I Had An Idea On ID/Voting

 If it makes perfect sense to have voting without an ID....why can't we have announcements to run for Governor, Senator, and President....without showing an ID?

You know...just show up to the county office without an ID, and get my name onto the county commissioner ballot?  

Now, I admit....I might not use my real name....maybe something like 'Hocus Pocus', and you accept my $200 registration fee....without demanding any legit ID.

Seven Observations

 1.  Maybe just my gut feeling....but it seems like one-third of all customer service people...are literally 7th-grade mentality.  

2.  If your state has deemed kids to have mentality and intellect to make their decisions by age 13....open a suitcase for them, and carry them to the county social office....leaving them there for 'handling'.  The kid will eventually figure out things.

3.  All this cannibal-gangs chatter in Haiti....just where did this come up before?  If the White House agrees to bring Haitians up to the US and dump them into communities?  I just don't see how the public would be agreeable....knowing one or two out of every fifty were cannibals' in nature.

Also, this would trigger Americans to ask....what's worse....ISIS thugs or cannibals?

4.   Maybe it's a crazy thought, but if Trump walks into the White House in 2025...something in my head suggests that US Army or National Guard presence will be a regular thing, with 10,000 permanently based around the city....to protect against insurrection, or fake-insurrection.

Just seems like the Democrats have opened up a wild crazy period.

5.  Of the 25-odd million migrants who arrived before this current 'herd'....did they get free hotel rooms and $10,000 debit cards?  No.  I'm guessing they are peeved to the 9th degree.

6.  Just odd how Covid ended....folks under 70....about a 99-percent survival record.  Almost fits a flu-epidemic.

7.  Before the late 1920s....in the farming area I grew up in (Alabama)....they had no electricity.  If you try talking about this period of time.....no one much wants to hear about it.  

Smuggling Story

 I sat and watched a brief piece from yesterday....FBI 'boss' saying ISIS has a new income gimmick.....helping to smuggle people into Mexico...to cross the US border.

Pay per person?  Unknown.  

Numbers?  Mostly unknown.

How did the FBI figure this out?  Oddly, that part of the story wasn't readily told.  I thought over how the FBI works.  One might imagine FBI duo with nothing much going on, and walking into a refugee center to ask stupid questions. Ten minutes later....'holy smokes' is probably the response, and they file a report.

'Smuggling-R-Us'?  Well....yeah.  They figured out some unused freighters exist, and rig up hauling couple hundred....probably charging $5k a trip.   Couple million in profit....dock for half-a-day, and return for second run.

How they would stop this?  Unknown.  Even if Mexico enforced some control on docking....you could slide into Honduras and dock there to unload the crowd.
