Study shows cash transfers from rich to poor can increase happiness of the poor [More]
So naturally, the solution for human happiness is a dependency on communists!
Just ask CBS Mornings host Tony Dokoupil!
Curious thing though– they don’t really tell us much about the qualifications of the “researchers” to fundamentally alter the governance and course of humanity.
One is this guy, who also shared his “water is wet” epiphany by concluding “Smartphone use undermines enjoyment of face-to-face social interactions,” and the other fancies herself an expert in happiness who does a mediocre job of imparting it to those taking her classes.
Reality, of course, shows us that totalitarian governments with the power to impose forced wealth transfers have historically always resulted in human misery and destitution.
As an aside, you’d think a smart guy like Jeff Bezos would realize a simple truth pointed out by John Stossel:
If the IRS grabbed 100 percent of income over $1 million, the take would be just $616 billion. That’s only a third of this year’s deficit.

Connect the Clots
At Odds with the World
An annual transfer of funds from rich to poor countries, starting at around $2 trillion by 2030 and rising thereafter, is needed for climate “justice” according to a U.N.-backed report released Tuesday. China has been specifically excluded from the demand for reparations, which includes taxes for fossil fuel companies on their global “carbon profits,” even as the Communist state’s greenhouse gas emissions now exceed the entire rest of the developed world combined.

Questioning the Narrative
Parroting the Narrative
It’s impossible not to notice, though. When certain issues come up, anybody deviating from a certain position is viciously attacked and “cancelled.” [More]
So I haven’t just been imagining stuff like “baseless” or “botched gun sting“…?

Making the Grade
Massachusetts has some of the strongest gun laws in the country and leads the nation in investing in community violence intervention strategies. [More]
I guess it all depends on the metrics:

Mixed Signals
Michigan man gets life in prison after kidnapping, sexually assaulting Lubbock teen … By law, 14-year-olds simply cannot consent to sexual contact with adults. [More]
Besides, I thought “Minor Attracted People” were another victim group discriminated against by hateful Christian Nationalists…
And what about Drag Queen Story Hour?
Besides, all the cool school boards say sexualizing children is “progressive.”
After all, aren’t puberty blockers a human right?…
Don’t you think it will be easier if we just surrender to the inevitable?

Anti-Gun Junk ‘Science’ Misleads Ignorant with Deceptive Fallacies
This is not science—this is propaganda and it’s a gross abuse of public trust by leftist quacks with a naked political agenda. [More]
A fair assessment would conclude they are deliberately committing malpractice.
We’re the Only Ones Biting Off More Than We Can Chew Enough
The Gaslighting Of The Masses
Never before have we been able to observe the application and effects of these powerful technologies in real-time on such a massive scale. [More]
I believe this is one reason why we who have been fighting the lies about the right to keep and bear arms for years, and who have seen the denial of reality and insistent substitution of lies coming from what we’ve been conditioned to accept as “authority figures” are better prepared than most to recognize when it’s being done in other areas.
And an age-old question comes to mind.

If at First You Don’t Succeed?
Figures Lie and Liars Figure
By the way, when total crimes per 1K, as opposed to homicides alone, is considered as a measure of national violence, Nationmaster.com ranks Iceland, Sweden, the U.K., New Zealand, Finland, Canada, the Netherlands, Germany, Norway, Austria, France, S. Africa, and Switzerland worse than the U.S. Ask yourself this: if America is less violent with guns than most of the civilized world without guns, then what are we debating? [More]
And if you take Democrat-controlled Bloomberg cities out of the equation, armed-to-the-teeth red demographic America is less homicidal, too…

Mansplaining Your Options, Gals
As an alternative to carrying a gun, Hemenway suggests women who feel threatened choose a different route or run during the day, in groups. If a woman feels she needs protection, “bear spray is much safer to use and just as effective as a gun would be,” he says. [More]
Sometimes, all you need to do is present… and he doesn’t seem to factor in multiple assailants.
I wonder how he’d fare…

My Friend the Witch Doctor
The speaker is Robert Englander and his credentials are impeccable … And he’s suggesting that shamanism and Western science are equally valid medical practices. [More]
As Gomez noted:
I wish he’d shake his rattles or yell a few times as Dr. Mbogo does. Makes you feel like he’s accomplishing something.

What Else are ‘They’ Lying About and Why Should We Trust Them on Anything?
In COVID hearing, #Pfizer director admits: #vaccine was never tested on preventing transmission. “Get vaccinated for others” was always a lie. The only purpose of the #COVID passport: forcing people to get vaccinated. The world needs to know. Share this video! [Watch]
So mob participants and inciters like that moronic hatemonger Howard Stern wishing the unvaccinated dead and urging hospitals not to treat them are going to apologize and beg forgiveness?
Shot to Hell
The National Guard administered the COVID-19 vaccine to multiple service members who were lined up for the influenza vaccine, including a member who objected to the COVID-19 vaccine on religious grounds, according to officials and one of the members. [More]
And the people who did it haven’t been arrested and offered reduced sentences in exchange for giving up who ordered them…?
If there are complications, all the weight of the world will be on the side that says you can’t prove it’s due to the jab.

Settled Science
An Ill Wind
Ian turned, Southwest Florida scrambled. Was there enough time to leave? Some residents said evacuation orders came too late. Gov. Ron DeSantis said forecasts left few options. [More]
What? We can’t predict the weather with certainty mere hours and days in advance, let alone years and decades…?

An Offering to the Gods
But now, some doctors are restarting donors’ hearts after a planned cardiac arrest when life-sustaining treatment is withdrawn — meaning that the cardiac arrest wasn’t necessarily irreversible — and then causing brain death so that beating hearts can be harvested. [More]
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
I wonder if this might be another indicator of why gunquacks are bent on upping risks through disarmament…
