HAKA to You In ’17

From: GemStatePatriot.com                  

My last several years before retiring I worked for a national management consulting company traveling eight northwestern states and four provinces of Canada. During our interviews, we always asked the question ‘What would you say are your company’s three biggest problems?” Invariably one of the answers was the constant need to find good people.

That was 7 years ago and I’m sure not much has changed and yet there are plenty of Americans looking for jobs. In our internationally competitive world today where second and third world nations have awakened and can no longer have their resources and labor exploited, reality is that many of them are now viable competitors of ours. We can’t afford to sit around crying about the way it was and wanting to turn the clock back while demanding job security and guaranteed anything. Businesses have no guarantees and must stay vigilant to competition and changing environments all the time.

In a totally free marketplace, workers, as well as their employers, must work hard at doing the best they can at competing all the time. There is no room for complacency.

The attributes of what I call HAKA is the closest we can come to job security today. So by now you are no doubt asking what the heck is HAKA? Of course, professors, phycologists, and good salesmen can turn this upside down and inside out to say it their way. But this is my way.

HAKA is an acronym for Health, Attitude, Knowledge, and Application. And I say it is all that we all have going for us.

Health – We can’t do anything well for long if we’re not healthy enough. I didn’t say handicapped. I said and mean health. We must take care of ourselves, ’cause these bods we walk around in are our temple, factory, and bank. They can only give from what they have.

Attitude – Our attitude has to be right. We can’t last long with a bad one without going downhill. Attitude includes ambition. With the right attitude, we can even accomplish things that are literally over our heads and even for which we are not remotely qualified.

Knowledge – It really matters not if it came formally or informally from experience, however formally can be a great shortcut. Knowledge is the most recognizable attribute one can have. Much can be accomplished with a little knowledge.

Application – Or what we do with the first three attributes is probably the most important. Application is our effective use of our time to apply our knowledge, with the fire of our attitude and the stamina of good health. It’s what we do with what we have that’s most important. The more stamina we have the more positively realistic we are and the more we know and apply it all the bigger our advantages.

So, I say these four simple attributes are all any of us has going for us. Without them, guarantees mean nothing, with them we are guaranteed offering the best we can be in the marketplace of jobs in services, manufacturing, or marketing. That is because job performance is what an employer needs, is looking for and will pay for. He’s not paying for motions or personalities. Accomplishing at the level of performance an employer needs is the closest thing there is for job security and comes from adhering to what I call the attributes of HAKA.

I can’t stress enough the major importance of a good attitude and application.

HAKA, HAKA, HAKA to you and yours in 2017.

Obama’s Trying to Salvage a Legacy… No Problem, He’s…

From: GemStatePatriot.com                  

What’s a guy to do when a lot of people are readying to take down just about everything he has worked for the last eight years. I suppose words that come to one’s mind include: pout, scramble, call in favors, coerce, make quid pro quo deals, create diversions, and lie, lie lie. Also, if you are Barack Hussein Obama, you go on vacation. Go figure.

THE PUTIN RUSE

How scared is Obama about not having a Legacy to put on exhibit anywhere, let alone a desired building dedicated to his believed greatness and many envisioned accomplishments? Well, he is so concerned, reportedly, he recently used that ‘red phone,’ you know, the ‘nuclear one,’ to warn Putin to not meddle in our election. However, the news source on this story is not so credible anymore. It was his good buddies at NBC News who happened to report it when he needed it reported on December 19th and that ‘important’ call was supposedly made on October 31st! Interesting.

All this Putin blaming is close to assuredly a ruse, with no real substantiated backing. Reportedly, is the word and our government agencies’ findings have really not been reported to us with evidence? Again, interesting. Do you really think Putin wanted Trump to win the election? Give me a break. See my last article, Putin Would Prefer Hillary.

OBAMA’S LEGACY OF RECORD SETTING

‘101 Unfunded Mandates And Counting’ is the title of a report from Sam Batkins, the director of regulatory policy at the American Action Forum, from which I quote, “The Obama Administration has set several notable records in the regulatory world: 600 major regulations and counting, more than 10 billion hours of federal paperwork, and the costliest single year in regulation in recent history. It’s time for another record: 101 unfunded regulatory mandates imposed on states, local governments, and businesses. From 1996 to 2008, since the inception of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA), which establishes a regulatory procedure for these federal mandates, there were only 88. Broadly, an unfunded mandate is defined as a regulation, without explicit Congressional consent or adequate federal funding, which may displace state or local priorities. President Obama managed to easily top 13 years of unfunded mandates in less than eight.” See rest the of this impressive report at this link: ‘101 Unfunded Mandates And Counting

When Obama couldn’t win support for his legislation, he relied on executive orders that could, and almost certainly will, be reversed by President Trump, everything from immigration reform to reducing carbon emissions. And don’t forget his legacy of corruption in various government agencies such as the IRSJusticeEPA, and BLM, just to name a few. Also see: ‘The Crime of the Century‘ – White House Corruption. And now his most recent preposterous rule change drastically affecting national security: ‘Obama Scrapping Registration of Aliens from Mostly Muslim Nations.’

The above list and more was featured in my December 15, 2015 article ‘Democrats Should Be Ashamed of their Leader.’

All this and did you notice, I didn’t even have to emphasize the lingering bad taste from the waste and damage caused by ObamaCare which was really another ruse to take us into the socialists” world of single pay government insurance.

Let me leave you with an interesting poll that my favorite TV news commentator on Fox Business News (FBN), did. Lou Dobbs asked the question, ‘Will Pres Obama go down as the worst president in history? His responses were Yes: 88%, and No: 12%. Now that is a legacy.

Actually, I almost feel I should apologize to FBN’s Stuart Varney, Neil Cavuto, Charles Payne and Maria Bartiromo because it is nearly impossible to call one of these Greatest American TV news commentators the best. If you haven’t already figured it out, Fox Business News is where it’s at, when you’re looking for the best there is in original-source, vetted TV news.

Non-Perfect Trump Is Perfect for Our Time

From: GemStatePatriot.com                

Donald Trump is the right leader for today’s patriots who are ‘Fed Up’ with Big Government’s extreme overreach of its enumerated powers dissolving our freedoms and commerce with overwhelming quantities of new laws, regulations and taxes. Our commerce cannot compete in a world market of competitors who operate without these overwhelming constraints. Although not perfect, and who is, Mr. Trump is probably the perfect prescription for America right now. We must get back to our roots: The Constitution, adherence and enforcement to the Rule of Law, abolishment of all un-Constitutional laws and regulations and excessive taxes that have been strangulating our vital lifeblood businesses that provide jobs and taxes for our system to run on. Who else do you really believe would have made such a commitment to the American people without financial backers and political ties?

He is no wallflower, puppet-like, Obama type, but a guy that understands what America is really about, has lived with the word accountability all his life and knows how to accomplish difficult tasks independently without needing handlers. He is a veryprofessional manager or chief executive, if you will! Just what we should have been looking for.

All members of the U.S. Congress take heed: Throw off the shackles of your leadership that is influenced by OTHER$, find your patriotic backbone, organize your fellow members and help straighten this mess out now that you have a leader that knows what must be done and is capable of accomplishing difficult tasks. President Elect Trump’s arrival is like a God-Send for American patriots.

Most members of Congress spend their time doing what could be called ‘busy work,’ believing they are micro-managing ‘for’ people back home. They spend entirely too much time around $PECIAL INTERE$T LOBBYI$T$ and members of the Council on Foreign relations and the UN. Our republic wasn’t designed for those influencers to ‘accommodate.’ It was designed for elected officials to work on protecting: our freedom, our land, our sovereignty and our states’ rights so the states can do for their citizens what the states are enumerated to do for them and then everything else is for the U.S. Congress and the states to stay away from since it’s not their job and none of their business.

The word FREEDOM means that we should be free from government control! Most of our ancestors would have stayed where they came from if they wanted to be micro-managed by government controls. Do elected officials not really remember or understand the oaths they took? ‘…to uphold and defend the Constitution…?’

Many of us are not feeling too gentlemanly since U.S. Senators and Representatives have been voting very un-patriotically. Their voting records are an abysmal average of 45% in the U.S. House and 32% in the U.S. Senate in voting with our Constitution in the third 6-month index of the 114th Congress. – This voting record for the U.S. Congress called the Freedom Index can be viewed at JBS.org. This poor voting record reveals exactly why we are in the mess we are in today.

It is a testament to our Capitalist system’s resiliency that we have endured as well as we have so far while rapidly backsliding under such erosive abuse. But this erosion will finish us for sure if unchecked as sure as ancient Rome went away. Socialism just takes, and produces nothing successfully for long that can be taxed. Socialism always fails. Capitalism succeeds. Capitalism’s profits are the roots to all our taxes. Nothing else.

WITH OBAMA, WHO’S NEEDED ENEMIES?

But we still do have international enemies – who no longer fear us, but now our friends do fear us. Fox News Anchor, Lou Dobbs asked the following poll question, “Can you think of any enemy or rival of the United States that President Obama has NOT accommodated?” 95% of the vote answered NO.

And supporting all this are Barack Hussein Obama’s big media lackeys and a sorry Congress overlooking all that is being done straight in front of them because they are part of the problem: – inept or part of a contriving machine that’s directing them. There are hardly any full blooded patriots among them. Save for a couple hands full.

Speaking to our U.S. Congress: Why has this apparent fraud with no accredited documentation of past friends, professors, students or his student records remained in the White House when there have been so many grounds to impeach him on? Look up: 350 Articles of Impeachment against Obama and The case for impeachment of Barack Hussein Obama. The devil couldn’t have crafted a better selection to undo so much that is good and meaningful to our once great nation. Where has been your patriotic fervor? If the likes of the devil is in the White House, obviously residing as a puppet with strings being pulled by unknown, diabolical handlers, but nonetheless, rapidly taking us away (with his phony poker face fully engaged), have you been good with that because you haven’t had the backbone to stand up for America against an orchestrated effort or are you irrelevant? You could have found your backbone and impeached the deserving scoundrel while we still have his 57 states. (You can still see him on UTube in Beaverton, OR on May 9, 2008 stating that he’s visited all but one of the 57 states.) Although, he’s been so talented with his oratory skills, I suspect he’s already taken 7 of them away from us and we haven’t even noticed. With tongue in cheek, I’m sure that, every day as he has prayed to Allah, he makes it a point to give thanks for his teleprompter, his puppeteers, his kingdom and the 7 ‘hidden states’ he might already claim as his own.

FYI, look up the Top 10 “Most Corrupt” List Dominated by Obama Administration article on the internet, which includes a list of many related articles that expound even more. If only all Americans had read “Impeachment Support Soars as Voters Say Feds “Out of Control” back in 2013.

IT IS NOT A PARTY THING

Democrats should be embarrassed and sickened at the brazen ruination of their party by its hi-jacking by extreme left wing socialist crazies. States former Georgia Governor and U.S. Senator Zell Miller, a staunch democrat, in his book ‘A National Party No More,’ “All left turns may work on the racetrack, but it is pulling our party in a dangerous direction…It is a system that “Cuisinarts” individual thought into a mushy party pudding – a system that expects one to go along with the team even if the quarterback is calling the wrong signals….this never- ending back-and-forth partisan ping-pong game of revenge needs to end – for the good of our country.”

Republicans should be righting their ship from the effects of the fraudulent neo-con members and clandestine leaders who are overrunning their party’s platform. Both parties are just maintaining their gentlemen as usual lifestyles to wait their turn or see what happens because that’s the way they are. They’re luffing in the wind, under the direction of others, letting our country’s freedoms and commerce starve on a path to passing away. Most U.S. Congressmen and Senators have their heads in worlds of grandeur and self-aggrandizement and need to be replaced with hard working patriots who take their oaths and responsibilities very seriously!

The BHO administration direly needed adult supervision and Congress has been ‘out to lunch.’ We want some fire in the bellies, hell raising and whatever it takes to start getting this abomination that our government has become back to the well-designed government that took us to becoming the greatest country on earth as the result of following the Rule of Law found in the U.S. Constitution and our Bill of Rights. Not living, breathing constitutional law as interpreted by virtually unlimited lawyers at the behest of $PECIAL INTERE$T$ and the Council on Foreign Relations and the UN and approved of by Congress complemented by the avalanche of executive orders that have been thrust upon us.

‘THE LAW’

Quoting ‘The Law’ by Frederic Bastiat: Legal plunder can be committed in an infinite number of ways. Thus we have an infinite number of plans for organizing it: tariffs, protection, benefits, subsidies, encouragements, progressive taxation, public schools, guaranteed jobs, guaranteed profits, minimum wages, a right to relief, a right to the tools of labor, free credit, and so on, and so on. All these plans as a whole — with their common aim of legal plunder — constitute socialism.

“No legal plunder: This is the principle of justice, peace, order, stability, harmony, and logic. Until the day of my death, I shall proclaim this principle with all the force of my lungs (which alas! is all too inadequate).” Try to imagine a regulation of labor imposed by force that is not a violation of liberty; a transfer of wealth imposed by force that is not a violation of property. If you cannot reconcile these contradictions, then you must conclude that the law cannot organize labor and industry without organizing injustice.

Socialismlike the ancient ideas from which it springs, confuses the distinction between government and society. As a result of this, every time we object to a thing being done by government, the socialists conclude that we object to its being done at all. We disapprove of state education. Then the socialists say that we are opposed to any education. We object to a state religion. Then the socialists say that we want no religion at all. We object to a state-enforced equality. Then they say that we are against equality. And so on, and so on. It is as if the socialists were to accuse us of not wanting persons to eat because we do not want the state to raise grain.

“If the natural tendencies of mankind are so bad that it is not safe to permit people to be free, how is it that the tendencies of these organizers are always good? Do not the legislators and their appointed agents also belong to the human race? Or do they believe that they themselves are made of a finer clay than the rest of mankind?

“It seems to me that this is theoretically right, for whatever the question under discussion — whether religious, philosophical, political, or economic; whether it concerns prosperity, morality, equality, right, justice, progress, responsibility, cooperation, property, labor, trade, capital, wages, taxes, population, finance, or government — at whatever point on the scientific horizon I begin my researches, I invariably reach this one conclusion: The solution to the problems of human relationships is to be found in liberty.” — Unquote from Frédéric Bastiat

The publisher of Bastiat’s book ‘The Law,’ the Foundation for Economic Education, speaks of another of his publications ‘Economic Harmonies:’ Harmonies is a natural complement to his earlier works. Bastiat uncovers the great truth that lies at the heart of society, namely that the interests of all people are fundamentally compatible, that there is and can be no antagonism between the welfare of one and the welfare of all, and that all people can live in peace and harmony provided there is a free and open market for goods and services.”

THE ‘RIGHT MAN’ FOR OUR TIME

American exceptionalism is still alive but not so much thriving anymore. Our freedoms and vital lifeblood commerce have been literally strangled to death eliciting small chatter from Congress and not much else as though they are really not plugged into reality or have been just waiting for our inevitable end. I’ve had the impression they consider the task of reversing it all is just too much work and so complicated it’s overwhelming. Maybe Congress is just too close to the problem and cannot see it. Like the enginemen on the Titanic who were probably oblivious to icebergs and an irresponsible captain shunning his responsibility. Or could they just be mentally affected or disabled by too many LEGI$LATIVE INFLUENCE$?

Well, the doctor is in the house! Dr. Donald J. Trump has the prescription for patriots to Make America Great Again if only they sign on and do their duty by honoring their Constitutional oaths. The way I see it we have been given this one last chance to right our ship with the right kind of leader who has no allegiances, ties or loyalties with special influences. Unfortunately, Congress is going to need a lot of prodding and threatening by their bosses, our citizens.

THE VITAL INGREDIENT THAT HAS BEEN MISSING

As a nation of, by and for the people, it is we who have been sorely missing. Our citizen government’s citizens have become so complacent and non-functional that it is no wonder the vermin have taken over. We must start questioning all major news media, instead seeking original source, vetted news such as can be found on the internet at, for instance, The New American.com and independent newspapers such as Benewah Republican. We also should not trust a thing politicians say, but only believe what they do and know how they vote. Study their Freedom Index voting records in Washington, DC and purge the chaff and replace them with real patriots at the voting booth.

Inflated Job Reports Are Result of 30-Hour Week Requiring…

From: GemStatePatriot.com                     
The 30-hour work week was thrust upon us by ObamaCare and the lost income had to be replaced by finding 2nd jobs by most affected workers. Those second jobs were counted as new jobs, which in fact they were, but should not count as jobs that put someone who has been out of work in a new job. Such has been the contrivance of the manipulating and propagandizing of the socialist world of Barack Hussein Obama (BHO).

It is of the simplest math: ½ + ½ = 1 not 2. Real new jobs, for the most part, are not there. These have been jobs that were split in half and shared, so to speak. I’ll work half of my job and work half of yours if you work the other half of mine. Great!!! But new jobs were really not created.

This was all done to bolster job reports. Fake job reports, if you will. Which are right in line with the current revealing of the fact that fake news abounds. This is all so in line with the observation that BHO expects anything that dribbles out of his golden mouth to be accepted to be fact, just because he said it.

The first time I heard the words “hope and change,” I had to say to my wife that change, especially fundamental change that will transform America can be a very bad thing! How prophetic I was. It is consoling to find out I was right but I wish I had been wrong. I feel great now, realizing that our recent election was a total repudiation of all BHO stood for.

A SOCIALIST PUPPET RUN BY ELITE GLOBALISTS’ PUPPITERS

Obama has been a guy with no private sector work experience, or for that matter because his records are still sealed, for all we know, absolutely no experience other than running his mouth as a ‘community organizer’ for socialist objectives and a ne’er-do-well politician with one very successful trait, the ability to skillfully lie while projecting a poker-faced presentation exuding confidence and sincerity. His handlers constantly kept him programmed, on teleprompters and an eye on him by his best bud & personal handler and fellow Chicagoan, Valerie Jarrett who like BHO is also a devout Muslim. Their transforming has actually ended thousands of jobs in energy, manufacturing, distribution, retail and across the spectrum.

THANKS TO AMERICAN PATRIOTS WHO BACKED TRUMP WE GET A REPRIEVE

These Americans realized that government doesn’t run anything well and certainly shouldn’t have a thing to do with healthcare. All the agencies, regulations and healthcare stuff have really been all about gaining control, a database and fundamentally transforming America into a member state of a global government run by unaccountable, unelected global elitists who know best about everything for everybody. Goodbye freedom.

Thank God for our Americans who know what America is truly about and voted for Donald Trump. Our very sovereignty as a free nation depends on secure borders, our rule of law being followed and enforced, and our resourceful culture restored to our winning ways of successful commerce in a Capitalist world free of strangulating regulations and excessive taxation by bureaus and agencies that truth be known, constitutionally, shouldn’t even exist.

With an astute businessman who knows how to accomplish success in a world that demands factual accountability at our helm and assisted by a like-minded team of seasoned business professionals focusing on what it takes to eliminate business strangulating taxes and regulations we will truly begin producing job reports that are not fake news but are heralding real ‘newly created’ jobs.

Needless to say, the 30 Hour European style work week needs to go the way of Brexit as soon as Mr. Trump is sworn in and bags ObamaCare. We are NOT Europe! We escaped Europe, remember? This is America! Like it or not BHO, real Americans like to work and earn our own money and not insanely play the dream world of socialism.
