A Visit To "Some assembly Required"

It has been VERY HOT here in DFW  --  especially since our air conditioning has been on the fritz (not working).  We do have a window unit in our bedroom  --  it's been a very important thing to have  --  especially for an old person like me.  The room our computers are in is about the hottest.  Currently it's only 84 degrees F.   --  so I can actually sit here for a while.

Anyway, it's time for a visit to "Some Assembly Required"  --  follow link to original.

"The relationship between those who are constantly watched and tracked, and those who watch and track them, is the relationship between masters and slaves." - Chris Hedges

About Wages: Corporate profit margins are at new highs, feeding the stock market boom which enriches the 1%


Chickens, Roosting: Nearly all of ISIS top leadership were imprisoned by US forces in Iraq in places like Abu Ghraib.

Short Form: According to the UN's IPCC, global climate change is “severe, pervasive and irreversible.” (And it may well temporarily result in extreme snowfalls.)

About Inflation: Interest rates on 30 Treasuries have fallen to 3.06%, which suggests that investors do not see any inflation on the horizon. In Europe rates have been creeping ever lower, with 10-year German notes below 0.9% and even Spain (Spain!) borrowing money for less than Uncle Sam. Must be something in the water. 

Money For Nothing: The 2012 Ron Paul's presidential campaign secretly paid one of Michele Bachmann's campaign aides $73,000 to abandon her, join Paul and badmouth Michele's chances. In that she never had a chance, seems to reflect rather poorly on the Paul campaign's smarts. On the other hand, they did appeal to the same fringe group...
