In 2002 Zimbabwe confiscated white farmers land by gunpoint which resulted in a humanitarian catastrophe. By the end of March 2019, South Africa intends to repeat this while the West is silent.
Property rights are fundamental to democracy and I fear the world, specifically the West, doesn't understand how significant this chain of events is going to be as the impact ripples through the world economy and psyche.
As always, I hope that there will come a day that skin color will matter as much as shoe size.
This is the blog of a middle-aged man trying to make sense of the world by dissecting the intersection of politics, science, investments and aircraft construction. My wife suggests that I lighten it up with the occasional vegan recipe or photos from our beautiful hikes on both coasts... Nah.

Trump is Anti Illegal Immigration?
I watch a lot of news and over and over I hear the same phrase... "Trump is anti immigration." Yep he hates immigration... Can't stand it and thinks it's destroying our country.
Wrong! Words matter and there is a big difference between illegal and legal immigration. His mom was born in Scotland and two of his three wives are foreign-born. It could safely be said that Donald Trump loves immigrants.
Why the disconnect?
The media HATES President Trump. They cried when he was elected and collectively they long since hung up their journalistic ethics. The mainstream media are to a person biased political hacks which seems like a crazy statement but for one fact... It's true.
STOP USING "IMMIGRATION" WHEN TALKING ABOUT "ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION." They are two completely different things.
