Seattle Democrats have begun fining businesses for homeless encampments (This is real) “Who's to blame for homeless encampments on private property? If you’re Seattle, it’s not the homeless. It's not the city. It's property owners who should be punished.” Business owner goes out of town for a couple days, “and that's when 15 to 20 people moved into the parking lot. Those unhoused neighbors? Yeah, they kept doing drugs-drugs out in the open. Naturally, this generated a ton of complaints — since Seattle has made it difficult for property owners to remove encampments, Hawley called the cops. He then invested $30,000 more in a new perimeter fence, but for the Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections, this wasn't enough. The city sent him a letter of property violations that included unauthorized entry, litter, overgrown plants, and graffiti. For the first 10 days of non-compliance, penalties are $150 a day. After that, penalties increase to $500 per day for each violation. Penalties keep adding up” The city then begins charging the property owner fees to prove they’re in compliance “Of course, they also charge fees for the monitoring, but those depend on the condition of property at that time. A building with no violations still incurs a $332 fee. A building secured with violations totals $652, and a building open to entry is a $782 penalty, and since the state hasn't screwed you enough, they also charge a 5% technology fee.“

*Dr. Gideon Boako writes on Cedi Performance and the underpinning Bawumia Formula* *Like the typical NDC, our Goldbod CEO, Sammy Gyamfi, is failing to appreciate the issues and show gratitude for implementing the Bawumia Formula.* They steal your ideas and insult you on top of it!_ 1. First, why are we all celebrating a stronger cedi today? 2. Yesterday, the Finance Minister attributed the cedi’s strong performance to the NPP’s Gold for Forex initiative! Well, he said the programme of the GoldBod to buy and sell gold. Yes, Gold4Forex! 3. ⁠But, how did it all begin? Whose idea was it to leverage our gold to stabilise our currency, the cedi? 4. ⁠It was Bawumia! He found a solution to the problem that the country had battled with since the 1960s without success, cedi depreciation. 5. ⁠*It was Bawumia who realised that we can use our own gold to protect our local currency* and he started on two fronts: (a) by doing what no government had done before, building up Ghana’s gold reserves heavily and (b) by selling gold to tackle a forex problem for buying the one commodity that affects the price of everything, petrol/diesel, with the Gold for Oil initiative. *Remember that G4O was a pilot scheme*. 6. ⁠The experiment worked, with the Central Bank accumulating gold reserves and releasing cedis for PMMC to buy gold for forex. Indeed, BoG used gold for forex (G4FX) for several items, including drugs, legitimate repatriation of profits for multinationals, eg, $211m for MTN stuck here for years. 7. ⁠*Bawumia promised in 2024 to institutionalise Gold for Forex to make it the main basic anchor for cedi’s stability.* 8. ⁠He laid out his plans in the NPP’s 2024 Manifesto. The NDC read it. Liked it. 7. ⁠He did not win, but the NDC which won saw wisdom in it and, with the GoldBod, has made G4FX their only known key policy! Not even 24 Hour Economy has happened! 8. ⁠But, when Bawumia started this G4FX agenda, the NDC called him all sorts of names. They said it could not yield any results. They even described it as corrupt! But Bawumia believed in his ideas, and he had the support of his boss, President Akufo-Addo, to pursue the plan. Today, we are here because of Bawumia’s brains, his vision, and his ability to find solutions to Ghana’s problems. 9. ⁠*Today, not only NDC, all gold producing economies in Africa, including Namibia and Burkina Faso, are using the Bawumia Gold Formula to achieve macroeconomic stability and protect their economies.* 10. ⁠But, is the Mahama government going about it the right way? We doubt it. We are worried. 11. ⁠The aim of Bawumia and the NPP was to build both gold and gross international reserves to appreciable levels before seeking to inject dollars into the economy as a measure to contain depreciation. 12. ⁠The NDC has neglected building up our gold reserves since January and only focusing on buying gold for forex. This imbalance will cost us dearly if not fixed quickly. 13. ⁠You cannot continue injecting dollars without addressing the structural defects that keep the local currency on the depreciating path. 14. ⁠Gold for Forex is one thing, but where is the industrialisation policy too? 15. ⁠If today’s quantum of reserves had not been built by the previous government, there is no way the current government could pump such a huge amount of dollars into the market to contain the depreciation. 16. ⁠If the NPP government had not thought about the future, the cedi would have been suffering today. Mahama should think about the future like we did, start again to build higher gold reserves, and let’s see his industrialisation programme as well. 17. ⁠For now, please thank Bawumia and the NPP for bringing the idea of using our gold to stabilise our cedi. Don't be ungrateful. Ghana succeeds for all of us. Shalom.

The most honest 3 minutes in TV history by Oliver Stone : Stone told reminded filmmakers that “you can be critical of your government and your society.” “You don’t have to fit in,” the Oscar-winner went on. “It’s fashionable now to take shots at Republicans and Trump and avoid the Obamas and Clintons. But remember this: In the 13 wars we’ve started over the last 30 years and the $14 trillion we’ve spent, and the hundreds of thousands of lives that have perished from this earth, remember that it wasn’t one leader, but a system, both Republican and Democrat. Call it what you will: the military industrial money media security complex. It’s a system that has been perpetuated under the guise that these are just wars justifiable in the name of our flag that flies so proudly.” Stone continued that our “country has become more prosperous for many but in the name of that wealth we cannot justify our system as a center for the world’s values. But we continue to create such chaos and wars. No need to go through the victims, but we know we’ve intervened in more than 100 countries with invasion, regime change, economic chaos. Or hired war. It’s war of some kind. In the end, it’s become a system leading to the death of this planet and the extinction of us all.” He concluded with advice based on his own experiences. “I’ve fought these people who practice war for most of my life. It’s a tiring game. And mostly you’ll get your a– kicked. With all the criticism and insults you’ll receive, and the flattery too, it’s important to remember, if you believe in what you’re saying and you can stay the course, you can make a difference,” he said. “I urge you to find a way to remain alone with yourself, listen to your silences, not always in a writer’s room. Try to find not what the crowd wants so you can be successful, but try instead to find the true inner meaning of your life here on earth, and never give up on your heart in your struggle for peace, decency, and telling the truth.”
