The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is using coffee, softball and speed dating to convert the curious and win new members

No surprise! DSA has to compensate with feel good for an offensive agenda!

When will the spook of DSA be over?

"The Democratic Socialists of America have an endless buffet of social events to attract new members and more closely bind existing ones to the movement. Across the country, fast-growing chapters host barbecues, beach days, running clubs, happy hours, karaoke and even “Socialist Speed Dating.” The goal is to turn the “DSA-curious” into active members."

EU actions against food and textile waste. Really!

More signs that the EU is morphing into a top down socialist dictatorship! Remindful of Hayek's famous "The Road to Serfdom"! Terrible!

Apparently, there is a new EU law requiring private households to cut food waste by 30% until 2030! A leading German newspaper reports about it as if it was some kind of salvation (see German link below)! Can you believe it!

Will the EU citizens finally stand up for more freedom!

"
  • 2030 targets to reduce food waste
  • Producers to cover costs of collecting, sorting and recycling waste textiles
  • Each European generates 132 kg of food waste and 12 kg of clothing and footwear waste per year
...
On Tuesday, Parliament gave its final green light to new measures to prevent and reduce waste from food and textiles across the EU.

Cutting down food waste

The updated legislation will introduce binding food waste reduction targets, to be met at national level by 31 December 2030: 10% from food processing and manufacturing and 30% per capita from retail, restaurants, food services and households. These targets will be calculated in comparison to the amount generated as an annual average between 2021 and 2023."

EU-Gesetz gegen Verschwendung: Auf den Teller statt in den Mülleimer "Privathaushalte sollen die Menge der ­Lebensmittelabfälle bis 2030 um 30 Prozent verringern. So sieht es ein neues EU-Gesetz vor. Auch für Alttextilien gibt es neue Vorgaben."

Mindestlohn für Azubis beschlossen or socialism in Germany

The vicious spiral of government intervention as evidenced in Germany. Germany, since World War II, did not have a government mandated minimum wage until 2015 thanks to socialist Chancellor Merkel. Now, Germany passed a law that would even apply minimum wages to the famous apprentices of the German economy.

Mindestlohn für Azubis beschlossen: Auszubildende sollen künftig im ersten Lehrjahr in Deutschland mindestens 515 Euro im Monat erhalten.

Here is recommendable critique of this socialist nonsense!

The Squad Like Puppets On A String

Posted: 7/17/2019  Revised: 8/2/2019

I am in awe about President Trump’s brilliant maneuver to call out the Squad. He has them dangling like puppets on a string. These four young ladies with apparently little life experience, oversized ideological biases and a neck for narcissistic showmanship.  

Pied Piper of Hamlin could not have done a better job! These four female U.S. Representatives were even so foolish to give a joint press conference in response! Human folly triumphed (no pun intended, seriously)!

Best of all, the Dimocratic Party is in serious disarray and has so far no idea or clue how to respond or counter these loudmouth democratic socialists within their ranks!

All the Dimocratic Party has to do is to soundly and credibly reject and denounce any democratic socialism and antisemitism!
