Getting it Right - Welcome

The goal of this blog is to publish my thoughts on a variety of economic and political topics in the hopes that people who find them educational or beneficial will utilize them and/or forward to others who might find them interesting and/or worthwhile to promote to others, possibly including politicians who can push some of these ideas to fruition. The topics in my blog are meant to be of value on a long term basis, not a daily diary or political issue of the day log. If the information posted is useful to you, by all means utilize it and/or forward it as you see fit. If not useful, then merely ignore it. There are no universally agreed upon truisms and too little tolerance between some of those with opposing viewpoints to successfully convince the people with hardened opinions to move away from them. I am an analytical type person who will try to be as factual as I am able.

I disdain the current popularity of name calling and condemnation of viewpoints with no factual alternatives or logical solutions given that I see so often. If you don't have a solution based on fact and logic, then opt out of the discussion because you have nothing to contribute. My background is a degree in Economics from the University of Michigan and 39 years working in middle management jobs for a major retailer. My opinions are forged on the personal experence of life, family, friends, and work as well as triumphs and mistakes that I have made and hopefully learned from. My hope is that this blog helps you.

My first topic will be about personal finance. I chose that one first because most of us work long and hard just to survive but not all of us realize our dreams of becoming financially independent from the labors of our work. Much of our political votes/thinking also focus on the economy and in particular how well we are personally doing financially.

It is relatively simple, without sacrificing the enjoyment of living for 'today' and even at moderate incomes, to retire as a millionaire or multi-millionaire, if you focus on that goal consistently from a young age. It is also simple to ensure that your child or grandchild retires rich. It merely requires a one time gift of just $2,000 invested wisely and the passage of time. Please read my first post on this blog to learn more.

The Most Dangerous Cities in America Are Run by Democrats

 The Most Dangerous Cities in America Are Run by Democrats

27 of the 30 most dangerous cities in America are run by Democrats and most have been run by Democrats for decades.

As an example, New Orleans has been run by Democrats since 1872. It has the highest homicide rate of any city in America. Many of these cities have pursued Defunding the Police, eliminated cash bails for some crimes, and have refused to prosecute some crimes. In other words, these cities have increased the incentive of people to commit crimes. Plus these cities are often having trouble attracting enough police to fill their approved police rosters because so many police have left the force due to the negative attitude toward them by Democrats and so few want to become police now for the same reason Therefore it should be no surprise that Democratically run cities are the most violent, crime ridden cities in the nation.

Only the residents of these cities can fix this problem. They need to vote Democrats out of office and replace them with Republicans who support the police and are tough against crime. Otherwise, history will continue to repeat itself.
