Nothing Will Happen.

They will just continue to laugh in our face.

I don’t ice skate so there is no chance that I can play ice hockey. At least Putin admits we are on the eve of war. The illegal Biden administration has led us to the eve of destruction.

North Carolina’s largest hospital systems made billions of dollars in profits during the pandemic, while simultaneously taking $1.5 billion in taxpayer-funded COVID-19 relief funds, according to a report released Wednesday by the state treasurer’s office.

The report, titled, “North Carolina Hospital Systems Profit During COVID” was published by State Treasurer Dale Folwell who called on the hospital systems to “use their profits to lower costs for patients” or “return unnecessary, taxpayer-funded relief dollars.”

According to the report, Atrium Health, Cone Health, Duke Health, Novant Health, UNC Health, Vidant Health, and WakeMed made a combined $5.2 billion in net profits in 2021 and recorded $7.1 billion in growth in cash and financial investments from 2019 to 2021.

Six of those hospital systems enjoyed higher net profits than in the years before the pandemic, the report states.

That growth came as the seven hospital systems reportedly took $1.5 billion in taxpayer-funded COVID relief meant to help support hospitals who were struggling through the pandemic, as well as another $1.6 billion in Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payments from 2020–2021.

“These systems boasted huge reserves, but they still took the bulk of the relief funds meant for struggling hospitals – and then failed to dedicate more than a fraction of their windfall to increasing charity care for their suffering patients,” Folwell said in a press release unveiling the report.

…

The report further found that despite their reported profits, the hospital systems shared little of it with disadvantaged patients, noting that a third of North Carolina hospitals spent less on charity care in 2020 during the peak of the pandemic.

I have no expectations that this country can survive until January, 2025 under this illegal administration. Sometimes, normalcy bias kicks in and I wonder if we can vote our way out of this. Then reality sets in.

The average IQ in America is 98, according to IQ tests. Source

That means the average IQ in America is 86 due to COVID-19 lockdowns if Bill Whittle is correct.

The good news is that our children’s indoctrination will be decreased as “educators” abandon this sinking ship.

“It’s The Inflation, Stupid…”

Today, America’s job market remains resilient, with healthy job creation, low unemployment, and almost two job openings for every unemployed person. But dangerously high inflation has left Americans deeply dissatisfied with the economy. At 8.6% as of May, the annual consumer-price-index inflation rate is quadruple the norm of recent decades, and has outpaced wage growth, leaving most families with falling real incomes. Even core inflation – which excludes volatile food and energy prices – is running at 6%, higher than in other major economies. No one under 60 has experienced anything like this in their adult life.

The above article outlines fallacies that should be quickly recognized:

1. The job market is not resilient.
2. There is no healthy job creation.
3. There is no low unemployment.
4. The information comes from the Bureau of Labor statistics.

Let’s put this into perspective by outlining the Great Resignation:

There’s no turning back from the workplace changes brought about by the Great Resignation, according to the expert who coined the term.

Organizational psychologist Anthony Klotz predicted in May 2021 that the Covid-19 pandemic would lead to pent-up resignations. Since that time, millions of Americans have quit their jobs; a record 4.5 million workers walked away in March alone.

The initial surge was due to the backlog of resignations since workers weren’t quitting during the height of the pandemic, he explained. They also were burned out, unhappy and reevaluating their lives.

Many employers have adapted to meet workers’ needs, albeit slowly in some cases. They are now addressing employee wellness, including mental and financial health, and are offering remote work opportunities.

What is not discussed is the fact that people are going Galt. They are either not working or have switched to the underground economy where their wages are higher and they do not pay taxes. What also is not discussed is the impending economic collapse that is being referred to as a recession.

There is one problem that they cannot conceal: the average American working family is broke. They can no longer afford food, gas and energy to heat or cool their homes. Change is now here and it was the same change all Communists offer in their version of Utopia: tyranny, no rights, indoctrination, sexual perversion and shortages.

It will be interesting to see their propaganda and disinformation campaign as the 2022 elections get closer.

Has the civil war started? The overturning of Roe v. Wade has had two consequences:

1. It has delineated the chasm between red and blue states and the blue states are closing ranks.
2. It has shown that the emperor and his minions have no clothes. The promised mass civil unrest was a manufactured threat which did not materialize.

Where does this leave us? People still cannot afford food and gas. In some cases, it is a moot point as shortages make the cost irrelevant. People have maxed out their credit cards and their quarterly retirement plan reports coming out next week will show the consequences of accepting a government coup.

As America goes Galt and the traitors flounder, we can agree that it is interesting times that we live in. If you have not read the Art of War, now is the time.
