This is the best analogy yet with a solution for the mess that the UK is now in economically.
I bought a bird feeder. I hung it in my back garden and filled it with seed.
Within a week we had lots of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food.
But then the birds started… Building nests in the shed, in the eaves,in the fences and in my garden bushes.
Then came the shit. It was everywhere,on the patio,on the chairs,the table,windows..everywhere!
Then some of the birds turned mean. They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket.
And others birds were boisterous and loud. They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night And demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.
After a while,I couldn't even sit in my own back garden anymore. So I took down the Bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the garden.
Soon,the back yard was like It used to be ..... Quiet,serene.... And no one demanding their rights to a free meal.
Now let's see......
Our government gives out Free food,subsidised housing,free medical care and free education, and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.
Then the illegal’s came by the hundreds of thousands. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services,small apartments are housing 5 families,you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor,your child's second grade class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn't speak English.
Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box,I have to
press one to hear my bank talk to me in English,and people waving flags other than ”ours” are squawking and screaming in the streets,demanding more rights and free liberties.
Just my opinion,but maybe it's time for the government to take down the bird feeder.
@Pat_Boone Great piece! It was wonderful to see the joy in your face as you watched it. I'll do the math - it was 68 years ago!!! Outrageous. Do you remember rehearsing and performing that song with Andy Williams? More, please.
Scott Adams was a great admirer of @elonmusk. He's the one person Scott asked me to contact for the biography for whom I have no contact information.
So... Mr. Musk, if you're able to see this, kindly reach out?
Many thanks.
I just told Kelly Hogan something that shocked her.
After 10 years running assisted living homes, I've learned the industry is completely backwards.
Here are the 8 things I shared with her:
1) Expensive care homes don't focus on your loved one’s recovery
The Time to Pray is NOW
The rededication of America shall bring forth a moment where Satan attempts to stand up against leadership of your nation, a temptation. Pray they do not indulge in such and recognize the trap, for that trap will bring with it recession and woe. Pray, intercede, that the temptation, the plot is exposed, and those with eyes to see sound the alarm, and the devourer is caught and forced to depart for a time. For he brings with him great crimes that will destroy elections, shift the balance of powers, and usher in the locusts, says the Lord. Pray, pray, people of God who are in covenant. The rededication of your nation is to reinforce the legal grounds, so when the enemy brings in such offers, it is revoked before the nation.

🚨 WOW! Dr. ALVEDA KING just said it PERFECTLY on Capitol Hill
"I still have a dream. I dream that one day we will move beyond black power and white power and embrace GOD'S power and human dignity!"
"I reject the notion that Americans who hold traditional Christian beliefs should be treated as THREATS or TERRORISTS simply because we disagree with a prevailing political thought!" 🙏🏻
"I dream that Americans will one day see each other, not as enemies, but as neighbors. I dream that we will hear each other, see each other, and recognize that every human life has value from the womb to the tomb and beyond."
"We are as scripture teaches, one blood, one human race. And if we remember that truth, we can build a future worthy of the sacrifices made by those who came before us."
"We must speak out for truth and against the forces that would manufacture hate, fear, division, and violence simply to line their pockets and further their political ambitions."
"God bless America, God bless you!"

At a moment of maximum danger, one sub-cabinet official is quietly disabling one of the President’s most powerful constitutional tools — his special envoys @DanScavino
Mark Warner kept the Russia Hoax on life support for years.
Now he's blocking Bill Pulte — the one man with the access to expose exactly what he did.
@BarbaraMBoyd breaks down why Warner and Fitzpatrick are panicking. 👇
James Stockdale spent seven and a half years in the Hanoi Hilton. He was tortured fifteen times. He disfigured his own face with a razor so the North Vietnamese could not use him for propaganda.
He built a tap code that turned solitary confinement into a network. Prisoners who could not see each other kept their sanity through the walls.
Stockdale was a Navy commander when captured. He became the highest-ranking American prisoner of war in Vietnam. That rank made him a target.
The North Vietnamese wanted him to sign confessions. They wanted propaganda broadcasts. They wanted him on camera endorsing statements against the American war effort. Stockdale refused every request.
The refusal cost him. He endured physical coercion fifteen times. Rope bindings, beatings, and painful positions left permanent damage to his legs. He spent four years in solitary confinement. Two years were in leg irons.
When guards said he would be paraded before journalists, he went to his cell. He used a razor to slash his scalp. He beat his face with a wooden stool. Swelling and bruising made him unfilmable. The guards found him bloodied and abandoned the plan.
On another occasion, when guards threatened to harm other prisoners if he did not comply, he broke a window and cut his wrists. It was not surrender. It was a signal he would rather die than comply. The guards treated him and reduced their demands.
Stockdale’s greatest achievement was building a community inside the prison. He developed a tap code using a five-by-five grid of the alphabet. Each letter corresponded to its row and column, tapped in two sequences.
Messages traveled through walls, under doors, and between buildings. Prisoners who could not see each other communicated. They shared news, jokes, and orders. Stockdale passed commands down the chain and received information back.
The tap code gave structure, leadership, and the knowledge they were not alone. He established rules: resist as best as possible. Do not volunteer information. Recover after every interrogation. The rules gave broken men a framework to regain dignity. Resilience, not perfection, was the goal.
Stockdale was released on February 12, 1973. He walked out of Hoa Lo with permanent leg injuries. He was awarded the Medal of Honor.
He said, “You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality.”
@Real_RobN I will post this again. I keep posting it periodically because she came to DC on Jan 6th to speak about the fraud in Italy but no one says anything when I post this clip from Flashpoint that day
@Highdiver24@Real_RobN@Justloveletters I heard or read Maria Zack's testimony years ago. I remember her uncle's question wondering why Leonardo was trying to control the U.S. Election. I'm sure there are many like me who also know of this.
