Pat, I am OK. You are OK.
"Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.[1]"
WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!
"Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem" — Ronald Reagan (1981 Inaugural Address). “Government is the GOOD."
WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!
Going forward Progressives – Democrats - Independents - the left needs to make the case every day:
“Government is the GOOD."
When you are alone in the room you can be lawless, do whatever you want. You do not need government or its rule of law. When there are two people in the room you have rules/laws to divide the available food, space, pick a corner to piss and shit in, to name but a few of the required rules/laws.
When you are alone on the last undeveloped continent on the planet you can live off the fat of the land for centuries, but not millennia.
When there are 8,000,000,000 people in the room/world with nuclear weapons, borders, manmade or geographical become more and more obsolete. You need a nearly endless array of European/Nordic socialism’s reckonable[2] laws governing pollution, civil rights, product liability, speed limits, traffic signs, redistributive taxation, building permits and so many, many more.
We need redistributive taxation, not because Karl Marx promoted it. We need redistributive taxation because HISTORY has proven THE NEED. We do not need endless avaricious wars of domination or acquisition… or any more proverbial ego trips like the Egyptian Pyramids (2600BCE), Maya pyramids (1000BC), Great Wall Of China (220BC), Roman Coliseum (72AD), Taj Mahall (1631), Palace of Versailles (1661), Biltmore Estate (1895), bigger luxury jumbo jets, multi-billion-dollar sports teams (2000).
And once we realize European/Nordic socialist government is not a threat, true sustainable growth will happen. “Government is the GOOD." Just look at Bill Gates, he spent his productive years building an organization, and in his long retirement he has been saddled with building another organization to give it all away. Gates and others have admitted, that they cannot self-servingly or irresponsibly spend their wealth and do not want to burden their children with it. You could not pay me to live in the “fish bowl” of massive generational wealth or the reclusion of a Howard Hughes.
I wrote a letter to Warren Buffet, when I heard he was stepping down from Berkshire Hathaway. I am sure he never saw it. Why give the money to a lethargic charitable bureaucracies you would have no place for in your organization today? I doubt he would ever WANT TO invest his money in Reagan’s antiquated UNIVERSAL healthcare, emergency room hospitals of all.
Education is going to be radically remade in the next couple of decades. Our current educational system is based on information scarcity. It use to be the only way to transfer data was through vigorous individual rote repetition of a classroom. Today, I sit here at home, with a nearly ubiquitous internet connection, and I can ask Google/Gemini/Siri for the formula for the area of a circle or an explanation of E=MC2. I can ask for the value of π to 4, 10, 20 figures. I can ask for the dates of Lincoln’s presidency. I do not need access to the ivy clad walls of an out of date, academia. Acknowledging utilizing that information without the experience of a lifetime is another issue. And a 22 year old college graduate could never have it.
Wouldn’t reducing the government debt be an as effective use of the money as donating to hospitals or alma-maters? Donate to “Government is the GOOD."
Ronald Reagan liked to use grand platitudes. "Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem" — Ronald Reagan (1981 Inaugural Address). Proverbially with Ronald Reagan’s farewell address 1989 he roughly explained the United States is the bright shining city on the hill that the entire world aspires to.
Reagan’s assertions are NEVER CRITICALLY challenged! “Government is the GOOD."
I was a REAL hands on contractor for 40 years, not like Trump a spoiled rich kid “developing” with daddy’s money. We need professional permitting authorities that look at and approve a COMPLETE plan for sewers, electrical, architectural, structural before you develop a “detention center” from a warehouse for 10,000+ inmates in a town of 5,000 people.
No matter how much money Trump has in his “big stupid bill” it does not make sense building new or redeveloping warehouses for detention centers that are not going to be needed at the whim of the next “Banana Republic Dictator/President” with Chief Justice John Robert’s idiotic unitary THEORY of the presidency.
If Roberts had studied history instead of the FICTION of legal precedent. Roberts would have seen that the many FAILED “Banana Republic “Dictator” Presidents.” Failed because we renamed our constitution and gave it to everyone in the Americas, without the ESSENTIAL core sublime humility and greatness of our founding fathers.
George Washington had the authority to pay or not pay anyone he wanted to from the treasury department; he had the right to, at his discretion alone, prosecute or ignore any and every law and he ultimately had the Commander and Chief’s authority to wage ego wars at his discretion.
Luckily for us he had the ESSENTIAL core sublime humility and greatness of virtually all of our founding fathers. He made no attempt to feed his ego, to profit or personally benefit from the presidency.
We need government today and we will need a bigger government tomorrow to REGULATE our environment, our economy, our information, our leaders[3] and our nuclear power.
Trump says humility and responsible government are both foolish. He got elected as a unresponsible spoiled rich kid who has always been able to avoid humility and responsibility.
But back to Reagan, Reagan’s assertions of government is bad and the United States as a bright shining city on the hill as examples for the world are FLAWED.
Do we need the dictatorships of a Stalin, Mao or Hitler?
NO!
We need a democratic European/Nordic socialism that is more worried about the general health and welfare of the We the People than dominating/blowing up an entire civilization with VERY EXPENSIVE conventional or cheaper and more effective nuclear weapons! Trump thinks his reckless damage and destruction are ok, because he is not doing it with nuclear weapons????
The United States is not the envy of the world, for a “city we built on the hill.” The United States is the envy of the world because of our “hill” i.e., the continent was and is still virtually empty last un-developed “fertile crescent[4]” like continent on the PLANET.
The population of Mexico is 1.89 the density of the USA, China 4.35, the European Union 3.59 and India 11.39. They are coming this way; there is no stopping them. You cannot build a wall high enough, a mote or an ocean wide enough. We are way tooooo lazy to pick all the vegetables, mow ALL the grass, sew ALL our clothes, make ALL our shoes, wait on ALL our tables, change all our diapers, do ALL our day labor or MOST importantly make ALL our cell phones, computers, televisors and A.I. electronics.
Trump’s inexperienced EMOTIONAL deportation desires do not provide any replacements. Once the inevitable issues of deportation become economically unavoidable, M.A.G.A. will be begging for immigrants for the work that is beneath them! There is no magical “invisible hand[5]” of laissez faire capitalism going to save us from ourselves. We cannot pay our workers more than China pays theirs and think that are neighbors will pay us more for the same thing from China.
In today’s new open information world the technical expertise of the old world will not hold. Ely Whitney had a great invention with the cotton gin, but lost control of the profits because, even with patent laws, the idea was too easily replicated.
The United States has lead the world, post WWII, because we did not have to rebuild our houses after WWII. We were free to produce the automobiles and a highway system to improve our lives.
But we lost lead in production for automobiles to the Japanese’s modern engineered production in the 70s, 80, and 90s.
We are poised to lose what little we have left of the automobile market. This time to the Chinese Electric Vehicle (EV). Why? Because Elon Musk’s naiveté and Trump’s and M.A.G.A.’s addiction to fossil fuels with the internal combustion engine (ICE). We are losing to the better “mouse trap” of China’s soon to be ubiquitous EVs north & south of our borders and in Europe already(?).
EVs are a better proverbial mouse trap. The United States has not seen it, because Elon Musk’s Tesla has not seen fit to exploit it and Trump is stuck in the mud of the seemingly too cheap to resist fossil fuels.
Elon Musk started with a good idea, EVs with under 4 second acceleration 0-60mph and few electronic convivences for a premium price.
China has taken EV’s to another level. China’s EVs have 0-60mph acceleration in under 3 seconds (better than Musk’s), better batteries, longer ranges and plethora of electronic convivences that is unfathomable to the stuck in the mud United States’s ICE industry.
Elon Musk has, again naïvely, missed China’s exploitation of the EVs cheaper to produce product. Elon Musk has been for too long seduced by the DOLLARS in a premium priced automobile.
EVs are cheaper to produce and therefor can provide an additional plethora of electronic convivences that are unfathomable to the stuck in the mud United States’s / Detroit’s ICE industry.
Yes, China has a cheaper workforce. But China’s coming victory in the EV market goes much, much, MUCH deeper!
Simple easy to understand numbers - there are fewer parts in the entire EV motor and drive chain than there are in just the carburation system of an ICE. Add to that, you replace the iron mass of a differential and transmission of an ICE with a silicon microchip in an EV. The SAVINGS are MASSIVE in production and propulsion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trump and M.A.G.A. think they will have a market for ICE forever, the love the roar, greenhouse gases be damned.
China is producing a cheaper, a more ecological, a faster, a better product with plethora of electronic convivences that does not make a sound. China has SURPASSED Detroit’s ICE industry and Detroit never even heard them go by!

The last clause of the First Amendment makes any assertion of IMMUNITY unconstitutional.
https://dgjeep.blogspot.com/2026/02/last-clause-1a.html
The Constitution for the United States - Article I, II, and Schoolhouse Rock’s[6] “I’m Just a Bill[7]” clearly define how to make law. Show me where in the amended Constitution for the United States “judge-made-law” is called for or authorized[8]?

The Judicial sophistry of "absolute immunity" creates "absolute power" to the ABSOLUTE CORRUPTION of We the People's unalienable rights under color of law... the AUDACITY of the INSANITY, ignorance and stupidity in support of a "fantastic or delusional" scenario.

[1] "Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem" is a famous quote from Ronald Reagan's first inaugural address on January 20, 1981.
[2] “Predictability, or as Llewellyn put it, "reckonability," is a needful characteristic of any law worthy of the name.” Antonin Scalia: The Rule of Law as a Law of Rules 56 U. Chi. L. Rev. 1175, 1175-81 (1989)
[3] Any and all Immunity from the RULE of LAW, 23-939 Trump v. United States (07/01/2024), is antithetical and diametrically opposed to responsible democratic-representative Constitutional government!
Why would you even waste the “parchment” to write it down and then give immunity from it to an elected president, police officer, judge, prosecutor, appointed official or a would be king?
[4] "The Fertile Crescent and nearby areas had 32 (of 56) largest-seeded grass species growing wild…. The Fertile Crescent was similarly blessed with a greater variety of edible wild legumes… All of the wild ancestors of the world's most important domestic animals -- sheep, goat, cow, pig and horse -- originated in Fertile Crescent/Eurasia… Civilization arose in the Fertile Crescent…" "GUNS, GERMS, AND STEEL The Fates of Human Societies" By Jared Diamond
[5] I truly hate the naiveté of Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” as if it was miraculous outgrowth of laissez faire capitalism. Adam Smith wrote and rewrote just two books/tombs in his lifetime. Both of them used the term the “invisible hand.” But there ought to be law that says you can not use the term, unless you also include the circuitous premise of the 1,000+ pages of Smith’s two tombs.
Thanks in advance...
