Rising Prices and Shortages

 We are seeing the prices going up again. We are facing electricity shortages. And horrible weather which is going to impact the exporting of commodities going through the year. And unfortunately, the possibility of WW III. When we look at prices in the stores we are seeing them go up. During last week’s walkthrough of Kroger, I noticed that Kroger's brand of pasta has gone up to $1.23. They had a sale of 3/$4. Walmart’s pasta is still $.92 however, it was sparse. This is insane. That’s a $.23 jump. 


China is having a different problem of course. They are keeping their citizens hostage in their apartments. Apparently, they are having another COVID-19 outbreak. The videos coming out are disturbing. Which reminds me that back in the fall they were told to stock up on their food. At least a years worth. Actually, that was meant for the provence governors. It did get out to the public. It was like Black Friday on speed.

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...

Book and Chapter Review

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
