WASHINGTON — Starting tomorrow, all residents of the U.S. will be encouraged to keep a journal of all their daily movements, to be downloaded daily to ServeAlliance.gov.  Those who don’t feel encouraged enough will be taxed, which is certainly not a penalty, which Congress has no right to impose on people for not doing something.

Citizens who hesitate will (like Oppo) be unable to continue in their current employment.  They will also likely find (like Canadian truckers) their financial transactions halted.

A daily journal of citizens’ locations and movements will be required at the website.  Phased in (over five years) will be helpful requirements for more detailed diary entries of their thoughts and feelings, in addition to movements.  This is for equity.

Dr. Anthony Flockki, government spokesman, reminded the press that if someone has nothing to hide, he or she or they have nothing to fear from the new rules, which will not apply to members of Congress and those in essential positions.

Nope, that didn’t sound right.

Democrat Agriculture Secretary Nominee Says Farming ‘Isn’t That Hard,’ Farmers Work ‘Only a Few Weeks’ a Year
breitbart.com | 8/12/2026 | Jasmyn Jordan

Democrat Chris Jones, who is running for Iowa secretary of agriculture, was rebuked by Iowa Republicans after saying farmers are “wealthy,” grain farming is “not that hard,” and farmers are “only working a few weeks out of the year.”

The remarks were highlighted Tuesday by Iowa Field Report, which posted video from a 2021 interview Jones gave at the Iowa Ideas Conference, hosted by the Cedar Rapids Gazette.

“And a lot of this grain farming now, it’s not that hard. They’re only working a few weeks out of the year,” Jones said.

Think he’ll take on teachers next?

(… which is more than you’ll get from the mainstream media.)

How free childcare started winning US elections: ‘Overnight, people realized how essential it was’
The Guardian | July 29, 2026 | Sunny Patel

In a matter of weeks, Francesca Hong, an unlikely candidate for governor in one of the country’s most heated battleground states, will test a message that is at once radical and, to many, incredibly practical: the government should help pay for childcare.

“When we talk about free childcare, you can connect to folks whether it’s on an economic argument or just purely that it’s the right thing to do for our kids,” said Hong, a democratic socialist running in Wisconsin’s Democratic primary on 11 August. “I always like to remind folks: if we don’t take care of our kids, who’s going to take care of us?”

For 50 years, US childcare policy lived in the welfare drawer with programs such as Head Start, a free early learning initiative for low-income families, and subsidies focused on keeping poor mothers in the workforce. Anything broader was often shut down by conservatives advocating for families’ “personal choice” over government-run childcare. And while Democratic lawmakers, often women, campaigned on the need for affordable childcare – presidential hopefuls Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris made it central to their platforms – they had little success.

Then something shifted as the cost of care surpassed college tuition and a pandemic hangover pushed caregivers, and their wallets, to their limits: childcare became a middle-class problem that could no longer be ignored. In November, Zohran Mamdani made universal childcare a cornerstone of his New York mayoral campaign, and two centrists, Abigail Spanberger and Mikie Sherrill, won the governorships in Virginia and New Jersey, respectively, running on the same plank. In March, New Mexico became the first state to offer free childcare for all.

Can liberals even imagine any reason that parents don’t have 11 or 12 kids?

Or why non-parents should chip in?
