Military lore contends that bad luck comes in “threes,” a phenomenon from World War II. If soldiers sought to light three cigarettes with a single match, by the time the third soldier extended a cigarette, the enemy had fired.

In 2021, Democrats in the House of Representatives find themselves knuckling under to three seething ‘cauldrons’ of hate, if not outright agreeing with them: Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Rashida Tlaib. These three congresswomen arrived in Washington ready to vent at the touch of a hat. Their platform, among the far Left, only grows larger as the squabble of 2020 extends into 2021.

Hateful and Vocal

Who, exactly, do Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Rashida Tlaib hate, other than Donald Trump, his family, his administration, the military, I.C.E., and law enforcement? They hate anyone and everyone who voted for Donald Trump – all 75+ million. They hate Jews, and they hate Israel in particular.

What do Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Rashida Tlaib hate? Pretty much any policy of Barack Obama that Donald Trump maintained (or improved), or decided was poorly conceived and reversed. They hated the phrase, “Make America Great Again,” from the get-go, since in their view America was never great. They hate sensible budgets, people having to pay their own way, and fundamental differences between men and women.

These three ladies are so vocal: If I were a ranking member of a congress, perhaps with a committee chairmanship, I’d be aghast. I would be irate about how much airtime they grab and how they now represent the face of the Democratic Party.

Do Democrats believe that advocating for open borders, condoning the activities of Antifa, espousing that college should be free (which, of course, means that someone else pays), absolving all student debt, claiming that Medicare should be provided for all, weakening the military, and converting to a socialist state is going to work out well?
Apparently they do.

The Evidence is Plain to See

When you stroll through a supermarket today and see the abundance of fruits and vegetables, cheeses, nuts, meats, packaged goods, frozen foods, soft drinks, beers, wines, and pharmaceuticals, etc., is there any question about the bounty bestowed upon our society from centuries of capitalism?

When you visit an auto dealership and observe the abundance of cars, when you step onto a college campus, and there are 2600 major colleges in the U.S., and see the magnificent architecture, the fountains, the walkways, the vibrancy, why would you choose to mess with an economic system that delivered this?

Contemplate our cities from coast-to-coast, the civic centers, skyscrapers, town halls, sports stadiums, ice-skating rinks, greenways, resorts, and endless highways and byways. Why would you ever advocate a risky proposition – such as socialism – which has never benefitted a single generation in a single nation?

Consider the miraculous U.S.–led breakthroughs benefitting people around the globe, from the cell phone, to the Internet, to pacemakers, to the world’s best dental care, to Lasik surgery. What would prompt you to think that a socialist society could produce innovative entrepreneurs found in every state and every county in America?

Blind to Everyday Reality

How much do you have to hate America, our way of life, and everything that we stand for, to imply that it all has to be undone? How grossly do you have to ignore that people from across the globe want to emigrate here, while virtually no one, not Barbra Streisand, not Alec Baldwin, and not the foul-mouthed Robert DeNiro, wants to leave?

How overly focused on disparities and injustices do you have to be – which occur in every nation, all the time – to say that this nation, above all others, is the most evil? Yes, unquestionably we should strive to alleviate the disparity, and eliminate the injustices. To throw out the all-time super-baby with the bath water, however, is beyond stupidity and beyond ignorance. The attempt is grounded in seething hatred.

The left has long worked to overthrow America and all that it stands for. They have been working at it since early in the 1900’s and it took up more speed in the late 60’s and early 70’s with the rise of the radical left. PolitiCrossing founder Chris Widener explains the three-pronged attack and how it is almost complete, as well as the only things we can do to save ourselves and this country we love.

CAN DECENTRALIZED FINANCE BE THE WAY TO SAVE YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY FROM MELTDOWNS AND TYRANNY?

Decentralized finance (DeFi) is built on the blockchain, which offers a wide range of financial services without the need for intermediaries such as banks or other financial institutions. DeFi has emerged as a popular alternative to traditional finance, offering a more open, transparent, and decentralized financial system. In this article, we will explore why DeFi can protect you from a coming financial meltdown and from tyrannical governments.

DeFi is built on the blockchain, which means that it is inherently decentralized. This means that there is no central authority controlling the system, and all transactions are verified and validated by a distributed network of nodes. This makes the system more resilient and less vulnerable to attack or manipulation. Unlike traditional financial systems, where central authorities have the power to manipulate the system, DeFi is designed to be transparent and immutable.

One of the main advantages of DeFi is that it offers greater financial freedom and control to users. DeFi allows users to access a wide range of financial services without the need for intermediaries. This means that users can transact directly with each other, without having to go through banks or other financial institutions. This gives users greater control over their finances and reduces the risks associated with centralized financial systems.

Another advantage of DeFi is that it is highly transparent. All transactions on the blockchain are public and can be verified by anyone. This means that there is no room for fraud or manipulation, as all transactions are visible to all participants in the network. This level of transparency is not possible in traditional financial systems, where transactions are often opaque and difficult to track.

DeFi also offers greater security to users. Transactions on the blockchain are secured using cryptography, making them virtually impossible to hack or manipulate. This means that users can trust the system, knowing that their funds are secure. Traditional financial systems, on the other hand, are often vulnerable to cyberattacks and fraud, which can result in significant financial losses.

Furthermore, DeFi is designed to be more inclusive and accessible to everyone. Unlike traditional financial systems, which often have high barriers to entry, DeFi is open to anyone with an internet connection. This means that people who are unbanked or underbanked can access financial services that were previously unavailable to them. This inclusivity is important because it helps to reduce financial inequality and promotes greater financial inclusion.

Finally, DeFi is more resilient than traditional financial systems. DeFi is built on a decentralized network of nodes, which means that there is no single point of failure. This makes the system more resilient to attacks and more resistant to financial meltdowns. In traditional financial systems, a single point of failure can have catastrophic consequences, as we saw in the 2008 financial crisis.

DeFi is a new and exciting financial system that offers a wide range of benefits over traditional finance. It is transparent, secure, accessible, and resilient, making it an attractive option for people who are looking to protect themselves from a coming financial meltdown. While DeFi is still in its early stages, it has the potential to transform the world of finance, offering a more open, transparent, and decentralized financial system for everyone.

SEVEN BENEFITS OF DECENTRALIZED FINANCE

Decentralized finance (DeFi) has emerged as a revolutionary technology that enables individuals to conduct financial transactions without the need for intermediaries such as banks or financial institutions. DeFi uses blockchain technology, which provides a transparent and secure way of conducting financial transactions. In this article, we will discuss the benefits of decentralized finance, along with a brief overview of crypto and blockchain.

Overview of Crypto and Blockchain

Crypto refers to digital currencies that use cryptography to secure financial transactions and control the creation of new units. Bitcoin, which was created in 2009, is the most well-known cryptocurrency. It is based on blockchain technology, which is a decentralized ledger that records transactions in a transparent and secure manner. Blockchain technology provides a secure and tamper-proof way of recording transactions, making it ideal for use in financial transactions.

Benefits of Decentralized Finance

Lower Transaction Costs

Decentralized finance provides a cost-effective way of conducting financial transactions. Traditional financial systems are often plagued by high transaction costs, which are passed on to customers. DeFi eliminates the need for intermediaries, which means that transaction costs are significantly lower. This makes it easier for individuals to access financial services and reduces the barriers to entry for new players in the market.

Greater Accessibility

DeFi provides greater accessibility to financial services, particularly for individuals who are unbanked or underbanked. In many parts of the world, people do not have access to traditional banking services due to various factors such as lack of documentation, poor credit history, or living in remote areas. DeFi provides a way for these individuals to access financial services using only a smartphone and an internet connection. This has the potential to increase financial inclusion and reduce poverty.

Increased Transparency

One of the main benefits of blockchain technology is its transparency. Transactions recorded on the blockchain are publicly visible, making it easier to trace the flow of funds. This provides a level of transparency that is not possible with traditional financial systems. Decentralized finance leverages this transparency to provide greater accountability and reduce the risk of fraud. This makes DeFi a more secure and trustworthy way of conducting financial transactions.

More Control Over Personal Data

Traditional financial systems often require individuals to provide personal data such as name, address, and social security number. This data is stored by banks and financial institutions, making it vulnerable to hacks and breaches. DeFi provides individuals with more control over their personal data by using self-sovereign identity solutions. These solutions enable individuals to control their own data and share it only with the parties they trust.

Greater Flexibility

Decentralized finance provides greater flexibility in terms of financial products and services. Traditional financial systems are often rigid, with limited options for customers. DeFi provides a range of financial products and services, including loans, savings accounts, insurance, and investment products. This gives individuals greater flexibility to choose the financial products and services that meet their specific needs.

Faster Settlement Times

Blockchain technology enables faster settlement times for financial transactions. Traditional financial systems often require several intermediaries to process transactions, which can take several days. With DeFi, transactions are processed directly on the blockchain, which means that settlement times can be as fast as a few seconds. This provides greater convenience for customers and reduces the risk of errors and delays.

Reduced Counterparty Risk

Traditional financial systems often involve counterparty risk, which is the risk that one party will fail to fulfill its obligations in a financial transaction. DeFi eliminates counterparty risk by using smart contracts, which are self-executing contracts that automatically execute when certain conditions are met. This provides greater security and reduces the risk of fraud and default.

Conclusion

Decentralized finance is a revolutionary technology that has the potential to transform the financial industry. By eliminating intermediaries, increasing accessibility, increasing transparency, providing more control over personal data, offering greater flexibility, enabling faster settlement times, and reducing counterparty risk, DeFi provides numerous benefits that traditional financial systems cannot match. As DeFi continues to evolve, it has the potential to create a more equitable and inclusive financial system that benefits individuals and communities around the world.
