The 10,000 Ton Boat Anchor on Biden

 Basically, the clock is ticking and there are 1,365 days until the next election.

If Biden goofs up on the economy, triggers the loss of 2-million-plus jobs, has unemployment up around 6.5-percent, and has settled massive taxation upon the public.....then Trump runs and wins.   

The blame for the downward spiral of the economy?  It goes entirely to Biden.

So every single day that some brilliant idea comes up to push taxes up....shut down various industries, or cause economic issues to boil....some guy or gal on the team will bring up the ticking clock and if Biden really wants to go and f**k with the economy. 

Biden will shake with rage, but he's basically in a race to do almost nothing to the economy or face helping Trump to make a comeback.

Bernie Sanders and Senator Warren will be furious, but this weight upon Biden is tremendous.  

I do agree....they will all chat a lot, but in terms of getting a consensus going and willing nature to get something done?  They have to be constantly worried.  

Ten Things I've Come to Notice or Anticipate

 1.  The chief problem with wokeism....you will eventually run out of clowns who have some perceived feeling over racial justice or social issues.  

2.  If you developed a checklist for non-essential values....you'd be shocked to find out that politicians aren't that essential, while topless dancers seem to actually have value (at least in getting you to buy more drinks or spending on lap dances).

3. People now watch televised political chatter....like they watch professional wrestling.  There's good guys, bad guys, and fake referee action always taking place.  Some guys get run out of town, and then some guys get 'revamped' then return to town.

4.  There's probably some Biden-team organized up now....to find some trick job-training gimmick (instead of coding), when two or three million jobs are lost by the summer of 2022.  Their chief problem....they've never been around working-class people, so they aren't that sure about who they are trying to help.

5. In some darken corner of the White House....President Biden probably has a Alexia set up and connected into the wall, and about every three hours....he's asking it to resolve such-and-such problem.  Then some funny voice comes over it....kinda like Trump's voice....giving Biden some bone-headed answer.

6.  I expect by the end of 2021....some folks will be demanding that the Beatles 'White Album' be renamed because it suggests supremacy.  The same folks however, can't name a single song from the album.

7.  I expect some PhD study to be done on kids in the Chicago region this spring, and results to come as schools let out.  The results?  Most 5th-grade kids are at the 3rd-grade level with all the days out because of Covid-19.  Oddly enough, they also will point out from the 5th-graders that went to the 6th-grade, four percent were more than capable of handling the 6th-grade already and probably ought to skip onto the 7th-grade.  

8.  At some point this year, 62-percent of academics will admit they really don't know what socialism is, but if it pays more than capitalism...they are all for it.

9.  I expect some kid in California this year to demand his right to be a Klingon warrior, and be recognized with the right in school to carry around a Klingon sword.  

10.  After all the Biden EO's fall into place, the immigration folks will be faced with this one single guy who claims to be Honduran but doesn't speak any Spanish.  Badar Sanchez will be given a 100-question test on Honduras and know less than three facts about the country.  Eventually, he'll be sent to some US government project to teach him Spanish and the history of Honduras.....so that they can eventually work with him and get placed properly in the US.  A year into this, Badar admits he was originally from Afghanistan, and he's fairly messed up now....knowing more about Honduras than the US.  

Observations

 1.  Since day one of the National Guard deployment into the 'Green Zone' of Washington DC....the cost factor is presently at $483-million (figure the hotel situation, meals, per diem paid to the Guardsmen, and getting from 'home' to the 'Green Zone').  Reported here.

Odds of this continuing past 1-billion?  I would actually and suggest it being near $2 billion before the entire episode is ended.

2.  I noticed that the CBO folks, who analyze projects for Congress....came to study the $15-an-hour wage deal.  In their judgement, approximately 1.4-million jobs would be cancelled out (gone).

If you figure the timing of this....if this were pushed toward the end of 2021....the 1.4-million folks would be ripe for discontent just as the mid-terms come around.  So I'd just go and suggest this wage deal is number one on Biden's 'to-do' list which will be halted or cancelled.

3.  The George Floyd murder trial will start in roughly a month.  It came up yesterday that the governor of Minnesota has ordered activation of the National Guard for this period of time (figure a minimum of two months).  

How many?  Unknown....the governor has been tight-lipped over how many are going to be 'deployed'. The police admit that they are somewhere between 10 and 20 percent undermanned presently for Minneapolis.  

Fear of riots?  There's a certain fear that all four policemen will be acquitted or it'll be a hung-jury.
