Bull Market Dreaming

If Balogun scores tomorrow he could legitimately flip the midterms for Trump.

I prayed to George Washington last night and this is what he told me.

I wasn't the first to put Bitcoin on a wine label, but I was the first to make the wine that went inside.

There's no government oversight on what's added to your wine, but I still don't think more oversight is the fix.

Government involvement causes more problems than it solves. In this case, it's the source of the problem.

So if not having ingredients labeled on your wine is a symptom, what is the root problem?

Your lack of connection to the person who produces what you eat and drink.

This traces back to 1970s ag policy. "Get big or get out" pushed farms across the country from growing multiple crops to just one.

Decades of policy favoring globalism over local economies pushed farmers to stop growing food for their community and start producing global commodities. Your fruit and veggies aren't from Farmer Bill anymore, they're from Mexico or New Zealand. Most people in this country have no idea where their food actually comes from.

The solution for individuals is more radical responsibility and less government reliance. Connection to the people who make your food and your local economy makes a bigger difference than you'd think. This doesn't fix the larger problem any time soon, but what else can you do?

I'm not interested in Band-Aid solutions, and I don't ask the government that caused this problem to go fix the next one.

You can just take responsibility for yourself.

Meet your farmers.

Talladega Nights is the most American movie you could possibly watch tonight.
