“Very Complete – Pretty Much”
America through its arrogance, hubris and sheer stupidity has created the circumstances for the world’s oil price to remain about $150 a barrel for as long as Iran wishes to keep it there. Kudos Donald, you dumb fuck.

The Clock is Ticking
Today, in the Economist, Adam Robert’s spoke about time, and how little the West has, if it intends to resist Russian aggression in the near future. What is, ‘the near future’?

Where is the West’s Line in the Sand?
I cannot help being disillusioned, but more-so worried for Ukraine in its war with Russia.

A Response To the End of Reason
Today I decided to remove myself from the toxic effects of Facebook and social media in general.

It’s Time For a Realignment of Wealth
The gap between rich and poor, has never been greater. Today’s Billionaires, soon to be Trillionaires possess unspendable fortunes while ordinary worker’s wages have been stagnant for decades, and the poorest are living in tents on America’s streets. There is a point at which the lack of fairness combined with the countries enormous social problems…
