What if income tax was 100% for some or all? Would it be enough?
by Hawke — published Mar 10, 2022 — last modified Mar 10, 2022 08:16 AM — filed under: ,
A recent (and recurring) debate once again, as in the Washington state news today their "family leave program" is already running out of money, and someone stated "taxes just aren't high enough, especially for Jeff Bezos", but is this true? Ignoring psychology and reality, what does the straightforward math say? Would it be enough?

by Hawke — published Feb 01, 2022 — filed under: ,
We have been having a terrible time getting any of our deliveries lately. Apparently this isn't so much a staff shortage or other supply issues, apparently it is a generational/age issue...

Science-based reasoning: Japan anti-mandate, compulsion, coercion, or discrimination regarding vaccines
by Hawke — published Jan 16, 2022 — filed under: ,

Equity Versus Equality, Communism, Karl Marx From Each According to Ability to Each According to Need
by Hawke — published Jan 04, 2022 — last modified Jan 05, 2022 07:49 AM — filed under: ,
In recent years, especially under the Obama and Biden administrations, Socialists and Communists have stopped pretending under the guise of "Progressives" (whom the Marxists consider insufficiently socialist), and have openly mandated "Equity" over Equality, directly in line with the Communist Manifesto an Karl Marx's teachings.
Globally Lowering IQ of the Past Several Decades - Flynn Effect Reversal - "Dumbing Down" or just "Different" Cognitive Functioning - Consequences of Age-ism and Impact on Freedom

The following is highly controversial. You have been notified. I thought maybe I was just being an old curmudgeon at age 50, and that is not mutually exclusive, but it turns out the research data does indicate that, for whatever causal reason (lots of debate there with no definitive answers), there is clearly a globally dropping of the global IQ over the last few decades. There is debate about different types of intelligence, but this doesn't seem to be that issue. It appears indeed that Human beings around the world are regressing.

Dune 2021 Part 1 Review
by Hawke — published Oct 23, 2021 — last modified Nov 06, 2021 04:35 PM — filed under:
As the promos states, "a visually stunning" adaptation by Denis Villeneuve, it is very visually epic, though consistently weirdly much darker in visual tone without respite. No internal monologue. Unfortunately it appears to have apparently been written, directed, edited, and produced by people with no understanding of the Dune books, plot, politics, history, internal physics, setting, or apparently even the English language. Unfortunately all of the acting, even from the actors with historically good acting, was weak, wooden, and mostly monotone. And for canon-lovers, beware, your head will explode. :) Also really broken sound mix.
