It's official! Not only is the Corona Virus a pandemic but a national emergency! Everybody needs to calm down a little bit and stop buying toilet paper!

If you read any headlines today or tuned into any of the talking heads, you'd think the end of the world has finally arrived. Stock Market Crash! Bond bubble burst! Oil plunging! Corona Virus spreading like wild fire. Cases skyrocket! Deaths soar! And while things do look dire, betting on the end of the world is futile. In today's episode, I go over some of the political landscape after we lost our favorite native american, the effects of the Corona Virus on the markets and overall economy, and ponder some things we can do to protect ourselves from the coming economic collapse. 

The DNC's diabolical plan to prop up Sleepy Joe Biden worked like a charm. So it looks like I was wrong about him having no chance. What i'm not wrong about, is that regardless of this election, socialism will always fail on its own. Here's why. 

The only thing more obvious than the DNC attempting to steal the nomination from Bernie Sanders should be the fact that we don't really get to choose who our presidential candidates will be. 

No, that's not a typo. I've just been watching a lot of Soprano's lately and that's how they say it...California thinks we need occupational licensing and training courses for porn stars and web cam girls. I beg to differ. But this legislation isn't just good for a laugh. It's the perfect teachable moment for why we don't need any licenses at all!

Last night's debate just goes to show you how little faith we should have in the gov't to solve our problems. I give some thoughts on everyone's performance, the gov't approach to the corona virus problem, and their treatment of Roger Stone. Long story short, be careful how much power you turn over to these maniacs. 

Mike Bloomberg was the whipping boy of the democratic presidential candidates in his first debate performance. The only thing he was able to accomplish was to get people to actually feel sorry for a billionaire. These days that is no small feat. What good is all that money if you don't have your dignity in the morning.?

AOC seems to think that because it's physically impossible to pull yourself up by your bootstraps that it's also metaphorically impossible. Well, we can add this to the long list of things that she's wrong about. But it's worse than that. She's not just wrong. She damaging your mind. This is the episode everybody needs to hear.
