We answer to a higher power

...implied the Polish pastor of a church in Canada.  The occasion was Easter weekend, and the brave pastor's church was invaded by Health Nazis.  This is a cheering story of resistance to the Covid-enforcers, who have deemed themselves guardians of "public health" all over the world.  I applaud the courage of Pastor Artur Pawlowski.  Those …

A quick note to Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders (who seem to be ignorant of basic economics)

Warren and Sanders are picking a big fight with Amazon.com over its supposed low level of income tax payments to their government.  The two senators are fighting, along with the majority of their Leftist colleagues, to raise the tax rate on big companies, so they will "pay their fair share" into government coffers.
