The Long Night of American Retail

By S.J. Kerrigan | Published: May 10, 2015

A nurse must portray a sincere sense of caring, but more than that, a calm, unemotional competence. They want to create the impression that everything is under control, even when death is certain. The job of a palliative care worker is to create the illusion of health for those who are dying, to make the symptoms of […]

Don’t Get Sucked onto The Hope Train Again

By S.J. Kerrigan | Published: April 30, 2015

Most of us know the President of the United States is not elected; rather they are selected by a mostly invisible cadre of elite power brokers who believe in growing their own power at all costs. In the end, an enormous amount of energy and attention is diverted to national elections precisely because it does not offer […]

Is Russia the Freest Society in the World?

By S.J. Kerrigan | Published: March 18, 2015

Recently, my parents were complaining about their property taxes, which, while not as high as some places, are certainly a burden. Property taxes are really a form of rent and a constant reminder that you don’t really own the house you have purchased. Fail to pay your property taxes and you’ll be quickly reminded of this […]

Religion, Zealots and Reconnecting with Our Mythology

By S.J. Kerrigan | Published: February 24, 2015

(Click to download an audio narration of this post.) A lot of people I know claim they are not religious. If they had said they were not very religious, I could accept it, but to claim complete separation from religious thought is like saying “I do not get angry,” or “I do not get hungry.” It’s self […]

The Shadow of Japanese Internment

By S.J. Kerrigan | Published: February 17, 2015

Today is President’s Day, officially still known as Washington’s Birthday. It’s a day where we celebrate the contributions of America’s executive branch, apparently regardless of what they’ve done. Of course, no one cares when Washington’s Birthday actually is; it’s always observed on a Monday to ensure consumers can shop on their three-day-weekends. The modern President’s Day is actually the result […]

George Carlin and America’s Death Instinct

By S.J. Kerrigan | Published: February 11, 2015

George Carlin once joked that mankind has done little more than demolish, harvest, strip-mine and otherwise blast nature into the past, where men of science hope it will stay, out of sight and out of mind, a phantom of a world that no longer exist except in very specific fenced in areas for tourist to gawk before […]

Exponential Growth and the Inevitable Collapse of Medicare Explained

By S.J. Kerrigan | Published: January 27, 2015

I’m continually surprised that many people do not understand what I mean when I say that Medicare spending at the federal level is growing at an exponential rate. I recently discussed this issue through Twitter with Jeffery Sachs, a Harvard Ph.D. and long time advisor to the United Nations, and even he didn’t see that […]

Never Mind the Torture Report (Or Rectal Re-hydration for the Masses!)

By S.J. Kerrigan | Published: December 9, 2014

Today the Senate Intelligence Committee is set to release a report on the CIA’s use of torture in the years after 9-11, but the contents of the report are practically irrelevant since the decision not to punish those responsible makes it an exercise in historical archiving at best, nothing more. After his inauguration in 2009, President […]
