The King and I: Tariffs. Who Protestist The Mostest

Posted on by Helena

ANALYZING TARIFFS AGAIN AND AGAIN…

So, Macron and The Economist are stating that he will be anointed King of the EU – soon…  Which explains his media presence, his military strutting, his demand that France decide Ukraine and Russia’s fate, and his détente with President Trump.  The mini-me Napolean has the intellect of an amoeba however, he has gratiated himself via his ability to bow scrape and obey no matter the humiliation.  And that’s all that matters.

Whether the EU will survive at all is subjective.  Today, Ursula Von der Leyen gave a public lecture wherein she professed that the EU not just embraced the values of the Talmud, but that the EU was the Talmud.  The Talmud was thus quoted:   1)  Even the best of Goyim should be killed.  2)  When a Jew murders a gentile there shall be no punishment.  3)  A Jew may have sex with a child as long as the child is less than nine years old.   You get the spirit.

Von Der Leyen is a Goyim.  Macron is a Goyim.  Trump is a Goyim.  All of which becomes more than a bit dark as they pledge their own deaths.  What transpired during Netanyahu’s visit to the US?  While the visit was parlayed to be about the tariffs, it is more likely it was a warning – Trump was acting outside of the Cartel. And that would be met with harsh punishment.  The main issue would apparently be Trump’s agreement to meet with Iran’s President, Masoud Pezeshkian, who has agreed to connect on neutral territory in Oman.

Following the dictates of Israel, Trump had promised to ignite WWIII and bomb Iran.  Détente has been called and Netanyahu is NOT pleased.  Tucker Carlson has continually weighed in on the outcome of a war over Iran stating the obvious – American soldiers would die by the hundreds of thousands.  Civilians would die – potentially by the millions.  For what purpose?  To eliminate Iran at the behest of Netanyahu given Israel knows they would cease to exist should they initiate.

Russia would defend Iran and given the animosity provoked with China, they would side with Russia.  Europe would crumble in a defeat worse than WWII. 

Meanwhile, the democrats are meeting in an illegal closed door faction outside of normal regulations to figure out how they can bamboozle Trump before his tariffs work and he eliminates the federal income tax – their bread and butter.   Billionaires are screaming about the tariffs destroying their corruption and money laundering schemes, and the Epstein papers remain a barely audible tingle in the background.

Woefully ill-prepared for the Trump EFFECT, everyone is dancing on the monkey head as he begs for his life.  Including, oddly, Rand Paul.   Ted Cruz – predictably. 

Cruz and Paul both call the tariffs a tax without mentioning the concept of replacing the federal income tax.  The reality of a tax on goods instead of earnings is the fact that it becomes optional.  Consumers have the option to buy or not buy – altering demand.  They have a choice to alter their purchases.  A Tax on earnings is nonnegotiable.  It is a means of forcing citizens to tithe to the Cartel government.  Promoting the ever expanding government which became the mainstay of the Biden Regime.  For the government, by the government, all in for the government – employment numbers were BASED on an ever expanding – government while businesses contracted sharply!

The naysayers of tariffs site the 1930 Smoot Hawley Tariff Act.  It too became a fight between the democrats and the republicans.  In 1942, the US began to promote free trade, by 1950, the trade imbalance had begun its reversal and a steady decline ensued.    The promotion then and now was led by the wealthy.  Because trade imbalances are played.  Elite profits are exponentially higher when low labor costs can be leveraged in other countries.  Creating greater poverty throughout Africa – and at the time, China.   This poverty helps to support the land grabs, the coups, the stealing of resources such as diamonds, minerals, and water.

Tariffs tend to equalize profits as most tariffs are reciprocal.  Demand and supply economics rises, and the middle class is restored.  In the 1930’s it was JP Morgan who screamed the loudest.  Today, JP Morgan is calling for a global recession.   Because the elite will suffer the greatest HIT.  

It is always wise to Listen to The King And I (Great Movie) when taking note of who protestist MOST when researching and analyzing – more often than not that factor alone will dictate the whys and wherefores.

New York City – Hate the City… Love the Shows!

Posted on by Helena

I hate New York. I hate the tall buildings, the stench, the trash heaps every fifty yards. I hate the smell, the taste, the lacking ethics, the livelihood of New York. It is squalor, putrid, materialistic, greedy and corrupt. There is no redeeming value to New York, except… the theater and the museums!!!

Oh my gosh!

I saw two fabulously perfect Broadway shows; The King and I, with Kelli O’Hara and Ken Watanabe and An American in Paris, with Robert Fairchild!   Oh my, I laughed and I cried – they were so staggeringly stunning!  I toured the Frick Museum and the Met and visited Soho, Little Italy, Fifth Avenue, Central Park, and more in just over four days! It rained, it poured, the sun shone brilliantly and the clouds hovered and threatened. It was four and ½ days and I am exhausted! Not just for all the walking, the taxi’s that were oblivious during torrential downpours, the street vendors, the garbage, the arrogance, the attitude, the pushing and shoving, the muggings and more…but for the unrelenting ‘buzz’ that everyone is required to sustain.

I am home now and definitely quite happy at the familiar landscape. But there were certainly great things that were housed in a city where scaffolding and garbage 20 feet high greet you every single block every day all day!

I would have to comment on the Frick Museum and the Metropolitan. The Frick for the decadence of its existence. It was built by Henry Clay Frick for his most beloved and beautiful wife. Every piece of limestone, every lay of wood, of ornament and chandelier were breathtaking. It encompassed an entire New York City block and housed what could only be described as the most amazing collection of artwork, sculpture, porcelain, antiquity and antiques in the US. Then there was the Met! Spanning 4 city blocks, the museum could easily take a week to experience, but we had just a few hours and so chose to dally at the John Singer Sargant, Portrait of Artists and Friends, exhibit. Studying each, and the inscription identifying it, I became so drawn into the man, I could not escape. He was at once amazing. dashing, intriguing, artistic, debonair, attractive, magnifying, magnificent, perfection in art, and I wished I could have known the real man. He drew me in and I was spelled!

I stayed in my friend’s condo on the 29th floor of a building in upper Manhattan. A good to better neighborhood, she paid a hefty pence for the right to live in this 1043 square foot abode. It was a bonus that the elevator took a sort of hyper-speed to reach the ground floor where a doorman would greet you with a smile. But despite her spending $50k to have new noise proof windows installed, the noise must have bounced, because it was not dissipated – at all and was a constant symphony rehearsal played by five year old students… At night, I slept fitfully by blasting the air conditioner to whiten the cacophony.

In New York you cannot have a – garbage disposal, ceiling lights that are recessed and cordless, washer-dryers without special permission, ventilation in bathrooms or kitchens, or any delivery without a proper delivery receipt. Rules abound! At present, New York charges a premium tax on residential purchases over $1million, which in New York City would apply to everyone given the cost of a condo. But then everything costs a premium, to such an extent that my friend found if she flew to her home city of Larkspur across the Golden Gate Bride from San Francisco with her monthly dry cleaning and monthly confixation of her hair, she would save money rather than having these things done in New York. So she does, and it gives her a break from the perilous living.

And while life isn’t perfect back home, while skeletons still stalk my days, at least I have the open skies, the mountains in view, brilliantly green trees and grass, the bantering of squirrels and the sweet trills of birds. I have my grown children, my elderly dog and my abode of friends who love me.

Life isn’t perfect, but then, at least, “I try…etc., etc., etc”.
