Seven days until #Brexit

Image
It is the final week of the United Kingdom in the European Union. The UK was one of the members of the original European Economic Community in 1973, which then became the European Union twenty years later. The UK has spent a total of 46 years being in the EEC and the EU. With the burdensome EU/Brussels regulations adversely affecting the British economy, it is finally time for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland to leave the European Union at 11 PM UK time on Friday, March 29, 2019. With Britain's withdrawal of the European Union this coming Friday, it will soon stop being subject to laws also from Brussels (the European Union). The seventeen million British people who voted to leave the European Union have promised to keep their Euroscepticism. Meanwhile, globalist fake news sites such as Sky News continue to post leftist hysteria about the impacts of the United Kingdom leaving the European Union. Because Leave means Leave. One example of a Sky News sto

Four days without electricity in Venezuela #SinLuz #SocialismKills

Image
Since Thursday afternoon (four days ago at time of publication), Venezuela has been facing a power outage. So far, it has killed 19 hospital patients (modern hospitals rely on electricity for patients to survive for longer). Thus, the situation in hospitals in Venezuela looks more like the nineteenth century, when hospital patients were unlikely to survive a visit. In the early morning hours, there was an explosion of a transformer in Caracas, as a result of lack of government care and maintenance. If it were privately owned, they would fix it quickly. A nationalized industry means that the government decides on who will receive the benefits instead of the private owners. Nationalizing industries is for losers. For example, PDVSA is nationalized, but it is in big trouble. The only way to save PDVSA is to privatize  it. Big government bureaucrats rely on corruption rather than efficiency. State-run industries are too inefficient, let alone government control of the private sector.

Seventy-two hours without electricity across Venezuela #SinLuz

It continues from the previous post  here . 72 hrs sin servicio eléctrico en gran parte de Venezuela! Cómo te sientes @NicolasMaduro luego de batir récord? Vencedor? Vas a responderle y pagarle a los venezolanos todo el daño que la corrupción y la incapacidad de tú régimen les ha hecho? La gente quiere SOLUCIONES YA! — Henrique Capriles R. (@hcapriles) March 10, 2019 It has been 72 hours without electric service in much of Venezuela! How do you feel @NicolasMaduro after you beat the record? Winner? Are you going to answer and pay the Venezuelan people all the damage that the corruption and the inability of your regime has done to them? People want solutions now! It has been three days since Venezuela has been without electricity service. Protests are taking place somewhere, with lootings and burning of objects. Since the blackout began, fifteen dialysis patients died. Modern hospitals rely on electricity so that the patients can survive for longer. Hospitals are closer t

Another day without electricity in Venezuela #SinLuz

The electricity service has been out in Venezuela since 48 hours ago, and it has not been fully restored to everyone. Electricity was briefly restored, until a new power outage occurred. The western states are still without power for 48 consecutive hours. This is a continuation of my previous post . The Venezuelan government (Maduro) continues to spread conspiracy theories about why the power outage occurred. They claimed that it was a sabotage made by the American government. Not so. A hydroelectric dam that provided electricity to the majority of Venezuela failed, leaving over 30 million citizens without electricity. This is why government control of any sector (it is socialism) fails all the time! The socialist PSUV has been ruling Venezuela for over a decade. Meanwhile, the opposition still could not think of a platform after a rally in Caracas earlier today. Big government is all about control of the people through regulations, stiff taxes, gun control, wealth control, and

24 hours without electricity service in Venezuela #SinLuz

Venezuelans have been facing a power outage nationwide for 24 consecutive hours. Thanks, Maduro for your socialist policies that ruined the nation and the economy. Nationalization (government takeover) of the private sector is for losers. With every part of the industry nationalized, they are falling apart because people have no choice. You can have a big government or personal freedom, but NOT both at the same time; they are mutually exclusive. ALERT: Reports of a complete power outage all across #Venezuela at this moment. 18 of 23 states & the capital district are currently facing complete blackouts. Main airport also without power & backup generators have failed. #MaduroRegime is a complete disaster. — Marco Rubio (@marcorubio) March 7, 2019 Here are some photos of Caracas without power (to see buildings a camera with a very wide aperture is needed)     Because of the power outage, people could not go to work, and children were unable to go to school.

Price tag of the Green New Deal and refuting Bernie Sanders once more

Bezos, so much for the Big Apple. According to a study published by the conservative American Action Forum (AAF), the cost of the Green New Deal over a decade could be up to $93 trillion (over $625,000 per household), with a T. That is equal to 1.1 years of the world's economic output (GDP). The Green New Deal will be very expensive – our initial estimates are summarized below - @DJHEakin . https://t.co/O8KgIzfy5q pic.twitter.com/2iXzpCRFH9 — American Action Forum (@AAF) February 25, 2019 Yes, seriously. It requires extreme taxation, strict environmental regulation, plus a single-payer health plan. Progressives continue to push this impractical plan, which will trick people into knowing that it will work for everyone. The Green New Deal will degrade the quality of life of everyone living in America with living conditions similar to a third-world nation today, while doing ultimately nothing to solve the supposed "climate crisis".

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e

Image
This is my wish for Easter 2019, the Galaxy Tab S5e, serving to replace my over two-and-a-half year old Galaxy Tab S2 (2016). I am going to like this! I planned to buy the Galaxy Tab S4 but was too expensive. Therefore, I went for the Galaxy Tab S5e instead, one of the mobile devices Samsung announced a week ago, along with the Galaxy S10, the Galaxy S10e, the Galaxy S10+, and the Galaxy Fold, a new foldable phone. I am going to have a great time with using the Galaxy Tab S5e, as the camera has flash (unlike the Tab S2), is HDR enabled, and can record 4K video at 30 frames per second. Selected specifications 10.5-inch display, Super AMOLED WQXGA 2560×1600 @ 288 ppi Snapdragon 670 chipset and octa-core CPU for good performance + fast charge 4 or 6 GB LPDDR4X memory and 64 or 128 GB internal storage, expandable via MicroSD Android 9 (Pie) OS with One UI Samsung Knox for protection Lightweight, weighing only 14.1 ounces Coming April 4, starting at US$399.99 before taxes.
