According to some of the American sites that I read, the USA is heading for a civil war, some commentators think that the nation may implode.
Recently I came across the work of an American who calls himself Charlie Bo, he appears to be a photo journalist, he is recording the state of the nation by driving around American cities armed only with a video camera, and posting videos on YouTube. I have watched some of them, and am horrified at how so many cities have become like third world slums. I think there are various causes, such as the shutting down of industries such as steelworks, car factories etc, but also in some of the cities, particularly those run by the Democrats, there is anarchy, the police have given up trying to maintain any sort of order.
Watch the videos, and weep for what America has become.

Meat prices. Yesterday My local butcher was selling scotch fillet for $68.15 per kilo. That was outrageous….and extremely delicious. I was all over that steak like Richard Marles over Beijing instructions.
The BBC’s Hard Talk host exceeded his usual leftoid partisanship in the latest program. He sounded as if he’s fully signed on with the Demonrats like Schumer, Nadler, Pelosi and Shiff. The BBC never has a problem with anything the current regime does. The Republican candidate (an escapee from the USSR) was exercised to rebut his relentless attacks, however she spoke well and at full speed.
In other “coverage”, I noted that the beeb is careful now to say that the Al Jazeera reporter lady was shot, but avoiding saying it was the Israelis what done it. Not so careful with their reporting that Israeli police laid into mourners with their batons!
Perhaps Cassie has some info on this.

Fundamentally the direct result of low prices for beef for many years when compared to the likes of lamb and the cheap abundance of chicken.
Add on the far reduced kill capacity caused by government and the need for processors to satisfy existing contract customers overseas you get to $68.18.
The only way to pick up supply is another feedlot expansion as was the case decades ago and the price incentive for farmers to supply backgrounder cattle.
This won’t happen in the short term as booming grain prices make the margins for feedlots razor thin and the current unpredictable kill capacity leads to carrying stock past their weight target.

That excremental performance would draw a level of understanding – if not empathy – if its author, Ms Sanni Lark was not two things:
1. Self-described as a ‘childless misandrist’; and
2. With the appearance of one of those googley-eyed wobbly things once seen on dashboards. Eyes the size of golf balls peering out behind a wad of lank black hair reminiscent of something from the Addams Family.
I doubt very much she’s been asked to drop pups for all sorts of blokes ‘countless times’, and her daddy issues are extremely apparent. Clearly, Ms Lark is one of those horror shows that lurk in pubs on the mid-late shifts, hoping to snare an unwary tipsy fellow and get him out and in the cot before the ugly lights come on.

You decide. In the US the vast majority of state and company vax mandates ground to a halt due to the huge number of non complying workers and massive consumer backlash.
In Australia anyone resisting was steamrolled in short order because so many scared sheep had climbed over each other to get a hit of experimental therapy that doesn’t work.

There are any number of family and hobby farmers who will sell you a whole/half/quarter beast butchered to your requirements for a reasonable price. Check out the internet.
You just have to learn how to deal with the less common cuts. Make sure you ask for the heart, liver, kidneys, sweetbread…personally, I loath tripe (though my dad would kill for it-go figure)…normally there’s no extra charge for them or for boxes of bones for the dog or for making stock.
The only issue is that beef ain’t beef (in the sense that sugar is sugar)…so we grow our own. I, eg, have a small herd of largely bos indicus cows (basically Santa Gertrudis) which I cover with a Hereford…then I leave the calves with their mothers for 9 months and kill them as “vealers”. The result is great taste (Santas taste great but can be tough) but cut like butter because they’re young and still drinking milk. Even cuts like Blade roast as tasty and tender as you could wish. A real treat is to casserole the cheeks with slices of heart and liver (after a good brine soak) fresh from the kill while the carcass is hanging in the coolroom. The rest of the heart and liver I normally slice, vacuum pack and freeze…then add a pack of each to a celebratory fry up from time to time.
While not truely veal as such, the meat will substitute very well into most veal recipes too.
Now that, has made me hungry…just as well that I got a pack of rump steaks out of the freezer Thursday…
His chef wife swore by them, more flavour.
Swearing adds flavour.

With regards to infant formula in the US.
The biggest buyer of infant formula in the U.S. is WIC, or the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children, which is run by the Department of Agriculture. Roughly half of women get formula from WIC. Rather than food stamps, which is a set amount of cash that can be used for most products, most states only allow women to buy formula from one company, though each company offers a bunch of different brands.
To save money, the government requires states to hold auctions to get the lowest price for formula. The problem is, state agencies use a complex rebating system to give the contract for the entire state to one manufacturer, and that contract can only be changed once every four years. Here’s the USDA explaining the program.
Typically, WIC State agencies obtain substantial discounts in the form of rebates from infant formula manufacturers for each can of formula purchased through the program. In exchange for rebates, a manufacturer is given the exclusive right to provide its product to WIC participants in the State. These sole-source contracts are awarded on the basis of competitive bids. The brand of formula provided by WIC varies by State depending on which manufacturer holds the contract for that State.
What could possiblay go wrong.

Silly buggers will fly around in circles begging for it. It takes a strong man to resist.
It looks like the systemic issues with infant formula is similar to PBM’s being the single biggest issue when it comes to insulin pricing.
Trump used an executive order to remove that as a factor & prices plummeted.
On his first day, Biden revoked that executive order that neutered PBMs.
Insulin prices went back up & now Biden is complaining about it, even though he was the biggest reason for the rise since the start of 2021.

Russia has recently been exposed as funding Green extremist groups in Europe. For years the Soviet Union funded far-left groups in Western Europe….such as anti-nuclear protest movements. I wouldn’t be surprised by anything but as to who’s funding the Teals? Well I don’t think it’s that exotic. The bulk of Allegra’s funds are coming from Svengali Simon and his dosh comes from a combo of inheritance and investments in ruinables….which are being subsidised by the likes of you and me.
And Bern’s right, Allegra is getting lotsa dosh from rich, bored entitled and very selfish Wentworth wives.

From the people I have seen volunteering for Spender, I would call it one of the most hypocritical groups I’ve seen.

Why continue to associate with such people after 20+ years?
So what you’re saying is that the LDP is skint. Well, if they’re not prepared to back their own party, why should I?
“Frydenberg has to pay kids to wear his sandwich boards, if the LDP can’t pony up the caaaaash then they’re not going to get a lot of support.”

Neither are EV.
But she’s all in on climate change.
My mistake; I thought it was an old girls thing.
My response is still the same though.
I don’t know whether others saw Chris Kenny’s interview with Princess Allegra yesterday? He had to track her down because she’s being very selective about what media she speaks to. So much for transparency. Anyway, I just laughed listening to her. Princess Allegra speaks Ascham speak, a dialect I know well, she’s gushing and effusive and completely lacking in any substance whatsoever. Princess Allegra lives on another planet, of designer clothes, of big houses, of swish cars, of overseas trips, of ski trips, of expensive restaurants, she doesn’t give a toss about people living west of Darlinghurst. She’s completely unfazed by such notions as people struggling to pay their power bills. She’s the ultimate eastern suburbs private school bimbo.
It actually causes angst on the street because it’s 2P unless you have permit.
And you can’t get a permit if you have a double garage.
But somehow the that family got a permit.

To be fair to m0nty, communism has never produced any outcome that’s within a trillion light years of resembling a “profit”.
It’s just that he’s confused “non-profit” with “hopelessly unprofitable”.

Reduce business tax but raise the GST.
Cut carbon emissions but raise immigration numbers.
Somehow the Commonwealth should address state issues like stamp duty and payroll tax.
I’m not sure there’s a coherent political philosophy there.

Michael Saylor interview with Reason. He’s incredibly bright and you can tell just by listening to him.
But I think he’s mistaken about Bitcoin. His reasoning though is wonderful.

They’re a cross between sulphur crested cockatoos for their squawkiness and spitefulness when not fed right, gang gang cockatoos for their idiot looking heads and black cockatoos for their massive beaks and ability to crack nuts.
Unfortunately no magpie genes with their strong sense of maternity and offspring protection.
Mate of mine in HK was always a bit of a lefty.
But over the past couple of years he & his wife (local bird) have withdrawn from everything that could be viewed as political.
They did it to protect their ample asset base.
But he’s loving life even during all the HK COVID shit.
He reckons until you walk away, you don’t realise how much of your life you waste on this fakery.
AGW has become an ersatz religion for some.
Most of Australia outside the inner city enclaves would be much like the Aussie expat in Texas reports.
You’re an idiot.
“I’m not sure there’s a coherent political philosophy there.”
There isn’t. As for “increasing immigration”, okiedokes, let’s house them in Wentworth. I really think that it’s time that hypocrites like Spender and co had their faces rubbed in the shit they espouse.

RED ALERT President Xi ‘suffering from deadly brain aneurysm’ as he faces coup over devastating Covid lockdowns, reports claim
Soon to be caused by a bullet in the back of his head?
I’m not sure there’s a coherent political philosophy there.
She’s the billionaire’s candidate.
That’s the philosophy.
monty can’t understand
Pretty well every topic covered.
On their ABCcess last night/ this morning its been a cavalcade of festering assholes.
Cheryl Kernot, Alegedy Bigspender, etc, but the winner of the ‘Sod everyone else, my pet pony gets fed first” was some bint from a forgettably named womens peak body “explaining” that covid had proved all childcare should be provided free, all the time, to unleash 500,000 ladies onto the jobs market.
And it was all a boon to the economy, the lion laid down with the lamb, milk and honey, ambrosia and unicorns.
Missing: Any mention of costs….
Just idiotic shit served up to perpetuate the poor little woman myth the ABCcess loves to push.
Bern, a friend of mine is on some eastern suburbs facebook page. She’s complained to me about the politicisation of the page and how people are spruking for Princess Allegra. She told me the other day that the moderator came on and warned people not to talk about politics.
But you see, the politicisation of everything is the left’s modus operandi. It’s been deliberate. It’s designed to silence people or just wilt them into accepting the left’s way.
Simon Holmes a Court’s final words will be:
“Rosebud…”
If you want to rip up 90mins of your life, Netflix has Ice Road, another Liam Neeson movie.
Seriously, a pile of steaming turd.
St Ruth earlier:-
I assume there has been a pick up in demand for Meatloaf tribute acts since he passed on.
4 Corners might do an expose on Holmes a Court’s influence on this election when the dust settles.
Cough.
It’s designed to silence people or just wilt them into accepting the left’s way.
It’s the silencing part which is insidious.
The professional management class is choking everything.
Having an ample asset base in HK (if that is where it is) and not being interested in politics sounds like a potential recipe for trouble down the track.
That’s a good alternative and it works for some. Enjoy your family, the surplus you’ve made and all is well.
Wifey lives in that zone. I don’t mean the surplus aspect. She’s mostly disinterested in politics and thinks it’s a total crock as there are more important things to do with your life. She hates seeing me “blogging”. 🙂
HQ in Doonside eh, LOL bet no players live within a bulls roar of that place and the club is filled with Asians gambling on the pokies with no idea of the sport it supports. Doonside however used to have a great flat chicken take away across from the railway run by Cambodians though…
The only reason they are located in Doonside/Rooty Hill is because the land was a freebie/sweetheart deal from gummint when the AFL 1st started waffling about a 2nd Sydney team .. it’s only HQ & training the Giants don’t play any home competition games anywhere outside inner Sydney ..
Bear, if you want the next to zero tax rate, the rules of the game are to keep your mouth shut & you keep your assets.
They live a spectacular life.
What benefit did the tax payer derive from this deal?

[Per JC] It means that any surplus created (if there is one) is not distributed but kept in-house and described on the accounts as an operating surplus.
Pure communism, comrade!
Come on m0nty. On your definition, Geelong Grammar, Melbourne Grammar and all the rest of the APS schools are communist.
Your choice are:
(a) double down and accuse all the APS schools of being communist;
(b) admit that you’ve beclowned yourself;
(c ) gutless out from responding, slinking off for some comfort masturbation, thus revealing yourself to be a fat imbecilic dishonest sack of shit.
Then go live in Portugal -virtually tax free on earnings. Those rat fuckers won’t touch your nest egg at least for the next 30 years.
Italy has a ~around €100,000 taxable income ceiling and then anything else is tax free. I know a few people who live in Tuscany.
Anyway, off to buy some organic fruit & veg.
No doubt I’ll be running the gauntlet of the Ms Spender army where I am going.
They get you when waiting for your organic coffee.
There should be a law you can not campaign where people a lining up to order & waiting around to pick up your caffeine delivery device.
“I don’t know who you are. I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for entertainment, I can tell you I don’t have motivation. But what I do have are a very particular set of looks, looks I have acquired over a very long career, looks that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let 90 minutes go now, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you. I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will act for you, I will entertain you, and I will kill you.”
ftb – that works well up until regime change.

Seems to work for the GREENS everytime .. LOL!

In HK?
It already has.
Worst comes to worst, they leave Hong Kong & live an ok life off a substantial asset base (but substantially smaller) outside of HK.
This might be ok.
Shades of “let the right one in”. (full movie here)

The ACLU now supports Project Veritas.
6 L GTR by the Chats is a banger.
They’re the new ruling class, as foreseen by James Burnham in The Managerial Revolution and The Machiavellians.
Cheaper childcare and increased wages are of course contradictory but the Libs are too far left to see it, let alone call it out. Although it’s an easy test of economic literacy. Understanding supply and demand is like knowing not to hold a power drill by the drill bit.
Farmer Gez, we have an inland Teal here in Indi, but she came before the current crop and is orange. For someone who labels herself as an ‘Independent’ she is amazingly well funded and organised. Her signs are everywhere and I mean everywhere, never seen so many signs for a candidate and spread all over the electorate. She also has a huge number of ‘volunteers’, maybe they really are unpaid volunteers who believe in her but the sheer numbers of them is astounding. She’s a Green/Labor/ Climate Change Loony who also seems to have a lot of farmer and business support. I don’t get it.
Indi is a traditional safe Lib/Nat seat that the utterly useless Sophie Mirrabella lost in 2014 and since then the Libs have struggled and never got up.
I saw an example of Randy’s (Allegra) army at the booth yesterday. A grey old skinny hag trying to stuff a how to vote card in my hand. I buzzed her off.
Funny, there were a gaggle of party reps trying to hand me a card – all close to together. I asked for the LDP person but was told s/he wasn’t around. A UAP dude gave me the LDP’s how-to as she must have been covering for the person. It looked complicated and wondered aloud how to fill it in so the Lib kid helped me, suggesting how to place the libs second.
Allegra is an allergy pill? How appropriate.
Pure communism, comrade!
In 2018, Victorian Ombudsman Deborah Glass found that Labor had misused $388,000 of public money through the red shirts arrangement, which saw campaign organisers employed as electorate officers.
Unlike Father ted the excuse ‘the money was just resting in my account” satisfied the intrepid, omnicorruptable Vicpol….
Presenting the most pathetic scene in an already brimming with pathos election…
Federal MP Rebekha Sharkie has threatened the Australian Christian Lobby with legal action after the group distributed flyers featuring her driving a wrecking ball through religious schools.
Sharkie has claimed the ACL breached copyright laws by using a photo of her face without her permission in what she called an “unfair” attack over her vote against the Coalition’s religious discrimination bill in February.
On Thursday, Sharkie said she would not allow the organisation to “use my likeness to denigrate the LGBTIQ+ community, people fleeing domestic violence, going through divorce or seeking IVF treatment.”
…
“The ACL has not paid for use of the photo nor asked permission for use of this photo,” Sharkie’s office said in a statement.
Sharkie has asked the ACL to “discontinue infringing her copyright” and “send a written apology to all households that received a leaflet”. She also “reserved her right to demand royalties for the previous infringements”.
Mate of mine had two teenage daughters, who thought socialism and the sharing of wealth would be “so cool.’ Their school arranged for them to spend a school holidays working in a orphanage in Cambodia….. they were somewhere to the Right of Attila the Hun after that….
A communist Pope is the ultimate example of just how far the march through the institutions has come. A disaster.
Struth.
You see horseface in NZ has caught the couf?

There was a viscous rumour, in Perth, that it was the news that there was to be an expose of his father’s business dealings, that triggered Papa’s heart attack…
Cheaper childcare
Humans have been taking care of each others’ kids since the dawn of time. Get the State involved, and presto!, bum-wiping and story time become insanely expensive.
Of course, if you cut taxes, one partner can afford to stay home and look after the nippers, his or hers and the neighbours too, should need warrant.
You’re just aware of this now, yeah? Cobb&Co coach must have just reached Northern Queerskand. You redneck.

That’s the gregarious Chestnut Teal.
Seen almost exclusively at ABC swamps and popular with female twitchers who find the colouring and odd habits engaging.
