Yesterday we were busy as always. Ty worked and Jag is still in California. I went and had dinner with Marty at a restaurant he’s involved with that his group is tearing down sometime and remodeling.
Yesterday the lefts favorite communist, Kamala, proposed price fixes on food and other goods! Every economist and news outlet including those like CNN are blasting this as socialism. Can you imagine the govt. in Washington D.C. telling a farmer in Nebraska how much he can sell his beef or eggs for? This will lead to mass shortages, long lines and another depression the likes of which we haven’t seen since 1929. I really can’t believe she’d even suggest this. Problem is most people get their news in six second snippets off of Tic Tok and all they hear is that large corporations are gouging you. Nothing could be further than the truth. Grocery stores operate on an average profit margin of 1.9%. Prices are high from the endless spending by the Ferdal Govt. That’s a fact. How did that Inflation Reduction Act work out for you? Oh wait, it had nothing to do with inflation, they just named it that so it sounded good to voters. It was really their progressive green new deal which did things like spent $8 billion dollars on 7, yes 7, new EV chargers. These people have to be stopped or the Country as we know it is doomed. God help the U.S.A.
Kamala says she’ll tackle inflation and all these issues on Day One of her presidency. Hmm, I thought Day One was 3 1/2 years ago? Ask yourself why she doesn’t just fix things now? She’s still in office right?
Nice sunset the other day. I have some beef coming from a grass-fed rancher in Texas. We have about half a dozen chuck roasts and 10 pounds of stew meat inbound for the freezer. I need to order up some more of those pot pies. Anyone wanting great pot pies, made with all natural ingredients needs to check out Waltzing Kangaroo in Ft. Collins. They’re really good and you can keep them in the freezer for two years! Great comfort food.
Sunny and nice out this morning. Mid 80’s or so up here. I stopped at my neighbor Brian’s yesterday to try out some new binoculars he just bought. He’s putting his house on the market for $4,350.000 and had an offer of $4 million the first day he put it on the market. He passed as his new house in Ft. Collins won’t be ready for a year. Good to know though that the neighborhood prices are still going up. We should be worth somewhere around $3.4 or $3.5 million, if we sell. If it goes much higher, we might need to move as you just can’t leave that kind of money on the table. Interesting times.
That’s it, enjoy your Saturday. Be well, stay safe and God Bless.
