The Earth is still spinning

Going to be another sunny day. Checked the weather at our old home in Hazen, ND. Looks like the teens back there in the arctic. Don't miss it. More than likely will be sitting in the sun in a T shirt today here. 

Kadizzle is cheap, and today's topic will be a lesson in cheapness. Lesson number one, don't buy things that are free. Pens are free, five gallon buckets are free, firewood is free, compressed air is free, and water is free. This brings up a story. Kadizzle gave his pet bum some money. Soon there after Kadizzle saw the bum at the gas station. The bum had purchased a gallon of water to give to his dog. Bumore must wonder why he is broke, but when you buy water for your dog the mystery should be solved. 

 Look at your classic person who is busted flat. On their body will be a thousand dollars worth of tattoos, and in their mouth will be a cigarette. The same person will be driving a jacked up pickup truck with a Trump sticker, and of course an NRA sticker. No doubt they spent some money they should have invested for a gun. 

Degenerates always plan to get rich in one simple move. It could be a lottery ticket, a slot machine, or a pyramid scheme. The concept of slowly becoming wealthy escapes the bum walkers. One thing the down and out have mastered is destroying what transportation they do have. Instead of driving sensibly the guy with the desire to remain broke will spin his tires and abuse his car in anyway he can. Of course this includes skipping any maintenance. 

Kadizzle always told his children " No one can steal knowledge from you".  It is hard to succeed in this world without some knowledge. Strangely knowledge can be obtained for free. Of course you can make sure there is no room in your brain for anything but baseball statistics, and other useless information. 

One simple thing anyone can do is watch successful people. What do they do, how do they do it. On the other hand if you hang around with simple minded people it may well be contagious. Where do you get your ideas? If you shop for knowledge on Fox News, and go to Tea Party meetings you may not be buying the best quality information. 

Slavery should have been a great lesson for both the slaves, and the modern capitalist. Rarely do you get rich working for yourself. You get rich by exploiting other people or maybe you actually give them something of value, but generally speaking until you accumulate capital you will gain very little. You gain capital by saving and investing. Schools don't do a very good job of imparting this knowledge. Your typical student does not really understand compound interest, exponential growth, or future value. 

Buy a zippity do da car today, or save and buy three zippity do da cars when  you are fifty?  That simple concept is not imparted to bumore or the people the Republicans exploit. 

This leads to a simple question. Why am I poor? The real reason is more than likely you made a series of bad decisions, but that is no fun. So here come the Republicans to tell you that you are not the cause of your own economic mess. No, it is the Democrats giving all your money to other poor people. You are really a genius, but you have been duped by the Democrats, Donald Trump will save you. 

Now back to an old question, if someone stole your money, what will they have? Answer, your money. Do poor people have your money? No, the car dealer that sold you that piece of junk has your money. He lives in a nice house and goes to Las Vegas. If the poor guy stole your money he would not be living in a tent. Did the insurance companies steal your money, yes. Did the Republicans sell you a Trump flag and give the money to Donald? Yes, now figure it out who is stealing your money. Could it be the lottery, the casino, or the Dollar Store? No, ask any Republican it is the immigrants, and the people on welfare who are robbing you blind.
