course, it’s a trying task to feel sorry for someone dealing the damage
(and ultimately, suffering) this guy does.

George Soros – Google Search

Enough of the racial boxes. Evil is evil.
Who cares what race or religion someone is born into- and btw Soros is an atheist.
Who cares what people are – black, white, brown — all that matters is wh0 they are.
People with character and decency know this.

Elon Musk claims George Soros ‘hates humanity.’
What is going on–Soros was responsible for aiding the Nazi’s during
World War II in destroying the lives of his neighbors & some relatives.
Many of these people died in concentration camps. Most were Jews.
Soros profited by turning on his own people for his profit & safety.
He knew the brutality of Hitler’s regime. He professes Godlessness
& enjoys creating conflict & division within nations.

His son has been photographed within our White house with the members of the Communist Democrat party of (Biden/Obama/Rice/Schumer/Schiff/Clinton & others. Soros’ son is like his father, Soros disregards humanity. Soros was interviewed in the past stating he has no remorse or regret for his treason against his own people.

It’s all about him & money. God is a joke to him.

This FILTH WAS AND IS A ” N A Z I ” !!! Never ever forget that…Think I’m overacting, go to Google and bring up his interviews in the past and recently, especially about his youth. Draw your own conclusions.

HE’S LOST HIS MIND A LONG, LONG TIME AGO.
[Hence His MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL.]
AND THE NATZI MONEY HE HAS IS PAYING FOR ALL HIS “MAHAM”
THE MEDIA LOVE’S CRUSHING THE TRUTH & SPREADING LIES.

Can you imagine what it took millions of people and rivers of blood to create and defend this great country and these fuckers from the left and Biden is destroying in no time in front of our eyes and nothing can be done . Using a single inappropriate word can brand a person as an anti-Semite for life. Yet even though Soros helped the Nazis steal Jews’ property, often resulting in their internment in death camps, Soros supporters defend his actions. “George Soros Tells How He Helped Nazis Capture Jews” on YouTube says a lot about this amoral man. George György Soros (Schwartz) = Conflicted Human Being.

Nazi Collaborator George Soros Never Considered Humanity,

The Left’s disinformation industrial complex (msn.com)
Magneto both in the comics and in the movies came to his beliefs because he was a Holocaust survivor-he was rescued from the camps by Captain America-and he saw similarities between how the humans treated mutants and Nazis treated the Jews.
Soros, who admitted on 60 Minutes he WAS a Nazi, just wishes to control everything
& everyone. THIS SCUMBAG ADMITS TO Joining the NAZI PARTY and stealing the belongings of Jews sent to the death camps. To “survive the holocaust.” He remains a NAZI today.

Brandon Johnson thinks it is ‘wicked’ to help illegal immigrants reach his sanctuary city.
Soros has trashed the economies of many countries and is currently working on destroying the US economy and it’s proceeding as planned. Why hasn’t this monster been deported — his assets seized and frozen? Mayhem is what he creates, then swoops in with economic destruction. The mainstream media isn’t even trying to make their narratives believable anymore! Anybody that does a one minute search can easily find out that Soros was a willing Nazi collaborator…

Think about it.

And now we have the World Economic Forum. A training program for Nazis,

America’s Loneliness Epidemic

Posted on May 17, 2023 by Ken

Loneliness has hit ‘crisis’ levels in the US. How do we get out of it?
Paloma Chavez Charlotte Observer

There is a growing epidemic the country needs to worry about, and it’s only going to get worse if we don’t take action, the U.S. surgeon general says. Loneliness and isolation and feeling forgotten and left behind are the worst feelings in LIFE and are on the rise in the U.S., and it’s quickly turning into a crisis — with roughly half of adults saying they’ve recently experienced loneliness, according to Surgeon General Dr. Vivek H. Murthy’s 2023 advisory.

“When I first took office as Surgeon General in 2014, I didn’t view loneliness as a public health concern,” he said in his advisory. Loneliness and isolation are on the rise in the U.S., and it’s quickly turning into a crisis, according to Surgeon General Dr. Vivek H. Murthy’s 2023 advisory. It wasn’t until he traveled across the country to hear Americans share their stories of feeling “isolated, invisible, and insignificant” that he realized “social disconnection was far more common than” he “had realized.”

The loneliness ‘crisis’
Though the COVID-19 pandemic brought out feelings of isolation and loneliness in many, they were already on the rise. The two make up this national issue of disconnectedness, and though they are related, they do not mean quite the same thing. Social isolation is defined by having few relationships and lack of social interaction, whereas loneliness is an “internal state.”

A 2022 study cited by the advisory showed only 39% of Americans felt like they were connected to others emotionally. The study showed that with this increase in lack of social connection to others, there was also an increase in loneliness.

The two factors are shown to be more “widespread than many of the other
major health issues of our day, including smoking, diabetes, and obesity,” the advisory says. An increase in technology use, lack of community involvement and decline in personal participation in social interaction can partially be behind the rise in loneliness throughout the country.

Why social connection matters
It’s simple. People who feel connected to others seem to live longer.
Recent data spanning 148 studies has shown that individuals with a higher
level of social connection has increased their “odds of survival by 50%.”
Social connection influences health through three main pathways:
biology, psychology and behavior.

The biology as in hormones, genes and inflammation; psychological as in having purpose and hopefulness; and behaviors like exercise, sleep and nutrition. So how can adequate social interaction help a person with these three health factors?

Social connection affects the biological pathway by showing up early in life and “contributing to risk and protection from disease” along the way. The psychological pathway is affected by social relationships and by giving a person motivation in their life.

Behavior can be affected directly through social influence by loved ones’ words of encouragement or following by example, like being more physically active if your friends work out. Lack of social connection, on the other hand, is a risk factor for deaths caused by disease, the advisory says.

Cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hypertension, depression, infectious disease, anxiety and reduced cognitive function are all possible results. A weakened immune system caused by less social interaction may increase a person’s chance of developing an infectious disease. A study done during the COVID-19 pandemic showed “a lack of social connection with neighbors and resultant loneliness was associated with weaker antibody responses to the vaccine.”

Ways to improve social connection
The advisory suggests designing a communal environment that helps build social connection through programs and institutes that bring people together. From a government perspective, policies should be put in place to “minimize harm from disconnection,” Murthy says. Additionally, he says health care providers should be thoroughly trained on the topic and increase tracking of disconnection in communities.

The surgeon general:
Also advises that because digital environments may be a cause of loneliness and lack of social connection, companies need to provide more data transparency so officials can more broadly understand how technology affects disconnection. He also says those companies need to increase safety standards to protect users.

For the nation to combat this epidemic, there needs to be a sense of public awareness and more research funding on the topic, Murthy says. He suggests gathering researchers, health professionals and policymakers to make a national agenda to address the issue.

Overall, he says the most important way to cultivate is something people can do in their everyday lives. He says individuals need a new sense of social connection and to build
“a culture of connection” through acts of service, being kind, respecting one another,
and having these conversations in schools and workplaces.

The surgeon general urges the public to act now because “our future depends on
what we do today.” “Answer that phone call from a friend. Make time to share a meal.
Listen without the distraction of your phone,” he said. “Perform an act of service.

Express yourself authentically.
The keys to human connection are simple, but extraordinarily powerful.”

Loneliness leads to higher instances of disease, dementia, stroke, depression and anxiety. But what will cure loneliness requires just a bit more effort from each of us.

President Biden is finally dismantling the last remaining COVID-related restrictions.
But don’t worry: U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy has announced a new epidemic.
This one didn’t escape from a wet market and certainly wasn’t created in a lab.
Dr. Murthy has declared “an epidemic of loneliness.” “Millions of people in America are struggling in the shadows, and that’s not right,” Murthy said. “That’s why I issued this advisory to pull back the curtain on a struggle that too many people are experiencing.”

Loneliness has real impacts on our health.
The surgeon general released an 81-page report this week showing that half of U.S. adults say they’ve experienced loneliness. That number seems low — who hasn’t felt lonely? — but just 39% answered that they “felt very connected to others.”

From the U.S. surgeon general:
Our kids’ mental health is as critical as their grades.
Here’s how to prioritize both.

All the lonely people: Why Americans’ isolation is a threat to our democracy
Murthy took action when research tied serious mental and physical health risks to social disconnection. According to the report, loneliness leads to higher instances of disease, dementia, stroke, depression and anxiety. The damage to life expectancy is as deadly as smoking up to 15 cigarettes daily. All of this adds to higher health costs, loss of worker productivity and declining community cohesion.
It’s not just COVID. Americans have been isolating ourselves for years
Every governmental policy bears unintended consequences. Unsurprisingly, the strict COVID-19 lockdowns forced upon much of the country helped stoke this new epidemic. But those restrictions hardly deserve all the blame. Over the past two decades, individual social participation with friends and family has fallen, along with larger-scale community involvement.
Fewer people are married and couples have fewer children. Outside of relatives, Americans are far less likely to join community organizations or show up for religious services. Just 20% attend faith communities on a weekly basis.

Americans see each other as enemies:
Americans increasingly don’t value God,
country or children. Can anything still unite us?

‘Not left or right, but deep’ :How people of faith can help to heal America’s divisions
Then, of course, there’s technology. When you can work from home and attend school online, there are fewer reasons than ever to change out of your pajamas.
Technology, social media made the problem worse
Bored teens in the 1980s would head to the mall and run into a dozen friends eager to catch a movie or annoy retail staff. Today, the friends all reside in a teen’s smartphone, with many located across the country or on the other side of the world. Adults are much the same. With a few clicks, everything from meals to clothes to books are dropped on our doorsteps.

Dr. Phil: Want your teen to feel happier and less anxious?
Get them off their phone and social media.

Stop AAPI hate: New survey shows increase in anti-Asian hate, discrimination.
Here’s how we can stop it. Worse still, one can tailor their online communities to weed out anyone with different politics, interests or opinions. With a large chunk of Americans never exposed to a contrary viewpoint, it’s no wonder we’re at each other’s throats.
We all know social isolation is a problem and are pretty sure what’s causing it.
It’s time to fix it for our own health as well as our communities.

Feeling lonely? Here are some things you can do.
Murthy offers a few ideas but few show much hope. We can tweak family leave and
pass a tech reform or two, but top-down public policy solutions won’t improve much.
What will cure loneliness just requires a bit more effort from each of us.

* Join a social club or community organization. And actually show up; no Zoom allowed.
* Visit your church, synagogue, or mosque and sign up as a volunteer for anything that strikes your fancy.

Seriously, if I can do this stuff anyone can.
I’m a serious introvert by nature and love my alone time. Yet I made a commitment two years ago to meet with a friend for lunch or coffee every week or two to strengthen those critical ties. I applaud Murthy for calling attention to this epidemic, but even he must know loneliness can’t be fixed by a federal agency. Ultimately, it’s up to us. So, call a friend and invite them to lunch. Yes, you’ll have to change out of your pajamas, but won’t kill you.

Now, they’re the highlight of my week.
It might just save your life.

BONUS: The Durham Report.
WASHINGTON (AP) — An investigation into the origins of the FBI’s probe of ties between Russia and Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign has finally been concluded, with prosecutor John Durham submitting a much-anticipated report
that spelled out what it identified as major flaws.

Who is John Durham?
Durham had spent decades as a Justice Department prosecutor, with past assignments including investigations into the FBI’s cozy relationship with mobsters in Boston and the CIA’s destruction of videotapes of its harsh interrogations of terrorism subjects, when he was called upon in 2019 by then–Atty. Gen. William Barr to look into the origins of the Trump-Russia probe, which had become a cause célèbre for the Trump team, with his
re-election bid in 2020 then rapidly approaching for Trump-sympathetic media outlets.

Durham was tapped to investigate potential misconduct by U.S. government officials as they examined Russian election interference in 2016 and whether there was any illegal coordination between the Kremlin and Trump’s presidential campaign.
Despite skimpy results — one guilty plea and two acquittals — that failed to live up to Trump’s expectations, Durham was able to continue his work deep into the Biden administration, thanks in part to Barr’s appointing Durham as a Justice Department special counsel shortly before Barr’s 2020 resignation as attorney general and to Atty. Gen. Merrick Garland’s stated goal of behaving politically atop the Justice Department.

Why did the Barr Justice Department feel Durham’s appointment was necessary?
The appointment came weeks after a different special counsel, Robert Mueller, wrapped up his investigation of possible connections between Russia and the Trump campaign. That probe produced more than two dozen criminal cases, including against a half-dozen Trump associates.
Though it did not charge any Trump aide with working with Russia to tip the election, it did find that Russia interfered on Trump’s behalf and that the campaign welcomed, rather than discouraged, the help.
From the start, Barr was deeply skeptical of the intelligence-community investigation’s foundation, telling Congress that “spying did occur” on the campaign.

From the archives (May 2019):
Barr tells senators that spying has no ‘pejorative connotation’
He enlisted an outside prosecutor to hunt for potential misconduct at the government agencies who were involved in collecting intelligence and conducting the investigation, even taking the unusual step — given that a key reason for tapping a special prosecutor is to insulate that official from real or perceived influence by a political appointee — of flying with Durham to Italy to meet with officials there as part of the probe.

Durham Report Proves GOP Electorate’s Worst Fever Dreams Are Totally True.
This article will dive into how much each President has contributed to National Debt,
the types of decisions they make that impact debt levels the most and the events that
have shaped America’s economic reality throughout history.

in Hunter Biden investigation taken off case: report (msn.com).

Hunter Biden IRS Whistleblower: What Happened? (msn.com)
National debt during Joe Biden’s presidency has increased by $2.5 trillion since he
took office, an increase of 8.79% as of September 2022. During Donald Trump’s whole presidency, the U.S. national debt increased by $8.18 trillion, a percentage increase of 40.43%. This is less than Barack Obama (69.98%) and George W. Bush (105.8%).
But Donald Trump was in office for only 4 years compared to 8 years for both Barack Obama and George W. Bush. However To tackle the COVID-19 pandemic, national debt was increased by a further 18.01% totaling $4.25 trillion
in additional debt from March 2020 to Jan 2021 & Democrat Spendfest Stimulus Package.

Abraham Lincoln’s years in the Oval Office saw the largest percentage
increase in National Debt under any President, increasing 2859% overall
However, Martin Van Buren is the President who spent the most consistently
with average yearly debt increasing 375.32% compared to Lincoln’s 148.36% .
Woodrow Wilson, who was President during World War 1, oversaw an increase
of 722.21% (averaging 35% increase per year in office),

Franklin D. Roosevelt, in office between 1933 – 1945,
increased National Debt by 1047.73% (24% increase per year on average)
Of the 45 Presidents, only 14 of them have overseen a decrease in debt.
Calvin Coolidge was the last President to do so, leaving office in 1929,
15 Presidencies ago. Andrew Jackson is the President who decreased
the National Debt the most, nearly eradicating it completely between
1829 – 1837 by reducing the total by -99.42% .

Why can’t our government? Just print money to get us out of debt?
How long do you think it will take the US to work off its current $40 trillion in debt?
Current Debt 31.8 Trillion USD World Debt Clocks (usdebtclock.org)
When Joe Biden was sworn in as President of the United States on 20 January 2021,
the U.S. national debt stood at $27.76 trillion. One year later, the total public debt outstanding of the U.S. government has ballooned by nearly $2.11 trillion (or 7.6%) to $29.87 trillion.
Perhaps a better question to ask is to whom does
the U.S. government borrow n’ owe all the money it has borrowed?
The following chart illustrates who the U.S. government’s biggest creditors
are as of the end of President Biden’s first year in office along with the portion
of the national debt they are owed.

Who’s to Blame for Bumping Up America’s Debt?

– President Biden and Congress continue to attempt to reach an agreement on the
$31.4 trillion cap on government spending before the looming deadline in early June.
In fact, a new meeting is going to occur today. While it does no good to point fingers
at who’s to blame for the massive debt, the limit of which was hit back in January,
both sides are very good at it.

The Debt Stalemate

The latest meeting between House Speaker Kevin McCarthy last Tuesday
evening failed to make any progress on conciliation around government spending.
Waiting things out is nothing new for McCarthy. It took 15 rounds of voting and four
days of debate and negotiations for him to finally take his seat as Speaker.
While McCarthy made concessions to ascend to the highest position in the House,
when it comes to America’s budget, the Speaker is not budging. Nor should he.
The irresponsible spending by both parties has continued for too long. Sure, it’s quite simple to continue to raise the debt ceiling – again. So simple, it’s been done 78 times since 1960 – 49 times under Republican presidents and 29 times under Democratic presidents.
But doing so should come with restrictions. Ones that ensure rigorous cost-benefit analysis is undergone before new programs are enacted. Congress must curb the pork barrel in D.C., costing Americans millions of dollars in inflationary costs.

Who’s Paying the Price?
Contrary to popular belief, the majority of American debt is not held by foreign entities such as China. The US adversary actually holds about $1 trillion of our debt, and while that may seem like a big number, it’s relatively small compared to the entire amount, less than 5%.

Americans hold our own debt and we are the ones paying the price.
The Consumer Price Index increased almost 5% over the past 12 months. Keep in mind that the CPI doesn’t account for increases in common household goods such as food, gas, and clothing – just a few of the items that have skyrocketed over the past two years, thanks to an increase of about 50% in federal spending between fiscal years 2019 and 2021, largely due to the pandemic.
While the increase in expenditures was understandable due to shutting down the economy during the pandemic, like most government payments, there was no significant debate about the future cost of doing so.
A typical household can now expect to pay up to between $350-$500 per person per month for groceries, depending on the state. Of course, if you’re living in cities such as
Los Angeles or New York, that amount will get you some bad coffee, donuts, and Ramen noodles.

If you’re attempting to eat healthy and invest in preventative care to reduce massive health care costs down the road, that number is going to jump closer to $600-$700 per month, possibly more if you include alternative treatments such as acupuncture, chiropractic,
or physical training or therapy.
Just like in any household, balancing a federal budget happens in two ways; increasing money in or decreasing money out. When it comes to the government, the main source
of revenue is taxes. The government’s highest bills come from Social Security, healthcare, defense, and interest on the debt. And who’s going to touch Social Security?
Just look at what happened in France.

Who’s to Blame?
Democrats blame Republicans for using the debt ceiling
as leverage to force spending cuts. But why shouldn’t they?
Imagine you’re a parent and your sixteen-year-old gets in a car accident. You get the car fixed because he promises to be more careful next time. He gets in another accident. You get the car fixed again, no questions asked. No grounding. No requiring him to pay for his own insurance. No restrictions on when he can drive. He gets in another accident and this time, he totals the car. You get him another car. You get the point. It’s ridiculous to expect more responsible behavior from a child without consequences for irresponsible behavior.

Is the government really any more disciplined or accountable than a teenager?
Republicans blame Democrats for continuing to pass and enact excessive and expensive programs under the threat of climate change and necessity for “diversity and inclusion.”
They have a point. The Democrat’s Green New Deal cost over $2 trillion.

Still, the biggest expenses continue to be income support and health care.
Republicans haven’t been any better with tightening their belts. They’ve raised the debt ceiling almost twice as many times as Democrats and President Trump raised it three times during his tenure in the oval office.
This battle over the budget is nothing new. The past two months look eerily similar to 2011 when Obama wrestled with then House Speaker John Boehner from Ohio over the debt ceiling increase and reductions in spending. The battle came complete with divisive factions within the Republican party and Boehner telling Republicans unhappy with his proposed plan to “get your ass in line.”

According to a Rasmussen Report poll, 56 percent of the respondents would rather
have a partial government shutdown until Congress can cut spending or keep it the same.
Only 34 percent said they would rather see the opposite, higher spending levels, to avoid a government shutdown.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. It’s time to stop the insanity once and for all. If a threat of default
is the only way to do it, so be it. It seems the people agree.

— Biden’s, remarks on the national debt ceiling in Valhalla, N.Y., May 10
As he heads to a showdown with House Republicans over raising the debt limit, the president has sought to add context to the discussion over the nation’s $31 trillion in debt. He has noted that debt has accumulated over the past 200 years. And while Republicans peg Biden as being a big spender, he has pointed the finger at his predecessor, Donald Trump.

NOTED: Trump tamed spending until the Democrats went hog wild on covid stimulus spending? Trump, Biden said, increased the national debt by 40 percent in his four-year term.
He added that, besides the pandemic, the biggest contributor to the national debt “over the last decade” was the tax cut passed in 2017 and signed into law by Trump. The implication is that if Republicans are looking for someone to blame for the size of the national debt, it should be Trump.

Biden has a point about the increase in debt under Trump.
Using the Treasury Department’s “debt to the penny” website, we can see that the nation’s total public debt, including intragovernmental holdings, was just under $20 trillion when Trump took office in 2017. Four years later, when Trump left, the figure was about $27.8 trillion. That’s an increase of nearly 39 percent.
(The debt has increased an additional 13 percent since Biden became president.)
But numbers can be deceiving. The Treasury website also shows that $4.3 trillion in debt — more than half of the $7.9 trillion increase — came in the last 10 months of Trump’s term, as the coronavirus pandemic emerged, and massive government spending was needed to mitigate the economic fallout. Both parties strongly supported such measures; Biden has criticized Trump’s handling of the pandemic but he has not questioned the level of government spending needed to combat it.
It’s in Biden’s political interest to focus on Trump. But his attack is a bit misplaced.
Policy choices made long ago are more responsible for the fiscal state of the nation.
Assigning a particular president responsibility for a debt increase is rarely productive, because so much depends on factors beyond a president’s control — an economic crisis such as the Great Recession or the pandemic, for example.
(The White House declined to comment for the record.)

The Impact of social programs
The main reason the United States has federal deficits, which year after year add to the national debt, is because of “fiscal imbalance.” Simply put, that means the government is not collecting enough money through taxes and fees to pay for public programs and services it has enacted or promised. If actions are not taken to close that gap, the problem gets worse over time.
Which president has contributed the most to the nation’s long-term fiscal imbalance?
That would be Lyndon B. Johnson, according to a 2021 study by Charles Blahous, a former economic adviser to George W. Bush and a public trustee for Social Security and Medicare from 2010 through 2015. Through an exhaustive study of Congressional Budget Office and Office of Management and Budget reports, Blahous estimated LBJ’s share of the fiscal imbalance is 29.7 percent.

Close behind is Richard M. Nixon, with 29.2 percent.
Johnson enacted Medicare and Medicaid in the mid-1960s, and then Nixon in the early 1970s expanded both programs and also enhanced Social Security so that benefits were indexed to inflation. Social Security and Medicare are now so popular that both Biden and Republicans have pledged not to touch them as they haggle over other types of government spending.
But in effect, according to this analysis, almost two-thirds of the nation’s long-term fiscal imbalance is a result of policy choices made more than 50 years ago. Spending on Social Security and Medicare happens automatically, not subject to annual appropriations made by Congress. So lawmakers would have to pass new laws to restrain spending in those programs, which are called “entitlements” because benefits are guaranteed for all who qualify. The cost of some of these decisions in the 1960s only became apparent much later.

Former LBJ White House aide Joseph A. Califano Jr. in 1993 disclosed that a seemingly minor provision to provide nursing-home coverage that was added to ensure passage of Medicaid, the health-care program for the poor, unexpectedly led to a gusher of cash from the federal government that helped build what is now a $150-billion nursing-home industry; one-third of Medicaid personal-health spending goes to nursing homes.
To pry Medicare out of a Senate committee, Johnson also agreed to pay hospitals a certain percentage above hospital-determined costs and accept doctor fees that were considered “reasonable,” “customary” and “prevailing”— a compromise that at the time he was told would cost just $500 million. Since then, lawmakers have struggled with the spiraling consequences of giving “hospitals and doctors the keys to the federal Treasury,” as Califano put it.

You can’t evaluate the effectiveness of policies just by looking at costs. Social Security and Medicare helped mitigate poverty among the elderly. Indexing Social Security benefits to inflation gave the program a feature that virtually no annuity can match — and also has ensured the elderly do not suffer economically during periods of high inflation.
Social programs, in fact, can provide more benefits than costs in the long run, but it’s not easy to document because the returns may take decades to materialize. A 2020 analysis by Nathaniel Hendren and Ben Sprung-Keyser of Harvard University of 133 policy changes found that spending on low-income children’s health and education in particular paid for themselves. That’s because children who benefited from those programs earned more money as adults, thus paying higher taxes and requiring fewer welfare payments.

NOTE: Children’s health programs, for instance, were estimated to earn the government
$1.78 for every dollar spent. Spending on adults did not have the same kind of long-term impact, the analysis found.

The Impact of tax cuts
Biden, in his remarks, said: “Over the last decade, the single largest contribution to the debt, aside from the pandemic, were the Trump tax cuts — skewed to the wealthy and large corporations — for $2 trillion.”

This is misleading for two reasons.
First, Trump’s tax cut, enacted in 2017, has not yet reduced revenue by $2 trillion; Biden is using an estimate for the period between 2018 and 2028. In reality, the CBO estimated the tax cut would reduce revenue by nearly $1.5 trillion through 2023, after accounting for positive macroeconomic feedback (which reduces the deficit) and additional debt service costs (which increases it).
Second, note that Biden referred to legislation passed “in the last decade.” That means he’s starting with 2013 — which conveniently leaves out a Barack Obama tax cut — the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012. (It’s a close call as to whether it belongs in 2012 or 2013. Despite the name, the Senate and House approved the bill on Jan. 1, 2013, and Obama signed it a day later.)

The revenue loss of Obama’s tax cut amounted to 1.8 percent of the gross domestic product, meaning it was double the size of Trump’s 2017 tax cut, according to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget — even though Trump often falsely brags he passed the biggest tax cut in U.S. history.
If you count Obama’s tax cut (plus another one he signed in 2010), it added almost $2.2 trillion to the deficit between 2013 and 2023, compared with $1.35 trillion for the Trump tax cut and $3.7 trillion for pandemic spending, according to an analysis of historical budget data. (These numbers do not include debt service costs.)

Why don’t you hear much about these Obama tax cuts? Democrats don’t tout them, in part because they extended about 80 percent of tax cuts first passed by George W. Bush in 2001 and 2003. Bush included a ticking time bomb — the tax cuts expired after nine years, forcing Obama to either extend them or allow taxes to go up for many Americans. He reached a deal that just raised taxes on people making more than $400,000. So Democrats often argue that those tax cuts, including what Obama extended, should be counted as GOP contributions to the deficit.
Trump included a similar ticking time bomb in his tax cut for whoever is president in 2025, as that’s when his tax cuts will expire. Biden has also engaged in these budget tricks for some of his spending programs, having them expire after a few years to make the fiscal consequences seem lower in the long run.

But Obama’s 2012 tax cut had important long-term fiscal implications.
He lifted the ceiling on the alternative minimum tax and indexed it for inflation.
That saved Congress from having to address the issue year after year, but it also
permanently drained those revenue. (Trump raised the ceiling further.)
Blahous said that Congress fiddles so often with the tax code that the effects of one particular tax cut are difficult to discern over a 50-year period. In doing his research, he said he was struck by the fact that policy choices made by Trump will have a greater long-term fiscal impact than his tax cut.
Trump eliminated several streams of revenue that Obama enacted to help
finance the Affordable Care Act, including a 40-percent tax on high-cost, employer-sponsored “Cadillac” health plans and fines imposed on people who failed to obtain health insurance. Blahous estimated that revoking these taxes will amount to 7.6 percent of the future fiscal imbalance. “One would never know that just following the political debates,” he said.
Looking strictly at legislation that affected the 2021 budget deficit,
Blahous attributes 38.2 percent of the deficit to policy choices made by Trump,
36.9 percent to Biden (primarily covid spending), 9.6 percent to Nixon,
8.6 to Obama, 3 percent to Johnson and 2.9 percent to George W. Bush.

Democrats prefer to frame the debate by just looking at the impact of policy since 2000. The last budget surplus was achieved in the 2001 fiscal year, which included the final four months of Clinton’s presidency. In 2000, U.S. debt held by the public was about 34 percent of GDP. As 2023 started, the amount of debt was 97 percent — an astonishing leap.
Under this analysis, which assumes Obama’s tax cuts should be counted as extensions of Bush’s tax cuts, roughly two-thirds of rise in the debt-to-GDP ratio can be attributed to three policies: the Bush tax cuts and the extensions (37 percent); the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan launched by Bush and sustained by his successors (18 percent); and the Trump tax cuts (10 percent). Pandemic emergency spending passed in 2020 accounts for 23 percent of the increase.
But this analysis sidesteps the fact that Obama signed into law two major tax cuts that contributed significantly to the nation’s long-term fiscal imbalance. The Obama White House celebrated the bill as reducing the federal deficit, and Obama was not reluctant to sign it. “This agreement will also grow the economy and shrink our deficits in a balanced way — by investing in our middle class, and by asking the wealthy to pay a little more,” Obama said in a statement at the time.

“The Great Recession and the covid crisis led to unusually large deficits due to congressional action (and in the Great Recession, losses of revenue due to a recession) right at the transition between terms,” said Eugene Steuerle, a fellow at the Urban Institute, in an email. The nation has experienced “ever higher deficits, which result partly from never having policies in place to pay off past crisis-level deficits (and growth in debt) and partly from the automatic growth in spending rather than just legislative increases.” Both parties, he said, have a “joint but growing responsibility for kicking the compounding entitlement shortfall down the road.”

Key points
1. The national debt, which has surpassed $30 trillion, shows how much the federal government owes. 2. All but two presidents since 1900 have contributed to the national debt, some more than others. 3. More significant contributions have been a result of government spending to finance wars and economic recovery.
While a country’s national debt and gross domestic product are often correlated,
too much debt compared to a country’s GDP can negatively impact economic growth.
The country’s debt has grown exponentially in the past few decades.
The federal government has countless programs to provide for its citizen’s various needs. But the ever-rising national debt is a constant reminder of the need for more moderated spending.
Many people like to see the national debt by the president to get an idea of how certain policies impact our government’s spending. They might use it as a political scorecard to gauge how well an administration is doing.
By the end of January 2022, the nation’s debt burden surpassed $30 trillion for the first time.Here’s how the U.S. debt by president breaks down.

National debt by president
The U.S. Treasury Department provides a detailed account of how much debt the country has piled up each year since 1900. From 1790 through 1900, the nation’s presidents accumulated $2.1 billion in national debt. Since then, presidents have seen both deficits and surpluses, but the deficits have grossly outpaced the surpluses, and the federal government hasn’t made more money than it spent in a year since 2001.
Keep in mind that presidents generally don’t have any control over the budget during their first year in office because it’s already set in stone by the previous president. We adjusted the figures to account for this fact.
Here’s how each president has contributed to that debt since the turn of the 20th century:
And the president most to blame for the national debt problem is …

The Debt Really Got Out of Hand in The Obama Green Jobs Revolution Years.

The Overall Picture
The U.S. Federal Reserve is once again Uncle Sam’s single largest creditor, accounting for 19.1% of the entire U.S. government’s national debt. The Fed’s share of the total public debt outstanding has grown from 16.5% a year earlier.
By contrast, the U.S. government’s second largest creditor is Social Security, whose share of the ownership of the national debt dropped from 10.4% of the total to 9.2%. Social Security has been running in the red since 2009, forcing its Old Age and Survivors’ Insurance Trust Fund to sell off U.S. treasuries it accumulated when it was operating in the black in order to keep paying out benefits at promised levels. Social Security’s share of the U.S. national debt is projected to decline to 0% in 2034. After that happens, Social Security benefits will be reduced by somewhere between 20-25% as promised under current law.

The retirement trust funds for the U.S. government’s military and civilian employees together account for 7.1% of the total U.S. national debt. After these large holdings, a diverse range of U.S. institutions, such as banks, insurance companies, independent corporations, investment firms and individuals combine to hold the largest share of money owed by the U.S. government, accounting for 38.6% of the total, down from the 40.4% share they held a year ago.
Foreign entities combine to account for holding 25.9% of the total debt liabilities issued by the U.S. government, up from the share of 25.4% they held on 20 January 2021. Of the portion of the national debt owed to foreign-based institutions, Japan now holds the greatest share at 4.5% of the U.S. national debt based on preliminary estimates, whose share is unchanged from a year earlier. China comes in second holding a share of 4.4%, which is down from 4.6% in 2021.

The international banking centers of Belgium, Ireland, and also Luxembourg saw
their share of the U.S. government’s total public debt outstanding held steady at 3.0%,
while the United Kingdom saw its share increase from 1.5% to 2.1% over the past year.
Brazil and the remaining foreign nations saw their shares of the U.S. national debt dip.

President Biden’s First Year in Office.
As we noted, the national debt increased by $2.11 trillion in President Biden’s first year in office. That amount was inflated by President Biden’s American Rescue Plan Act, which we estimate accounts for $1.34 trillion or 63.5% of the increase by itself. The following waterfall chart breaks down where most the money the U.S. government newly borrowed in President Biden’s first year in office came from:

We find the Federal Reserve loaned Uncle Sam 45% of all the net new borrowing.
Foreign entities loaned the U.S. government the second largest amount at 33% of
the net change, while U.S. individuals and institutions contributed the remaining 22%.
I think the most surprising part of the analysis is how much President Biden’s
“American Rescue Plan” contributed to the nation’s indebtedness.
That burden comes on top of its contributions to today’s inflation.

As you can see, every single president since 1900 other than Calvin Coolidge and Warren G. Harding has increased the national debt. Franklin D. Roosevelt added the most debt in terms of percentage increase, which was brought on by the New Deal.

NOTE: That program helped the country dig itself out of
the Great Depression and World War II. (NO IT DIDN’T.)

Woodrow Wilson added a large %increase to the national debt to finance World War I.
President George W. Bush was the first president to add a multi-trillion-dollar amount to the debt to finance the war on terror, and Presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump followed suit, the former primarily to combat the Great Recession and the latter mostly to deal with the coronavirus pandemic.
It’s unclear yet how much President Joe Biden will add to the national debt, but the Congressional Budget Office projects that the country will add $1.3 trillion in deficit spending each year through 2030, totaling $13 trillion over that time. The Biden Administration’s legislation and executive orders in 2022—namely the Inflation Reduction Act and mass student loan forgiveness—could also impact the national debt in unforeseen ways.

What makes up the national debt?
The national debt is composed of both public debt and intragovernmental debt. Public debt includes Treasury bills, notes and bonds, which are owned by U.S.-based investors, the Federal Reserve and foreign governments.
Intragovernmental debt is made up of Government Account Series securities that are owned by federal agencies, such as military retirement funds, public employee retirement funds and the Social Security Trust Fund.
Each year in which the government spends more than it earns in tax revenues,
it runs a deficit for that year, which adds to the national debt total.

How does the national debt correlate to the GDP?
Government spending is often designed to boost the economy, which means that the national debt and the country’s gross domestic product—the total market value of all goods and services produced within the country’s borders—are correlated.
“The national debt is typically scaled relative to GDP, because this allows investors to determine the total amount of the government’s obligations relative to its ability to repay these obligations,” says Rhea Thomas, an economist at Wilmington Trust.
“In addition, it allows for consistent comparison over time and across countries. Countries with high debt-to-GDP ratios tend to be associated with lower long-term growth.”
For the fourth quarter of 2021, the U.S. had a debt-to-GDP ratio of 123.39%, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. That’s almost double what it was in the fourth quarter of 2007, shortly before the Obama administration increased spending to deal with the Great Recession.

in stark contrast to wealthier U.S. residents

According to a study conducted by the World Bank, a ratio above 77% for a prolonged period could stymie economic growth. In all of this, it’s important to note that the federal government pays its debts with tax revenue, not GDP. Politicians continue to be at odds over how to generate revenues and how to spend those revenues.
“Paying back the debt will require higher taxes or reduced government spending,
both of which are difficult to do politically and result in slower growth,” says Thomas.
“Governments may also choose to print money to pay for debt, but this raises the risk
of runaway inflation and higher interest rates.”

Thomas also adds that as debt levels grow, investors may demand higher interest rates
out of concern over the government’s ability to pay its debts. Higher interest rates would,
in turn, take away from private investments, and it would also require more government spending to make larger interest payments, dampening productivity and long-term growth.
The national debt can be a politically polarizing issue, but it’s important to keep the context in mind for each president. As spending continues to rise without a correlated increase in revenues, the national debt will continue to increase, likely putting more financial strain on future generations.

National debt during Joe Biden’s presidency has increased by $2.5 trillion since he
took office, an increase of 8.79% as of September 2022. During Donald Trump’s whole presidency, the U.S. national debt increased by $8.18 trillion, a percentage increase of 40.43%. This is less than Barack Obama (69.98%) and George W. Bush (105.8%).
But Donald Trump was in office for only 4 years compared to 8 years for both Barack Obama and George W. Bush. However To tackle the COVID-19 pandemic, national debt was increased by a further 18.01% totaling $4.25 trillion
in additional debt from March 2020 to Jan 2021 & Democrat Spendfest Stimulus Package.

Abraham Lincoln’s years in the Oval Office saw the largest percentage
increase in National Debt under any President, increasing 2859% overall
However, Martin Van Buren is the President who spent the most consistently
with average yearly debt increasing 375.32% compared to Lincoln’s 148.36% .
Woodrow Wilson, who was President during World War 1, oversaw an increase
of 722.21% (averaging 35% increase per year in office),

Franklin D. Roosevelt, in office between 1933 – 1945,
increased National Debt by 1047.73% (24% increase per year on average)
Of the 45 Presidents, only 14 of them have overseen a decrease in debt.
Calvin Coolidge was the last President to do so, leaving office in 1929,
15 Presidencies ago. Andrew Jackson is the President who decreased
the National Debt the most, nearly eradicating it completely between
1829 – 1837 by reducing the total by -99.42% .

Who’s to Blame for Bumping Up America’s Debt?

– President Biden and Congress continue to attempt to reach an agreement on the
$31.4 trillion cap on government spending before the looming deadline in early June.
In fact, a new meeting is going to occur today. While it does no good to point fingers
at who’s to blame for the massive debt, the limit of which was hit back in January,
both sides are very good at it.

The Debt Stalemate

The latest meeting between House Speaker Kevin McCarthy last Tuesday
evening failed to make any progress on conciliation around government spending.
Waiting things out is nothing new for McCarthy. It took 15 rounds of voting and four
days of debate and negotiations for him to finally take his seat as Speaker.
While McCarthy made concessions to ascend to the highest position in the House,
when it comes to America’s budget, the Speaker is not budging. Nor should he.
The irresponsible spending by both parties has continued for too long. Sure, it’s quite simple to continue to raise the debt ceiling – again. So simple, it’s been done 78 times since 1960 – 49 times under Republican presidents and 29 times under Democratic presidents.
But doing so should come with restrictions. Ones that ensure rigorous cost-benefit analysis is undergone before new programs are enacted. Congress must curb the pork barrel in D.C., costing Americans millions of dollars in inflationary costs.

Who’s Paying the Price?
Contrary to popular belief, the majority of American debt is not held by foreign entities such as China. The US adversary actually holds about $1 trillion of our debt, and while that may seem like a big number, it’s relatively small compared to the entire amount, less than 5%.

Americans hold our own debt and we are the ones paying the price.
The Consumer Price Index increased almost 5% over the past 12 months. Keep in mind that the CPI doesn’t account for increases in common household goods such as food, gas, and clothing – just a few of the items that have skyrocketed over the past two years, thanks to an increase of about 50% in federal spending between fiscal years 2019 and 2021, largely due to the pandemic.
While the increase in expenditures was understandable due to shutting down the economy during the pandemic, like most government payments, there was no significant debate about the future cost of doing so.
A typical household can now expect to pay up to between $350-$500 per person per month for groceries, depending on the state. Of course, if you’re living in cities such as
Los Angeles or New York, that amount will get you some bad coffee, donuts, and Ramen noodles.

If you’re attempting to eat healthy and invest in preventative care to reduce massive health care costs down the road, that number is going to jump closer to $600-$700 per month, possibly more if you include alternative treatments such as acupuncture, chiropractic,
or physical training or therapy.
Just like in any household, balancing a federal budget happens in two ways; increasing money in or decreasing money out. When it comes to the government, the main source
of revenue is taxes. The government’s highest bills come from Social Security, healthcare, defense, and interest on the debt. And who’s going to touch Social Security?
Just look at what happened in France.

Who’s to Blame?
Democrats blame Republicans for using the debt ceiling
as leverage to force spending cuts. But why shouldn’t they?
Imagine you’re a parent and your sixteen-year-old gets in a car accident. You get the car fixed because he promises to be more careful next time. He gets in another accident. You get the car fixed again, no questions asked. No grounding. No requiring him to pay for his own insurance. No restrictions on when he can drive. He gets in another accident and this time, he totals the car. You get him another car. You get the point. It’s ridiculous to expect more responsible behavior from a child without consequences for irresponsible behavior.

Is the government really any more disciplined or accountable than a teenager?
Republicans blame Democrats for continuing to pass and enact excessive and expensive programs under the threat of climate change and necessity for “diversity and inclusion.”
They have a point. The Democrat’s Green New Deal cost over $2 trillion.

Still, the biggest expenses continue to be income support and health care.
Republicans haven’t been any better with tightening their belts. They’ve raised the debt ceiling almost twice as many times as Democrats and President Trump raised it three times during his tenure in the oval office.
This battle over the budget is nothing new. The past two months look eerily similar to 2011 when Obama wrestled with then House Speaker John Boehner from Ohio over the debt ceiling increase and reductions in spending. The battle came complete with divisive factions within the Republican party and Boehner telling Republicans unhappy with his proposed plan to “get your ass in line.”

According to a Rasmussen Report poll, 56 percent of the respondents would rather
have a partial government shutdown until Congress can cut spending or keep it the same.
Only 34 percent said they would rather see the opposite, higher spending levels, to avoid a government shutdown.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. It’s time to stop the insanity once and for all. If a threat of default
is the only way to do it, so be it. It seems the people agree.

— Biden’s, remarks on the national debt ceiling in Valhalla, N.Y., May 10
As he heads to a showdown with House Republicans over raising the debt limit, the president has sought to add context to the discussion over the nation’s $31 trillion in debt. He has noted that debt has accumulated over the past 200 years. And while Republicans peg Biden as being a big spender, he has pointed the finger at his predecessor, Donald Trump.

NOTED: Trump tamed spending until the Democrats went hog wild on covid stimulus spending? Trump, Biden said, increased the national debt by 40 percent in his four-year term.
He added that, besides the pandemic, the biggest contributor to the national debt “over the last decade” was the tax cut passed in 2017 and signed into law by Trump. The implication is that if Republicans are looking for someone to blame for the size of the national debt, it should be Trump.

Biden has a point about the increase in debt under Trump.
Using the Treasury Department’s “debt to the penny” website, we can see that the nation’s total public debt, including intragovernmental holdings, was just under $20 trillion when Trump took office in 2017. Four years later, when Trump left, the figure was about $27.8 trillion. That’s an increase of nearly 39 percent.
(The debt has increased an additional 13 percent since Biden became president.)
But numbers can be deceiving. The Treasury website also shows that $4.3 trillion in debt — more than half of the $7.9 trillion increase — came in the last 10 months of Trump’s term, as the coronavirus pandemic emerged, and massive government spending was needed to mitigate the economic fallout. Both parties strongly supported such measures; Biden has criticized Trump’s handling of the pandemic but he has not questioned the level of government spending needed to combat it.
It’s in Biden’s political interest to focus on Trump. But his attack is a bit misplaced.
Policy choices made long ago are more responsible for the fiscal state of the nation.
Assigning a particular president responsibility for a debt increase is rarely productive, because so much depends on factors beyond a president’s control — an economic crisis such as the Great Recession or the pandemic, for example.
(The White House declined to comment for the record.)

The Impact of social programs
The main reason the United States has federal deficits, which year after year add to the national debt, is because of “fiscal imbalance.” Simply put, that means the government is not collecting enough money through taxes and fees to pay for public programs and services it has enacted or promised. If actions are not taken to close that gap, the problem gets worse over time.
Which president has contributed the most to the nation’s long-term fiscal imbalance?
That would be Lyndon B. Johnson, according to a 2021 study by Charles Blahous, a former economic adviser to George W. Bush and a public trustee for Social Security and Medicare from 2010 through 2015. Through an exhaustive study of Congressional Budget Office and Office of Management and Budget reports, Blahous estimated LBJ’s share of the fiscal imbalance is 29.7 percent.

Close behind is Richard M. Nixon, with 29.2 percent.
Johnson enacted Medicare and Medicaid in the mid-1960s, and then Nixon in the early 1970s expanded both programs and also enhanced Social Security so that benefits were indexed to inflation. Social Security and Medicare are now so popular that both Biden and Republicans have pledged not to touch them as they haggle over other types of government spending.
But in effect, according to this analysis, almost two-thirds of the nation’s long-term fiscal imbalance is a result of policy choices made more than 50 years ago. Spending on Social Security and Medicare happens automatically, not subject to annual appropriations made by Congress. So lawmakers would have to pass new laws to restrain spending in those programs, which are called “entitlements” because benefits are guaranteed for all who qualify. The cost of some of these decisions in the 1960s only became apparent much later.

Former LBJ White House aide Joseph A. Califano Jr. in 1993 disclosed that a seemingly minor provision to provide nursing-home coverage that was added to ensure passage of Medicaid, the health-care program for the poor, unexpectedly led to a gusher of cash from the federal government that helped build what is now a $150-billion nursing-home industry; one-third of Medicaid personal-health spending goes to nursing homes.
To pry Medicare out of a Senate committee, Johnson also agreed to pay hospitals a certain percentage above hospital-determined costs and accept doctor fees that were considered “reasonable,” “customary” and “prevailing”— a compromise that at the time he was told would cost just $500 million. Since then, lawmakers have struggled with the spiraling consequences of giving “hospitals and doctors the keys to the federal Treasury,” as Califano put it.

You can’t evaluate the effectiveness of policies just by looking at costs. Social Security and Medicare helped mitigate poverty among the elderly. Indexing Social Security benefits to inflation gave the program a feature that virtually no annuity can match — and also has ensured the elderly do not suffer economically during periods of high inflation.
Social programs, in fact, can provide more benefits than costs in the long run, but it’s not easy to document because the returns may take decades to materialize. A 2020 analysis by Nathaniel Hendren and Ben Sprung-Keyser of Harvard University of 133 policy changes found that spending on low-income children’s health and education in particular paid for themselves. That’s because children who benefited from those programs earned more money as adults, thus paying higher taxes and requiring fewer welfare payments.

NOTE: Children’s health programs, for instance, were estimated to earn the government
$1.78 for every dollar spent. Spending on adults did not have the same kind of long-term impact, the analysis found.

The Impact of tax cuts
Biden, in his remarks, said: “Over the last decade, the single largest contribution to the debt, aside from the pandemic, were the Trump tax cuts — skewed to the wealthy and large corporations — for $2 trillion.”

This is misleading for two reasons.
First, Trump’s tax cut, enacted in 2017, has not yet reduced revenue by $2 trillion; Biden is using an estimate for the period between 2018 and 2028. In reality, the CBO estimated the tax cut would reduce revenue by nearly $1.5 trillion through 2023, after accounting for positive macroeconomic feedback (which reduces the deficit) and additional debt service costs (which increases it).
Second, note that Biden referred to legislation passed “in the last decade.” That means he’s starting with 2013 — which conveniently leaves out a Barack Obama tax cut — the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012. (It’s a close call as to whether it belongs in 2012 or 2013. Despite the name, the Senate and House approved the bill on Jan. 1, 2013, and Obama signed it a day later.)

The revenue loss of Obama’s tax cut amounted to 1.8 percent of the gross domestic product, meaning it was double the size of Trump’s 2017 tax cut, according to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget — even though Trump often falsely brags he passed the biggest tax cut in U.S. history.
If you count Obama’s tax cut (plus another one he signed in 2010), it added almost $2.2 trillion to the deficit between 2013 and 2023, compared with $1.35 trillion for the Trump tax cut and $3.7 trillion for pandemic spending, according to an analysis of historical budget data. (These numbers do not include debt service costs.)

Why don’t you hear much about these Obama tax cuts? Democrats don’t tout them, in part because they extended about 80 percent of tax cuts first passed by George W. Bush in 2001 and 2003. Bush included a ticking time bomb — the tax cuts expired after nine years, forcing Obama to either extend them or allow taxes to go up for many Americans. He reached a deal that just raised taxes on people making more than $400,000. So Democrats often argue that those tax cuts, including what Obama extended, should be counted as GOP contributions to the deficit.
Trump included a similar ticking time bomb in his tax cut for whoever is president in 2025, as that’s when his tax cuts will expire. Biden has also engaged in these budget tricks for some of his spending programs, having them expire after a few years to make the fiscal consequences seem lower in the long run.

But Obama’s 2012 tax cut had important long-term fiscal implications.
He lifted the ceiling on the alternative minimum tax and indexed it for inflation.
That saved Congress from having to address the issue year after year, but it also
permanently drained those revenue. (Trump raised the ceiling further.)
Blahous said that Congress fiddles so often with the tax code that the effects of one particular tax cut are difficult to discern over a 50-year period. In doing his research, he said he was struck by the fact that policy choices made by Trump will have a greater long-term fiscal impact than his tax cut.
Trump eliminated several streams of revenue that Obama enacted to help
finance the Affordable Care Act, including a 40-percent tax on high-cost, employer-sponsored “Cadillac” health plans and fines imposed on people who failed to obtain health insurance. Blahous estimated that revoking these taxes will amount to 7.6 percent of the future fiscal imbalance. “One would never know that just following the political debates,” he said.
Looking strictly at legislation that affected the 2021 budget deficit,
Blahous attributes 38.2 percent of the deficit to policy choices made by Trump,
36.9 percent to Biden (primarily covid spending), 9.6 percent to Nixon,
8.6 to Obama, 3 percent to Johnson and 2.9 percent to George W. Bush.

Democrats prefer to frame the debate by just looking at the impact of policy since 2000. The last budget surplus was achieved in the 2001 fiscal year, which included the final four months of Clinton’s presidency. In 2000, U.S. debt held by the public was about 34 percent of GDP. As 2023 started, the amount of debt was 97 percent — an astonishing leap.
Under this analysis, which assumes Obama’s tax cuts should be counted as extensions of Bush’s tax cuts, roughly two-thirds of rise in the debt-to-GDP ratio can be attributed to three policies: the Bush tax cuts and the extensions (37 percent); the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan launched by Bush and sustained by his successors (18 percent); and the Trump tax cuts (10 percent). Pandemic emergency spending passed in 2020 accounts for 23 percent of the increase.
But this analysis sidesteps the fact that Obama signed into law two major tax cuts that contributed significantly to the nation’s long-term fiscal imbalance. The Obama White House celebrated the bill as reducing the federal deficit, and Obama was not reluctant to sign it. “This agreement will also grow the economy and shrink our deficits in a balanced way — by investing in our middle class, and by asking the wealthy to pay a little more,” Obama said in a statement at the time.

“The Great Recession and the covid crisis led to unusually large deficits due to congressional action (and in the Great Recession, losses of revenue due to a recession) right at the transition between terms,” said Eugene Steuerle, a fellow at the Urban Institute, in an email. The nation has experienced “ever higher deficits, which result partly from never having policies in place to pay off past crisis-level deficits (and growth in debt) and partly from the automatic growth in spending rather than just legislative increases.” Both parties, he said, have a “joint but growing responsibility for kicking the compounding entitlement shortfall down the road.”

Key points
1. The national debt, which has surpassed $30 trillion, shows how much the federal government owes. 2. All but two presidents since 1900 have contributed to the national debt, some more than others. 3. More significant contributions have been a result of government spending to finance wars and economic recovery.
While a country’s national debt and gross domestic product are often correlated,
too much debt compared to a country’s GDP can negatively impact economic growth.
The country’s debt has grown exponentially in the past few decades.
The federal government has countless programs to provide for its citizen’s various needs. But the ever-rising national debt is a constant reminder of the need for more moderated spending.
Many people like to see the national debt by the president to get an idea of how certain policies impact our government’s spending. They might use it as a political scorecard to gauge how well an administration is doing.
By the end of January 2022, the nation’s debt burden surpassed $30 trillion for the first time.Here’s how the U.S. debt by president breaks down.

National debt by president
The U.S. Treasury Department provides a detailed account of how much debt the country has piled up each year since 1900. From 1790 through 1900, the nation’s presidents accumulated $2.1 billion in national debt. Since then, presidents have seen both deficits and surpluses, but the deficits have grossly outpaced the surpluses, and the federal government hasn’t made more money than it spent in a year since 2001.
Keep in mind that presidents generally don’t have any control over the budget during their first year in office because it’s already set in stone by the previous president. We adjusted the figures to account for this fact.
Here’s how each president has contributed to that debt since the turn of the 20th century:
And the president most to blame for the national debt problem is …

The Debt Really Got Out of Hand in The Obama Green Jobs Revolution Years.

The Overall Picture
The U.S. Federal Reserve is once again Uncle Sam’s single largest creditor, accounting for 19.1% of the entire U.S. government’s national debt. The Fed’s share of the total public debt outstanding has grown from 16.5% a year earlier.
By contrast, the U.S. government’s second largest creditor is Social Security, whose share of the ownership of the national debt dropped from 10.4% of the total to 9.2%. Social Security has been running in the red since 2009, forcing its Old Age and Survivors’ Insurance Trust Fund to sell off U.S. treasuries it accumulated when it was operating in the black in order to keep paying out benefits at promised levels. Social Security’s share of the U.S. national debt is projected to decline to 0% in 2034. After that happens, Social Security benefits will be reduced by somewhere between 20-25% as promised under current law.

The retirement trust funds for the U.S. government’s military and civilian employees together account for 7.1% of the total U.S. national debt. After these large holdings, a diverse range of U.S. institutions, such as banks, insurance companies, independent corporations, investment firms and individuals combine to hold the largest share of money owed by the U.S. government, accounting for 38.6% of the total, down from the 40.4% share they held a year ago.
Foreign entities combine to account for holding 25.9% of the total debt liabilities issued by the U.S. government, up from the share of 25.4% they held on 20 January 2021. Of the portion of the national debt owed to foreign-based institutions, Japan now holds the greatest share at 4.5% of the U.S. national debt based on preliminary estimates, whose share is unchanged from a year earlier. China comes in second holding a share of 4.4%, which is down from 4.6% in 2021.

The international banking centers of Belgium, Ireland, and also Luxembourg saw
their share of the U.S. government’s total public debt outstanding held steady at 3.0%,
while the United Kingdom saw its share increase from 1.5% to 2.1% over the past year.
Brazil and the remaining foreign nations saw their shares of the U.S. national debt dip.

President Biden’s First Year in Office.
As we noted, the national debt increased by $2.11 trillion in President Biden’s first year in office. That amount was inflated by President Biden’s American Rescue Plan Act, which we estimate accounts for $1.34 trillion or 63.5% of the increase by itself. The following waterfall chart breaks down where most the money the U.S. government newly borrowed in President Biden’s first year in office came from:

We find the Federal Reserve loaned Uncle Sam 45% of all the net new borrowing.
Foreign entities loaned the U.S. government the second largest amount at 33% of
the net change, while U.S. individuals and institutions contributed the remaining 22%.
I think the most surprising part of the analysis is how much President Biden’s
“American Rescue Plan” contributed to the nation’s indebtedness.
That burden comes on top of its contributions to today’s inflation.

Incredible: Dianne Feinstein claimed she hasn’t ‘been gone’ when asked about her lengthy absence from the Senate: ‘No, I’ve been here. I’ve been voting’ (msn.com)
As you can see, every single president since 1900 other than Calvin Coolidge and Warren G. Harding has increased the national debt. Franklin D. Roosevelt added the most debt in terms of percentage increase, which was brought on by the New Deal.

NOTE: That program helped the country dig itself out of
the Great Depression and World War II. (NO IT DIDN’T.)

Woodrow Wilson added a large %increase to the national debt to finance World War I.
President George W. Bush was the first president to add a multi-trillion-dollar amount to the debt to finance the war on terror, and Presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump followed suit, the former primarily to combat the Great Recession and the latter mostly to deal with the coronavirus pandemic.
It’s unclear yet how much President Joe Biden will add to the national debt, but the Congressional Budget Office projects that the country will add $1.3 trillion in deficit spending each year through 2030, totaling $13 trillion over that time. The Biden Administration’s legislation and executive orders in 2022—namely the Inflation Reduction Act and mass student loan forgiveness—could also impact the national debt in unforeseen ways.

What makes up the national debt?
The national debt is composed of both public debt and intragovernmental debt. Public debt includes Treasury bills, notes and bonds, which are owned by U.S.-based investors, the Federal Reserve and foreign governments.
Intragovernmental debt is made up of Government Account Series securities that are owned by federal agencies, such as military retirement funds, public employee retirement funds and the Social Security Trust Fund.
Each year in which the government spends more than it earns in tax revenues,
it runs a deficit for that year, which adds to the national debt total.

How does the national debt correlate to the GDP?
Government spending is often designed to boost the economy, which means that the national debt and the country’s gross domestic product—the total market value of all goods and services produced within the country’s borders—are correlated.
“The national debt is typically scaled relative to GDP, because this allows investors to determine the total amount of the government’s obligations relative to its ability to repay these obligations,” says Rhea Thomas, an economist at Wilmington Trust.
“In addition, it allows for consistent comparison over time and across countries. Countries with high debt-to-GDP ratios tend to be associated with lower long-term growth.”
For the fourth quarter of 2021, the U.S. had a debt-to-GDP ratio of 123.39%, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. That’s almost double what it was in the fourth quarter of 2007, shortly before the Obama administration increased spending to deal with the Great Recession.

Poor America: A trailer park in California, where low-income citizens live
in stark contrast to wealthier U.S. residents

According to a study conducted by the World Bank, a ratio above 77% for a prolonged period could stymie economic growth. In all of this, it’s important to note that the federal government pays its debts with tax revenue, not GDP. Politicians continue to be at odds over how to generate revenues and how to spend those revenues.
“Paying back the debt will require higher taxes or reduced government spending,
both of which are difficult to do politically and result in slower growth,” says Thomas.
“Governments may also choose to print money to pay for debt, but this raises the risk
of runaway inflation and higher interest rates.”

Thomas also adds that as debt levels grow, investors may demand higher interest rates
out of concern over the government’s ability to pay its debts. Higher interest rates would,
in turn, take away from private investments, and it would also require more government spending to make larger interest payments, dampening productivity and long-term growth.
The national debt can be a politically polarizing issue, but it’s important to keep the context in mind for each president. As spending continues to rise without a correlated increase in revenues, the national debt will continue to increase, likely putting more financial strain on future generations.

The Raven: Nevermore

The Raven ~BY EDGAR ALLAN POE

Edgar Allan Poe, (born January 19, 1809, Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.—died October 7, 1849, Baltimore, Maryland), American short-story writer, poet, critic, and editor who is famous for his cultivation of mystery and the macabre. His tale “The Murders in the Rue Morgue” (1841) initiated the modern detective story, and the atmosphere in his tales of horror is unrivaled in American fiction. His “The Raven” (1845) numbers among the
best-known poems in the national literature.

Life
Poe was the son of the English-born actress Elizabeth Arnold Poe and David Poe, Jr., an actor from Baltimore. After his mother died in Richmond, Virginia, in 1811, he was taken into the home of John Allan, a Richmond merchant (presumably his godfather), and of his childless wife. He was later taken to Scotland and England (1815–20), where he was given a classical education that was continued in Richmond.

For 11 months in 1826 he attended the University of Virginia, but his gambling
losses at the university so incensed his guardian that he refused to let him continue,
Poe returned to Richmond to find his sweetheart, (Sarah) Elmira Royster, engaged.

He went to Boston, where in 1827 he published a pamphlet of youthful Byronic poems, Tamerlane, and Other Poems. Poverty forced him to join the army under
the name of Edgar A. Perry, but, on the death of Poe’s foster mother, John Allan
purchased his release from the army and helped him get an appointment to the
U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
Before going, Poe published a new volume at Baltimore, Al Aaraaf, Tamerlane, and
Minor Poems (1829). He successfully sought expulsion from the academy, where he was absent from all drills and classes for a week. He proceeded to New York City and brought out a volume of Poems, containing several masterpieces, some showing the influence of John Keats, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

He then returned to Baltimore, where he began to write stories.

In 1833 his “MS. Found in a Bottle” won $50 from a Baltimore weekly,
and by 1835 he was in Richmond as editor of the Southern Literary Messenger.
There he made a name as a critical reviewer and married his young cousin Virginia Clemm, who was only 13. Drinking was in fact to be the bane of his life.
Poe seems to have been an affectionate husband and son-in-law. Poe was also
dismissed from his job in Richmond, for drinking, and went to New York City.

To talk well in a large company he needed a slight stimulant, but a glass of sherry might start him on a spree; and, although he rarely succumbed to intoxication, he was often
seen in public when he did. This gave rise to the conjecture that Poe was a drug addict,
but according to medical testimony he had a brain lesion.
While in New York City in 1838 he published a long prose narrative, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym, combining (as so often in his tales) much factual material with the wildest fancies. It is considered one inspiration of Herman Melville’s Moby Dick.

In 1839 he became co editor of Burton’s Gentleman’s Magazine in Philadelphia.
There a contract for a monthly feature stimulated him to write “William Wilson” and
“The Fall of the House of Usher,” stories of supernatural horror. The latter contains a
study of a neurotic now known to have been an acquaintance of Poe, not Poe himself.
Later in 1839 Poe’s Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque appeared (dated 1840).
He resigned from Burton’s about June 1840 but returned in 1841 to edit its successor, Graham’s Lady’s and Gentleman’s Magazine, in which he printed “The Murders in the Rue Morgue”—the first detective story. In 1843 his “The Gold Bug” won a prize of $100 from the Philadelphia Dollar Newspaper, which gave him great publicity.

In 1844 he returned to New York, wrote “The Balloon Hoax” for the Sun, and became sub editor of the New York Mirror under N.P. Willis, thereafter a lifelong friend. In the New York Mirror of January 29, 1845, appeared, from advance sheets of the American Review, his most famous poem, “The Raven,” which gave him national fame at once. Poe then became editor of the Broadway Journal, a short-lived weekly, in which he republished most of his short stories, in 1845.
During this last year the now-forgotten poet Frances Sargent Locke Osgood pursued Poe. Virginia did not object, but “Fanny’s” indiscreet writings about her literary love caused great scandal. His The Raven and Other Poems and a selection of his Tales came out in 1845, and in 1846 Poe moved to a cottage at Fordham (now part of New York City), where he wrote for Godey’s Lady’s Book (May–October 1846) “The Literati of New York City”—gossipy sketches on personalities of the day, which led to a libel suit.

The Raven, best-known poem by Edgar Allan Poe, published in 1845 and collected
in The Raven and Other Poems, the same year. Poe achieved instant national fame
with the publication of this melancholy evocation of lost love.
On a stormy December midnight, a grieving student is visited by a raven who speaks but one word, “Nevermore.” As the student laments his lost love Lenore, the raven’s insistent repetition of the word becomes an increasingly harrowing response to the student’s own fears and longing.
The poem consists of 18 six-line stanzas; the first five lines of each are written in trochaic octameter, the sixth in trochaic tetrameter. The rhyme pattern, abcbbb, enhances the gloom of the lyric; the b rhymes are, or rhyme with, “Lenore” and “Nevermore.”
His1846 essay “The Philosophy of Composition” describes his crafting of the poem.

The Raven Explained – Bing video

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,

Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—

    While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,

As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.

“’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door—

            Only this and nothing more.”

    Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December;

And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.

    Eagerly I wished the morrow;—vainly I had sought to borrow

    From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost Lenore—

For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore—

            Nameless here for evermore.

    And the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of each purple curtain

Thrilled me—filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;

    So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating

    “’Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door—

Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door;—

            This is it and nothing more.”

    Presently my soul grew stronger, hesitating then no longer,

“Sir,” said I, “or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;

    But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,

    And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,

That I scarce was sure I heard you”—here I opened wide the door;—

            Darkness there and nothing more.

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,

Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before;

    But the silence was unbroken, and the stillness gave no token,

    And the only word they spoke was the whispered word, “Lenore?”

This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, “Lenore!”—

            Merely this and nothing more.

    Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning,

Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.

    “Surely,” said I, “surely that is something at my window lattice;

      Let me see, then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore—

Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore;—

            ’Tis the wind and nothing more!”

    Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,

In there stepped a stately Raven of the saintly days of yore;

    Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;

    But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door—

Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door—

            Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,

By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,

“Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,” I said, “art sure no craven,

Ghastly grim and ancient Raven wandering from the Nightly shore—

Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night’s Plutonian shore!”

            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

    Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,

Though its answer little meaning—little relevancy bore;

    For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being

    Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door—

Bird or beast upon the sculptured bust above his chamber door,

            With such a name as “Nevermore.”

Raven Symbolism: A Bearer Of Spiritual Gifts.

    But the Raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only

That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.

    Nothing farther then he uttered—not a feather then he fluttered—

    Till I scarcely more than muttered “Other friends have flown before—

On the morrow he will leave me, as my Hopes have flown before.”

            Then the bird said “Nevermore.”

    Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,

“Doubtless,” said I, “what it utters is its only stock and store

    Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful Disaster

    Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore—

Till the dirges of his Hope that melancholy burden bore

Of ‘Never—nevermore’.”

    But the Raven still beguiling all my fancy into smiling,

Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird, and bust and door;

    Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking

    Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore—

What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore

            Meant in croaking “Nevermore.”

    This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing

To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom’s core;

    This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining

    On the cushion’s velvet lining that the lamp-light gloated o’er,

But whose velvet-violet lining with the lamp-light gloated o’er,

            She shall press, ah, nevermore!

    Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer

Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.

    “Wretch,” I cried, “thy God hath lent thee—by these angels he hath sent thee

    Respite—respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore;

Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe and forget this lost Lenore!”

            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

    “Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil!—prophet still, if bird or devil!—

Whether Tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore,

    Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted—

    On this home by Horror haunted—tell me truly, I implore—

Is there—is there balm in Gilead—tell me—tell me, I implore!”

            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

    “Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil!—prophet still, if bird or devil!

By that Heaven that bends above us—by that God we both adore—

    Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn,

    It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels name Lenore—

Clasp a rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore.”

            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

    “Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!” I shrieked, upstarting—

“Get thee back into the tempest and the Night’s Plutonian shore!

    Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!

    Leave my loneliness unbroken!—quit the bust above my door!

Take thy beak from out my heart and take thy form from off my door!”

            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

    And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting

On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;

    And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming,

    And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;

And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor

            Shall be lifted—nevermore!

Thrilled me—filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;

    So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating

    “’Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door—

Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door;—

            This is it and nothing more.”

    Presently my soul grew stronger, hesitating then no longer,

“Sir,” said I, “or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;

    But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,

    And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,

That I scarce was sure I heard you”—here I opened wide the door;—

            Darkness there and nothing more.

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,

Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before;

    But the silence was unbroken, and the stillness gave no token,

    And the only word they spoke was the whispered word, “Lenore?”

This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, “Lenore!”—

            Merely this and nothing more.

    Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning,

Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.

    “Surely,” said I, “surely that is something at my window lattice;

      Let me see, then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore—

Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore;—

            ’Tis the wind and nothing more!”

    Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,

In there stepped a stately Raven of the saintly days of yore;

    Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;

    But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door—

Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door—

            Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,

By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,

“Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,” I said, “art sure no craven,

Ghastly grim and ancient Raven wandering from the Nightly shore—

Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night’s Plutonian shore!”

            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

    Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,

Though its answer little meaning—little relevancy bore;

    For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being

    Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door—

Bird or beast upon the sculptured bust above his chamber door,

            With such a name as “Nevermore.”

Raven Symbolism: A Bearer Of Spiritual Gifts.

    But the Raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only

That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.

    Nothing farther then he uttered—not a feather then he fluttered—

    Till I scarcely more than muttered “Other friends have flown before—

On the morrow he will leave me, as my Hopes have flown before.”

            Then the bird said “Nevermore.”

    Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,

“Doubtless,” said I, “what it utters is its only stock and store

    Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful Disaster

    Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore—

Till the dirges of his Hope that melancholy burden bore

Of ‘Never—nevermore’.”

    But the Raven still beguiling all my fancy into smiling,

Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird, and bust and door;

    Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking

    Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore—

What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore

            Meant in croaking “Nevermore.”

    This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing

To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom’s core;

    This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining

    On the cushion’s velvet lining that the lamp-light gloated o’er,

But whose velvet-violet lining with the lamp-light gloated o’er,

            She shall press, ah, nevermore!

    Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer

Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.

    “Wretch,” I cried, “thy God hath lent thee—by these angels he hath sent thee

    Respite—respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore;

Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe and forget this lost Lenore!”

            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

    “Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil!—prophet still, if bird or devil!—

Whether Tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore,

    Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted—

    On this home by Horror haunted—tell me truly, I implore—

Is there—is there balm in Gilead—tell me—tell me, I implore!”

            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

    “Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil!—prophet still, if bird or devil!

By that Heaven that bends above us—by that God we both adore—

    Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn,

    It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels name Lenore—

Clasp a rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore.”

            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

    “Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!” I shrieked, upstarting—

“Get thee back into the tempest and the Night’s Plutonian shore!

    Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!

    Leave my loneliness unbroken!—quit the bust above my door!

Take thy beak from out my heart and take thy form from off my door!”

            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

    And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting

On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;

    And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming,

    And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;

And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor

            Shall be lifted—nevermore!

Alzheimer’s Impact

Posted on May 16, 2023 by Ken

EN ESPAÑOL | GENES, LIFESTYLE AND AGE ARE SOME OF THE FACTORS KNOWN TO PLAY A ROLE IN ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE, BUT MORE STUDY IS NEEDED.

What We Know (and Don’t Know) About Alzheimer’s Disease.
Research has delivered only limited insights into causes and treatments.
by Kathleen Fifield, AARP.

Here’s what we know:

The risk factor. Age is the greatest risk factor for Alzheimer’s.
For most, symptoms first appear after age 65, though brain-imaging scans show that
the buildup of specific types of proteins related to Alzheimer’s can start wreckage long
before visible symptoms emerge.

Some of the genes linked to Alzheimer’s.
One is APOE, which has several forms. APOE e2 reduces your risk of Alzheimer’s,
while another, APOE e4, increases your risk. If you receive a copy of APOE e4 from
each of your parents, you’ll have the greatest odds of getting Alzheimer’s.

How you live matters.
Researchers have determined that nutritious food, exercise, sleep, socializing and other positive aspects of life are good preventive medicine for Alzheimer’s. One study showed that life changes can reduce your chance of developing Alzheimer’s by 35 percent.

Who you are matters.
Socioeconomic factors, including education, income and even where you live,
play a role in whether Alzheimer’s takes hold. Race matters, too: African Americans
are twice as likely to develop Alzheimer’s as Caucasians; Hispanics are 1.5 times more likely.

But we don’t know:

What causes the disease?
Scientists have yet to learn what triggers the early deposit of abnormal proteins in
the brain or how it damages brain neurons. It’s also unknown why a small percentage
of people who have plaque buildup don’t end up getting Alzheimer’s.

How these genes work.
Researchers have yet to figure out the complex genetic processes that are behind Alzheimer’s. Scientists only know the disease is likely the result of not just one gene
but of dozens of genes — and of the complex interactions that occur among them.

A medicine that works.
There are no drugs available to cure or slow down Alzheimer’s, though some may briefly help with its symptoms. Fully 99 percent of clinical trials of Alzheimer’s drugs fail, and some major pharmaceutical companies have stopped trying to develop this class of drugs.

What other factors might matter?
More study is needed to determine if social factors are causal or if they somehow help build up resilience to the disease through “cognitive reserve,” a sort of stockpile of brain strength, says Jennifer Manly at Columbia University in New York.

Depression | Alzheimer’s Association
Antidepressant and Alzheimer’s

Antidepressants called Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs)
are often used for people with Alzheimer’s and depression because they
have a lower risk than some other antidepressants of causing interactions
with other medications. See more

Dementia devastates the lives of everyone it touches, but our analysis
shows that women are bearing a disproportionate weight of the impact.

Our analysis shows that dementia became the leading cause of death for UK women
more than a decade ago, in 2011. Shockingly, it’s remained at this position ever since,
even at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Two in three people with dementia (65%) are women, and longer life expectancy alone does not explain this disparity. Women are also more likely to care for a loved one with dementia – making up around two thirds of unpaid carers.

Yet across medical research, data from women is too often missing. And in the lab:
female dementia researchers are less likely to move into senior roles than men.

We’re calling for action to tackle dementia’s disproportionate impact on women.
And we must ensure women can make a full contribution to research, both as
participants and as researchers.

The government must deliver on its Dementia Moonshot promise to double research funding. And we’re urging them to convene a Dementia Medicines Taskforce to speed
up progress in finding new treatments for this devastating condition.

Alzheimer’s impact on women
By Staff Reports -May 5, 2023

To the Editor:

On May 14, millions of Americans will honor their mothers, grandmothers,
and great-grandmothers for their contributions to families and society.

Unfortunately, thousands in Ohio have already lost a mother or grandmother
to Alzheimer’s or are currently caring for someone living with the disease.

The hard truth is that Alzheimer’s disproportionately impacts women.
Two-thirds of all Alzheimer’s cases are in women, and an overwhelming
majority don’t know they are at an increased risk for the disease.

There is some good news regarding the inequality of Alzheimer’s occurrence in women. Scientists have identified a gene that appears to increase the risk of Alzheimer’s in women, providing a potential new clue as to why more women than men are diagnosed with the disease. Also, a new study shows that women can reduce their increased risk. Personalized lifestyle interventions — such as diet, exercise, stress reduction and sleep hygiene — were found to reduce Alzheimer’s risk factors in both sexes, but they worked even better in women.

In addition to learning more about why the genetics of being a woman increases the risk
of cognitive impairment, women can join clinical trials investigating the issues of women and Alzheimer’s risk. Women interested in finding out more about clinical trials can go
to alz.org/Trial Match a free matching tool for research studies and treatment trials for Alzheimer’s and other dementia. Anyone can participate. There are trials for those with and without the disease.

While lifestyles are proving to help reduce risks, not everything that makes up a woman’s lifestyle is by choice. Historically, women have fulfilled the role of caregiver for the family, and more than 60 percent of all caregivers are female.
They are our mothers, wives, aunts, sisters, and daughters. When caregiving is provided
to a loved one with Alzheimer’s or another dementia, the toll on the caregiver can be high.
According to the Alzheimer’s Association 2023.

Facts and Figures:

• More than 60 percent of Alzheimer’s and dementia caregivers are women,
and over one-third of them are daughters.

• The overwhelming majority of dementia caregivers who indicate a need for
individual counseling (85 percent) and respite care (84 percent) are women.

• Two and a half times as many women as men reported living with a person with dementia full time. Of those providing care to someone with dementia for more than
five years, 63 percent were women.

• Nearly 19% of female Alzheimer’s caregivers had to quit working either to become
full-time caregivers or because their caregiving duties became too burdensome.

There are 493,000 family and friends who provide unpaid care for loved ones living
with Alzheimer’s. These challenging and stressful caregiving responsibilities often fall
on female shoulders. Talk to your female relatives about women and Alzheimer’s risks
and learn the 10 warning signs.

You can call the 24/7 Helpline at 800-272-3900 for more information and assistance.
According to the History Channel, more phone calls are made on Mother’s Day than on any other day of the year. These holiday chats with Mom — often cause phone traffic to spike by as much as 37 percent. Ignore the increased phone traffic and call your mother this Mother’s Day – or any day for that matter.

Number of Migrant Crossings Drops After Lifting of Title 42.
(Probably Passing them through at 3AM―when Democrats do their best work.)
On May 14, the Biden administration said that migrant crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border have fallen since Title 42 expired. The numbers we have experienced in the past two days are markedly down over what they were prior to the end of Title 42, Alejandro Mayorkas, U.S. Homeland Security Secretary, via Reuters.

According to U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, border patrol
agents have reported a 50% drop in crossings since May 11. Mayorkas said that criminal penalties for migrants entering the country illegally accounted for the decrease in illegal border crossings. There is a lawful, safe and orderly way to arrive in the United States.
That is through the pathways that President Biden has expanded in an unprecedented way, and then there’s a consequence if one does not use those lawful pathways,
Alejandro Mayorkas, U.S. Homeland Security Secretary, via Reuters.

Reuters reports that officials in communities near the border say that the expected
surge of migrants many fears will strain border facilities and towns is still on the way.
The number of migrants we were expecting initially – the big flow – is not here yet,
