Martha Matters

Saving money, and from the earliest age you can, will reap great benefits in the long run. Keeping the money safe from spending is key to making the money work for you. Old fashioned Christmas Clubs and the like made you keep the money in place and and in the end of the term awarded you with a nice surprise. That's the mindset for longterm gain. Forget you have it and the money will earn for you.  

Torrential downpours for several days kept Florida underwater. So many backyard moats to navigate. Streets flooded. El Nino got the blame! But it wasn't him this time around. Looking for a warm wet winter with many tourists enjoying our sunny days - inbetween the rain drops. 

Martha's Florida hurricane predictions have come true!  We seem to be gliding through the season with nary a hurricane in sight for south Florida. We have dodged tornados and most of the "bad" weather that could come our way. Yes, we've gotten drenched many days but that seems more of a typical Florida weather outcome than any hurricane's mess. Nationwide keep hoping and praying for good seasons and great weather. 

Local and state elections can be some of the most important decisions voters need to make this year. Looking at France and the demonstrations going on now gives us a good view of what socialism can become. We need to be mindful that our voting choices can result in this kind of denigration to America. Be mindful and vote for the best outcome for America. 

Voting for the far left democratic ticket will lead to an end result of less benefits overall for each of us. Capitalism has its woes but in the end it allows each and every US citizen the advantage of becoming the best of their ability. It allows and gives incentive. A free-for-all has to be funded by something or someone. When that runs out it's a disaster for each person. Look at the history of the countries that have tried this. 

When communism and socialism take over a country's political system it isn't long before the division of economics takes it's toll. Rights are taken away, politics become one party only, free bread runs out. When other people's money is gone there is no way for the free giveaways to be sustained. 

Recently, according to Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the ongoing embargo has had very positive results that we can acknowledge. Oil has been flowing at a "normal" rate compared with last year's volume. It looks to be an upheveal sometime soon with the Iran government. Greenland is another topic for positive information.And, talking with former Iranian citizens, the average person currently living in Iran is onboard with what President Trump is trying to accomplish. And nearly 50+% of the citizens in Iran are embracing Christianity rather than Muslim. They've become disenfranchised with Islam diabolical tendencies. As well. they embrace Isreal and what it's trying to accomplish. 

AI is at the forefront of the world now. And so is the fear-mongering of AI. So many talks saying AI is going to go rogue at some point. Where is that information coming from? Make sure the data is accurate on the stories you listen to. AI isn't going away. Let's keep ahead of the Chinese involvement with AI and we will stay ahead overall.

Freedom to choose. Do you want to loose that? We agree that Socialism and Communism do not take the welfare of the average citizen to count. We loose our individual rights. Our choices are limited. We are told "take it easy, don't work too hard," as a manipulative way to get us to agree to change opur form of government. Please look at the depth of what that's trying to achieve. It will make the rift between the classes and they'll be a minimal amount of rich people v. poor people with the greater number being poor. 

"Ask not what the country can do for you, ask what you can do for the country," is an iconic statement that proves that YOU are an important part of what makes the USA the greatest country.
