Why I Won't Vote for Trump

In 2016 I decided to vote for someone who could create full-time employment like people in this country once enjoyed. You know, the one job that could support a family of four. Two tax returns could cover the cost of a vacation every couple of years. I thought Trump was that candidate. Nope!
  1. Jobs, Jobs, Jobs. This is the first reason I won't vote for Trump again. As an entrepreneur, Trump should know how important it is the create meaningful and permanent full-time employment. With benefits such as full insurance (health, vision, dental, and mental). Instead, what we have gotten Hauwaii has canceled contracts which means people in California who are the definition of working poor. They are homeless in spite of working two-part time jobs if they are lucky enough to have one. Del-Monte is closing two planets. The cost of aluminum is going up. Also, the products to put in the can are going into a shortage. 
  2. Less Military Intervention. We have seen military intervention multiple rather than reduce. As long as there is a Poppy plant in Afghanistan, our military will be doing the bitch work of big pharma. Trump said he would bring our soldiers home from Syria. No! Every time he announces planes to bring our military home from Syria something happens and more of our loved ones get sent over to protect Israel. 
  3. That brings me to the last promise Trump made and hasn't keep. Making America great again. No! He has been spending so much time make Israel great again. Never mind the fact they have a nuclear industry and booming tech industry. However, we are still supporting their military. While our citizens are living in third-world conditions. There is a county in Alabama where people are living without proper sewage. They now have ringworm which had been "eradicated" is back with a vengeance. 
As for the wall, I don't want it. If it is built, it'll be Berlin Wall 2.0. We will be as trapped behind that wall as the people of East Berlin was trapped behind the wall for forty years. I am 48 and I don't know if I could take being trapped behind a wall for forty years.

War Is A Racket

  This is an excellent quick read. If you don’t have ADHD, it’s a quick read. I started this book before Thanksgiving so between the holidays and every day crazy train I finally finished it. Of course, I made notes in each chapter about my thoughts. We’ll see if this helped compared to the chapter-by-chapter review we did on The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man by John Perkins.  Throughout the book, General Butler covers the ins and outs of war. He looks at the financial cost and the human cost. He starts out by explaining how the military-industrial complex was formed. Which I do think is critical. Most people in America don’t understand what the military-industrial complex is. Never mind how it is used. I am not going into detail here just read The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man. You will understand the order in which things unfold. The minority of Americans know who profits from war and who doesn’t. General Butler covers that as well. You will notice I said ‘m...

How America Angered God Lust

  We left off at Wrath. Now we will continue this list and finish it out. Sin: Lust This is the sin that nails us all. It is wanting power, pleasure, and money. Not necessarily all of these but one or all.  I grew up in the 1980s so when I think of examples of this particular sin I am reminded of Jim Baker and Jessica Hawn. He was married to Tammy and lusted after two things; money and Jessica. Their lust brought them down in the end. Tammy had her own lust for money that contributed to their downfall.  Ten Commandment:  Thou shall not commit adultery.  Virtue: Chastity Being chaste is recommended by Christ. In the book of Mathew chapters 19: 12 and 22: 20 Christ talks of being chaste. Being chaste teaches discipline. https://youtu.be/7Y8lHwOIu_A
