Our Leaders are Nuts-and so are We .

 Every day  I live I think I have "seen it all" and every day I am wrong ! Stupidity  Keeps Improvimg on itself!
Our  Shepherds and the Flock are both nuts !

  It seems killing and maiming are in fashion and  perfectly OK - depending on what Side you are on and  Beating the Hell out of people to "protect them" from their Evil ways?  is   also the IN thing to do . Now they want to Nuke the planet  because a few  ding- dongs can't get along( or get it up -;)

Isn't it time to  change things and Save Ourselves and our Children?

Remove Everything for Peace and Love

Removing statues is like removing pencils so people won't write  hate books.  Removing flags is the same. Last year we banned the Confederate flag and bigotry  is still alive and well it seems .

Symbols  mean different things to different people.  Symbols don't cause people to act. People choose to act !
Will we now change all the street names and  our family names ?Breckinridge lane , Adolph ? No more Archie's-( remember Archie Bunker?)Should Jefferson Davis  Musuem  and Obelisk in Fairview ,Ky. be closed? Davis went to Transylvania and West Point. Let's close them ,too .
Should  we get rid of chocolate so people won't get fat? Let's close  drug stores so people can't get pain killers. Some  people take offense to the big Noah's arc In Kentucky . Should we get rid of it?

Should we paint ourselves a different color to show solidarity for other races? Change our religion?
Should we not travel to Germany or Russia , Asia    Or the Middle East anymore , or anywhere ? Everyone has done something mean at one time or another...

Once all the "symbols "  statues, flags , words ,objects , names and places are removed in America will we now have  unity , peace and love?  
The answer is  absolutely NOT!!Quite the opposite is true . Tolerance and respect for others is the answer . If you don't like something -look the other way,don't go there,  or just don't do it yourself!

Freedom Works!!

The Only Rule Necessary At All!!

The only "rule "that  human beings should be obligated to follow is : Do not initiate  the use of force  or fraud  to get what you want. Individuals own themselves  and their   property .  The fruits of their labor  should be  at their command . You can only  get  what you want by volluntary  cooperation.
Our whole planet lives under  the coercion and control of  mobs and elites who think they are entitled to tell everyone else what to do- and steal their stuff , or eliminate  people  entirely they disapprove of for  one reason or the other
This is the key reason  the there are so many, unhappy, violent, unhealthy and unfortunate people everywhere !
Individuals need to reclaim their Liberty! We should  love and respect the only life  we will live and demand all the busybodies and tyrants leave  us alone .  These high powered  parasites  need to get a real job In the marketplace - where they actually  have to work and produce something of value you  want  or need .
We all know the current system  of taxation is stealing  and redistribution. Pure force plain and simple. !War is mass murder - your tax dollars at work. Padding one groups pocket at the expense of another's. Destroying   and killing  people and property in the name of "making us safe"   Totally sick, in my humble opinion.
The way to a  so called safe society is happiness and opportunity for all through  truly free enterprise,private property, individual liberty and personal responsibility. The natural right to Be the Best that you can be!!
Love and charity are when  each of us reaches out to our fellow humans voluntarily.
The more we embrace coercion and the managed society our Governments  shove down our throats - the more we live as pathetic childlike  slaves begging permission to be who and what we were born to be- fully functioning intelligent  responsible FREE men and women!!!

Freedom Works!!!

 Something really worth watching- in my opinion of course!

Self 0wnership is Real Freedom!

 The  mere Idea that people that lived before you ,whether it  be thousands of years ago or just yesterday,RULE you and are entitled to your body, property, and labor  through a  so called  non-consensual  "social  contract"  is so absurd it would be funny if it were not a Reality  on planet Earth  today!

In my opinion, this  unique  behavior  practiced by  humans demonstrates how truly stupid "we"  are as a species. Apparently the large brain and supposed intelligence that goes with  it didn't do  us  any good when it comes to understanding what living conditions  produce a peaceful, prosperous , meaningful and happy life for us critters! And  the big brain doesn't seem to help our learning skills or memory either; since time after time we have been shown in horrific and deadly ways that power corrupts- and absolute power corrupts in   Much Grander Style !!

Do  thinking adults really need  or want " guidance" AKA regulations , rules, punishment and  a childish cash "allowance""from their   so -called  " elected representatives" from the cradle to the grave?   I thought being a grown-up was about charting your own course, making your own decisions and learning how the world works through personal experience! I am  age 66  and still asking for permission from my "superiors" to do my thing, lol

 I think  many people  know they are being screwed by a host of  PC's (privileged characters )  and   Institutions  but would rather not admit it-and face the despair of knowing you are at  your "owners"mercy with little to no recourse . 

 Why is NOTA - none of the above- not on the ballot ?

  Is  our government  afraid that given  the opportunity  We the ordinary people   would choose freedom and personal responsibility-also known as living a fully human life?

 I would !!

The Left and Right in 20 Words

The "left" doesn't want to worry about losing their Job,
and the "right"doesn't want  anyone to do anything Kinky!

Ask why -not how!

 As I observe the  world around me /aka  my environment/ space - I ask myself " Why the violence and discord "?  The answer is simple and stark.  Individuals who impose their will on others by force , negating the natural desire of each human being to think and choose his or her own values is a rude disgusting and arrogant behavior.   Politics and  so called rules are the name of this "game" . I say stop playing the game  and enjoy life and  the wonderful interesting people on  this earth!! Variety is beautiful and interesting !! Learn  something!!

I'm Alive and Sixty- Five . I am Me and I am Free!

 I did not say" I live in a  Free  country." I get tired of hearing this statement. It's, vague, confusing,  meaningless and dishonest.

 First   of all -  a " country " is  a piece of land... aka Real Estate. Land  ownership costs money.  Also,  "Land " does  not determine the  Freedom of those who  reside  there.  Land itself  has no  opinions , rules or monetary costs.
 PEOPLE do that! -" Rulers" AKA Governments- tax and enslave their  subjects-  giving them rules  and regulations.  Don't Blame" the land"!   Government likes its " Good " citizens to  SHUT UP, PAY and OBEY!
Land  has no personal prejud
ices  regarding behavior of  its inhabitants.
Land  lives by the laws of  nature. That's it. No  man made rules or biases.   Land appears to "live and let live " I think.
 We  Individuals  are about  as " Free" as  we  want to be.  Freedom is a state of  mind- a  personal belief/ attitude-  that says " I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul." and I own myself. I take responsibility  for my life- the good and the bad.   I am a Grown-up.
  The  Government  is also a belief  or attitude of authority and responsibility resting  outside of the individual . It is the belief  that you have privileges  bestowed by superiors who are necessary to  control  your behavior,  supply your basic needs, and protect you from yourself.    Totally condescending, wrong, illegitimate , wasteful, mean,  disgusting  and more in my  opinion!!!
  Do  you  believe that ancient dead  people who  were born  long before you  are entitled to  set the rules you will follow and  claim all the  important stuff until the end of time? NOT ME!!!
 This " idea"  is the  reason
so-called  civilized  humanity is  the mess it is today, I think.    Do not be mesmerized  by other people who tell you they know the  " truth" and the  way and will give you three hots and a cot  with  wholesome entertainment  thrown in- from the cradle to the grave   . If you believe  Government Loves you ,  you are  in " la-La Land"- and will  get what you deserve:
   A " Free Lunch with food poisoning, a lumpy mattress and  old black and white  B rated  movies  " LOL!!


 Back to the original topic of Freedom. Have FUN , DO your THING Honestly and  Peacefully without Coercion. !
 BE a SUPER  SALESPERSON-  not a BULLY!!  IT'S   FUN  TO HAVE FRIENDS- NOT FOES!

Love, Donna 

Donna Mancini would make Government TEENIE!!

Thats the way I like it UH-HUH- UH HUH........

Hey , I am a PEACE AND LOVE CHILD OF THE 60TIES.Those wonderful years When I rejected Authority I am glad I did.

I Don't believe other people know what is right or best for me.I am all I have in the way of leadership.

How logical is it to believe that someone
who has never even met you, cares about you and knows what is best for you? I think the idea that our polititans and representatives have our interests at heart is wishful thinking, naïve,idiotic, juvenile, etc, etc. In reality They have a fat job blowing YOUR money and telling YOU what to do , and it you don't OBEY , the Guns are on the WAY!

Also, to make a long story of government control of the health care industry short: As a Hospital dietitian in 1976 I made $202.00 a week;$154.02 net. I paid 11 CENTS a week for group health insurance. You read it right. 11 Cents! $5.72 a year. Zero percent of my income to be exact. Fast Forward 37 years: Gross pay $690 a week. Ninety bucks a week for health insurance. 20-25% net pay. This is of course EFORE any trips to the doctor, hospital or pharmacy. I think it is accurate to say that we are modern day slaves to the government controlled and regulated health/insurance industry. There is no such thing as a Free market in health care and there has not been for many years. People used to just pay their own medical bills like any other normal expense before the government got involved.When I was a kid my mom took me to the pediatrician for $3.00. Doctors used to make house calls for five or ten ..... US GOVERNMENT MOTTO:If it aien't broke- Fix it till it IS!

Sex,,Drugs and Peter Pan

I'm Sixty and Frisky;
I like nachos and Whisky.

Plus I can still get it ON!
My parts still work;
and the desire is not Gone.

Mad ,glad or sad
I just shop till I drop
No violence for me-
Just coupons and Iced tea!!

I don't watch TV, and I swim to feel Free,
and my Body and Brain work Damn Good for ME!!

Every Nite, my man and I walk in the woods
and talk about life.
Exercise and Nature do wonders-
to bust stress and strife!

In my Cadi sedan, Off stays the radio-
Exception to the rule: Storms and Tornadoes

My CD player, serves me well,
entertainment and tunes, when driving is Hell!

From My childhood I play Peter Pan,
who taught me to think lovely thoughts, and beleive that " I can".
At night, In my dreams I fly like a bird in the sky at will, and never take a sleeping pill!
I eat good food and am growing tomatoes. I watch my weight and skip fried potatoes...

At this point I don't need a Doc- But when I do:
I'm Going to POT!!

Americans Waste a Wad on the WAD!

I am sick and tired of hearing so called marijuana reform advocates talk about the " failed" War Against Drugs( WAD).
It's like they are saying that the reason the WAD should be ended is because it is being "LOST";since the WAD costs billion of dollars, more people take drugs than ever at a younger age than ever, and party animnal's are clogging up the courts and prisons and law enforcement is bribed and corrupted with big bucks! Of course these are indications that it is not acheiving its intended goals and wasting alot of taxdollars - But WHAT if the Government were Winning- Would it Be OK then? What if they just tried a harder to get us to Just say NO to Drugs ?
The Government could really Get" Tough" and just shoot everyone on sight who was using or selling any illegal substance! This technique would reduce the number of users Immediatly, free up lots of court and prison space, and save advertising money which would dramatically reduce size and cost of the WAD.
Would this mean the WAD was WON and could be declared a "success"?

Corpses don't complain to their "MisRepresentatives"- so maybe the answer is YES ;-)

Another concern on this topic that burns me up: You never hear anyone in the Media or any of our Rulers asking anyone WHY they risk life, liberty abnd property to ingest outside ingredients into their Bodies!! Don't they give us any credit at all for being human and having personal tastes or desires? Could the answer simply be - Some people like drugs, and find the experience pleasurable, and are drugs are easy to manufacture or find because of Econmic Reality 101: Supply and Demand and visa-versa.


Now, the real point of this "op-ed" :
THE ARGUEMENT AGAINST THE WAD SHOULD FOCUS ON ONE AND ONLY ONE ISSUE in my humble opinion:
We own ourselves and what we choose to put inside ourselves is no-one elses business.Furthermore, there is nothing wrong with wanting to feel good, relaxed or "HIGH".So people should quit apologizing for themselves! If I was writing a CONstitution for America it would be real simple- one line- one FOUR letter acronym easily understood by All:

MYOB/ Mind your own Business!!
Period, Amen.

Let's quit talking about what people ingest, or what they do for entertainment- and focus on the Big Picture!
What are you actually making of your own life- If you are a self suppporting/ non violent adult in private or given the permission of the Property owner - its no one elses concern how you behave!
Are you using force or fraud against anyone else? Are you supporting yourself with honestly earned funds? Do you provide for your dependents ? Are you minding your own business in the privacy of your own home?Do you clean up after yourself?

In essence: If you hold down a job,don't cheat or steal,keep your children from playing on the railroad tracks and Cut you Grass- Pun intended:)

You are a GOOD Humanoid by Me!

In Praise of Profit

" I like Money" From the movie 'Idiocracy'

Profit is Proper. Profit deserves Priase. Profit is a beautiful concept- as it is only possible when individuals or groups produce a product or service that other people want, need and like, and put their Money where their mouth is and BUY the thing! This is WONDERFUL in my estimation. Someone, somewhere is doing something RIGHT and getting rewarded for their efforts!
Most people that profit-WITHOUT GOVERNMENT PRIVLEGE, FORCE OR FRAUD- are making other peoples lives better- and thus helping their fellow human beings pursue happiness.

Those who pooh-pooh profit either no not understand or want to deny that Behavior has consequences. Hard work,planning, intelligence and good management of resourses should be encouraged, praised and rewarded. Profit is money left over from the costs of doing business- either to give to the employees, investors or to expand the business- for a Job Well Done.

Reality Check: Some businesses and people of course have short term" there is a sucker born every minute" philosophies. Buyer Beware! There always have and always will be " crooks" on the Planet. Government and law enforcement was supposed to get rid of these types, but the last I heard they were still around........

What would be the point of working or running a business if Profit or excess product of some kind suitable for trade with others were not your driving force? Why do people admire " non- profits"? Would LOSS or failure be a laudable goal? My answer is NO with a capital N. What is it about the term " non profit" that some folks find so appealing? Why is it that making money to provide neccessities and pleasures for yourself and others is scorned by many people and not given the respect it truly deserves? In my mind this is one of the Great Mysteries of Life.

Could Jealousy and Envy possibly have a part in this seemingly "unique" human phenomenon ? ;-) Sour Grapes so to Speak?

So, to all of you Entrepreneurs and Business Owners out there who ARE making a PROFIT- I say Thank you . My Hat is off to you. Keep up the GOOD WORK!

My life is Better for your efforts.

For those of you who are NOT Faring so Well: Be thankful for those who are- becuase the balance of our lives is dependent on their creative ability and success.

I Dislike Government

I will NEVER like Government and their Offspring:" Bureaucracy".

They are STUPID, WASTEFUL and ALWAYS Make Matters WORSE!


More of my Poetry:

Government is RUDE,
Government is NASTY,

This may sound CRUDE:
But I'm No PATSY!

GOD

When an Individual says he or she believe in GOD It seems to Me like they are trying to admit they don't know what caused creation or Life , but feel Like they SHOULD know. By using the term GOD- they cover their bases- since there is no way any human mind can define or understand the Ultimate and Infinite, at least in my humble opinion...

I am very Happy to announce that I don't have a CLUE about Who, What , When , Where, Why or How the universe began- and I don't really care.

I just want to enjoy my LIfe on the Planet, with the People I LOVE !
I do KNOW that Life is GRAND!

Want Life? EAT BROCCOLI

Last night some guy called my house soliciting donations for a " Pro LIfe" organization. I politely let him know that my definition of " PRO-LIFE" is daily exercise and eating Lots Of Broccoli!!

What is Legal?

The term Legal means what your Masters allow you to do, without threats of punishment. Your Rulers main objective is to eliminate their competition,by gunpoint if necessary. Doing something "illegal" genenerally means you Questioned Authority, and hopefully Rejected IT!! GOOD for YOU! Thinking Works!

Tokes, Toddies and Freedom

I'm 59
I Drink my Wine

I could smoke Pot
But I choose Not

Since my My Nannies in Washington say I Cannot!!

A toke or a toddy-
It's my Own Damn Body!!

And What I put in it
Should be Up to Me!


How can this be? I am told I am FREE'

But Reason tells Me I am NOT.

Donna Mancini's version of JFK's Quote

" Ask Not what your Country can do for you; but what YOU can do for YOURSELF, if your 'Country' just leaves YOU the Hell Alone!"


I Believe in Freedom!

Get the Government out of the Health Care Business!

Governments run up the cost of essential goods and services, by making them so called “rights” or entitlements. When something is “free,” people overuse it. When it is paid for by other people aka third parties or insurance, the people using the goods and services don’t care what they are charged because they aren’t paying for it, which ultimately raises prices for all. Service providers are guaranteed payment by the government or insurance company, and not wanting to or having to deal with delinquent accounts like others in the so called “free market” – (we cannot in reality say we have a free market in America because almost everything is Regulated by bureaucrats) – providers hesitate or refuse to give care to those who do not have the insurance or government coverage.

Also a huge idiocracy (check out the movie- its hysterical) is formed which is expensive, inefficient, dumb, and wasteful!

Alas, after the costs have sky-rocketed due to entitlements for some and regulations for all, most individuals cannot afford to receive medical care without risking financial ruin if they do not have insurance or the governments “help.”

Now, along comes Uncle Sam, declaring the situation a crisis! The government has decided it wants to further control the market, raise taxes and expand the entitlements, which will in turn raise the prices even more, and force people to pay for goods and services they do not want or need. The flip side of this is the government will prevent them from receiving services or products they DO want and need. Your money and your health care choices are reduced or eliminated. You are worse off than before. More government; less freedom; economic and personal. The government gets the coal mine, the people get the shaft!

The correct solution to the is to get the government out of the health care business altogether like it was in the 1960 ties before health care became an entitlement and was bureaucratized. People paid for their own routine care and saved for catastrophes, or bought low cost hospitalization insurance. Individuals could buy insurance in the free market to suit their own budget and pocketbook. Private charity, churches, and all kinds of voluntary associations as well as and the medical profession themselves did a great job of providing care for the poor and down trodden. That was they way it worked before government intervention into health care and it could work that way again.

Health care prices would drop like a lead balloon and become affordable, like other products and services not protected from competition in the free market place. Our lives would not be dominated by the fear of getting a serious illness and losing everything we have and have worked for in life!

Economics 101: People will take or use what is free, whether they need it or not.

People will waste and abuse what they do not own or work to pay for. Basically, people are not as concerned about how they spend other peoples, or “the insurances companies,” money as they are what comes out of their own bank account, even though the reality is, the insurance company and the government got the money from them in the first place!

NOTE: I use the collective word “People” with literary license, as I fully know not ALL people overuse the system and folks ARE frugal with third party payments. However, it appears that enough people do follow the negative behavior I have described so as to make present day insurance prices a burden for the rest of us. We have lost site of the original function of all forms of insurance which is help cover a catastrophic loss. Health insurance should have never begun paying for routine care. This was where it all went astray.

Health insurance started with hospitalization insurance, and did not cover routine doctor visits and preventive care. You paid for this yourself, like an adult, and prices were cheap. When I was born, my parents paid for my doctor and hospital bills out of pocket. My dad saved money and paid the doctor out of his paycheck. I don’t know the total costs, but my mother said it was 3 dollars a day for the hospital nursery. This was in 1951.

My great grandfather, who lived 6 days shy of his 100th birthday in 1960, was a graduate of the University of Louisville medical school, doctored and delivered babies in Louisville’s West End until he was 85 years old. Sometimes he just got paid with chickens. He was not a wealthy man to say the least. He lived in a modest home with his extended family until he broke his hip and was placed in a rest home a few months before he died. He also chewed tobacco, and drank a concoction of whole milk and raw egg every day of his life! So much for high cholesterol or hardening of the arteries in his day and time.

I digress even further as I report that “Grandpa” was sued when he was at fault when he had an accident while driving his Model T Ford – and settled for the magnificent sum of seventy-three dollars!

One more bitch about government meddling before I end this epistle. The War on Drugs which is truthfully the war against the individual’s right to be left alone and control his or her own little hunk of flesh! How much more of a slave can a person be, than to be told what he can or cannot peacefully ingest even in the privacy of his own home.

I cannot accept this. It freaks me. This one thing alone was enough to make me despise our government and withdraw my support from the MOFO’s.

First, a little about ME: I was born in 1951, graduated for High School in 1969 , and married the first time in 1976, Gave birth in 1979,divorced, and got married the second time( the good one) in 1984. In my day and time, talking a walk, coming back in laughing hysterically and heading for the food table was a normal course of events at almost every party! Buts its MY generation, the Baby Boomers or more accurately stated the Baby BUSTer’s” who are now running, looting, killing and bankrupting the US and the rest of the world, who are shamefully locking up, robbing and murdering their own kids for using the same substances they did growing up, and YES: THEY DID INHALE! I exclude myself from this group of hypocrites because I have continually and consistently spoken up and out against this sick and evil travesty known as the War on Drugs.

In the sixties, I grew up saying things like: “The world does not owe you a living,” and “Sticks and Stones can break my bones, and words can never hurt me,” and listen to this one: “Prove It” – Yes we used to say prove it when people fed us a line of BS that did not make sense!!

We had a song with lyrics that said: It’s your thing, do what you want to do. I can’t tell you, who to sock it to, and “I’m a true nature child, I was born, born to be wild.”

Also, Ringo Starr observed that, “Everything the government touches turns to crap,” and Abbie Hoffman said, “How can I talk about the government if I can’t say fuck?

Fellow Humans: please reclaim your lost liberty NOW, as it is quickly becoming a fading memory……… Like “Camelot” when King Arthur, Guinevere and Sir Lancelot sought “Right Over Might”!

In Closing: What is your opinion of this ACTION PLAN?

Call or write your so-called “officials and representatives” and tell them, in a nice and polite way of course, that violence and coercion disgusts you and you believe that voluntary co-operation and free markets are the way for individuals to live and to structure their societies. You withdraw your support for the political means. You are a rational human being and want to make your own decisions about how to spend your money and run your own life in your own self interest. Period. Goodbye. It’s been REAL: Thank you very much. Then, stop voting, sending money, and don’t associate with the scoundrels. Also, turn off the 4th branch of the government known as TV and radio and ignore the propaganda and focus on what you see! Live life in the present as you see it yourself!

True freedom can’t be tamed!
