Why Protectionism, Not Economic Liberalization, Will Worsen The Coronavirus Epidemic In Any Infected Country

It's a good thing that Filipinos are TEMPORARILY banned from going to South Korea for their own good. South Korea even raised a red flag because the Coronavirus outbreak is out of control . However, I'm glad to hear that South Korea is TAKING ACTION and it has the RESOURCES. Now, before anybody can start saying, "Well blame free markets for the Coronavirus!" - you can consider the fact that the virus itself can hit any country whether it's a free market or not. All it needs are suitable conditions to breed and multiply. For example, the Coronavirus is hitting Japan not because it's a free market but because it's a cold country. Let's consider the reality of the Coronavirus spread. A recent report from Cebu Daily News  has it that his majesty Emperor Kim Jung Un of North Korea warns of serious consequences if virus reaches North Korea . However, the same link that has Emperor Kim warn about it also describes North Korea as, "The impoverished na...

Congratulations, #PeoplePower To #OustDuterte Is A Success!

Well, it's finally here and today we celebrate the #EDSAPeoplePower anniversary. There's good news. At last, the long task has been accomplished. #OustDuterte has become a reality based on the picture above. As you can see, the whole EDSA Avenue has been so filled with people like it was last February 22-25, 1986. At long last the dream to #OustDuterte is a success. If you can't see the people filling up EDSA today then you must be such a subjective moron. The dictatorship is over and good news - we are about to enter a new golden era of #DaangMatuwid by tomorrow. Yes, that is right, tomorrow you can expect a new president and vice-president . Wake up, come tomorrow, and we will welcome President Leni Loud Robredo  who will be a much better president. After all it was her miraculous powers that solved the water crisis by simply letting it rain by saluting . Who will be the vice-president? It will be none other than our valiant and ever-courageous Antonio F. Trillanes...

Hindi Lang Dilawan Ang May-Ari Ng EDSA Revolution

Hindi lang talagang pagtataka na ilang taon na ang EDSA ay bagsak pa rin. Hindi mo ba napansin ang #EDSAisDead na hashtag? Bakit kaya ito? Maari talaga ito dahil sa mga Dilawan na gustong angkinin na ang EDSA lang ay para sa kanila . Naalaala niyo pa ba ang ginawa ni Jim Paredes nakaraang tatlong tao sa anibersaryo ng EDSA ? Hindi porket na hindi nagsasabi si Paredes ng "p*tangina" na disente siyang tao. Ang ginagawa niya ay PAMBUBULLY pero tinakpan pa rin yun ng ABiaS-CBN, diba? Kailangan natin tandaan ang mga aral ng EDSA. Bakit naman pinatalsik si Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr. galing sa pwesto? Ito ay dahil sa 20 na taon ng pagiging diktadora. Hindi naman masama ang mahaba na termino kung mabuti lang sana. Kaso ang mga Marcos Years ay hindi dapat matawag natin ng golden years . Malakas ang inflation dahil sa kronyismong kapitalismo o economic protectionism, kinuha niya ilang pribadong kumpanya at nilagay sa kamay ng gobyerno (at hindi po magandang imbestor ang gobyerno kontr...

Communism Is Just Crony Capitalism In Disguise

It's so stupid at how some of the younger people fall for the lies of the likes of American politician Bernie Sanders or the likes of Bayad Muna members such as Carlos Zarate (Heneral Lunatic), Neri Colmenares, Stupid Ocampo, and Toady Casino. Communism promises an equal society where the government supposedly takes care of your needs. It sounds good on paper but it's actually impossible in reality. Yet why do so many people fall for it? The answer has to be linked with laziness as to one reason why people join communist groups . Who doesn't want a government where you don't have to work to be paid and the government supposedly takes care of your needs? But like the idea of Christmas every day  - the welfare state is but a fantasy that's ready to collapse like a bank that offers the double your money in X years package. A bit of a study of basic high school history classes and current events show communism is just crony capitalism in disguise. Consider the histor...

The Stupidity Of Anti-FDI Filipinos Who Love Imported Luxury Products

I remembered writing where I criticized Filipino communists who HATE capitalism but love its products . Although Valentine's Day is over - I'd like to really address another area where there are Filipinos who are against foreign direct investment but they do love having IMPORTED LUXURY PRODUCTS. Oh the hypocrisy, isn't it? It really reminds me of talking with people with expensive tastes. Such people didn't want a Samsung because they wanted an Apple. They could've had a Samsung Galaxy but no they had to have an iPhone X. They could've had a Samsung laptop but no they really had to have a MAC. They could've gotten a Toyota Vios but they dismiss it as a "kotseng pang-taxi lang" (a car that's just good for a cab) because they want a Mercedes Benz or BMW. These products are all imported luxury items born out of CAPITALISM and NOT COMMUNISM. When I talk about removing 60-40 entirely and invite foreign investors to do business with the locals, ...

Why Free And Quality Education Is Just Another Delusional Communist Fantasy

Demand for free education? I remembered writing an article about the stupidity of wanting everything for free . Sure, children and teenagers don't understand basic business concepts (unless parents decide to TEACH THEM WHY THEY HAVE TO PAY) but what about adults? Above is a picture of ADULTS (and you can notice Sarah Elago of Kayabangan Parylist near Antonio Tinio of Alliance of Not Concerned Teachers) are protesting for free education. Free and quality education for all? Typical Marxist or communist mindset now, isn't it? Businesses are categorized as profit and non-profit. For businesses to operate, they do still need a PROFIT to keep it going. If there are no revenues then where will businessmen (in general) get the funds to pay for their bills and to improve the businesses. A business may run not intended for profit but there is always the MARKUP price which gives the company its profit. Your net profit is not your day's sales. Rather, your net profit is derived fro...

Are You Infected With This Type Of #NCOV Called #NoCashOnValentines?

Filipino spending habits are something to consider hard to admire now, isn't it? I remembered writing about not budgeting for Christmas and New Year  is a common habit among many Filipinos. The 13th-month pay is really not enough. Too bad (at least for them) that Filipino business laws do not have Valentine's Day bonus, right? Because that's what I feel like I want to tackle right now with another meaning of #NCOV- No Cash On Valentine's! It's really no secret that the typical Filipino spending habit is anything but admirable. A good reason why so many Filipinos fail in finances is that they never save for a rainy day by spending whatever money they have on things that they don't really need. They tend to focus more on their needs than their wants. Valentine's Day is definitely one of them. Valentine's Day isn't even a holiday compared to Christmas and New Year. It's February 14 but you most likely have work or school, right? Valentine's ...

Why I'm Open To Letting Kathniel Play As Both Trillanes And His Wife Arlene

I still think of the Kathniel hype which is probably just for telebasura people. Now, it's time to consider a bit of Valentine's Day humor to liven up the mood for singles and doubles out there. Until now, I can't get over how these two idiots got away with violating election guidelines . This made me think that with the Philippines' current opposition tagging Antonio Trillanes IV as the new Ninoy Aquino gives me an idea with Kathniel. Personally, I want to see VIVA Films  in an attempt to make a movie that would make Trillanes look like he's a hero . While at it - they could actually get Daniel Padilla and Kathryn Bernardo to play as both Trillanes and his wife Arlene. Yup, that's because there's the possibility that Trillanes may get "martyred" and his wife Arlene may become Cory 3.0 after Leni Loud Robredo became Cory 2.0. I don't care what the plot of the movie or episode about Trillanes will be. Maybe, try to promote Trillanes as a h...

ABiaS-CBN Proves Itself Self-Contradictory Regarding Foreign Ownership While Upholding The Defective 1987 Constitution

As ABiaS-CBN shutdown may come to pass (and I'm still pretty mixed about it) - it looks like that the "best constitution in the world " (that is according to Hilarious Davide) is key to getting rid of it. So, it turns out that like CRAppler, ABiaS-CBN has been guilty of breaking the negative list rule . Here's an excerpt from Rigoberto Tiglao's article " ABS-CBN tramples on the Constitution: 22% owned mainly by US and Singapore firms " from the Manila Times that should reveal how the double-standard is indeed applied by the oligarchy; SOME 22 percent of the shares of media conglomerate ABS-CBN Corp., now worth at least P3.5 billion, are owned by foreign companies, mainly the Los Angeles-based, privately-owned The Capital Group, one of the world’s largest investment management firms. Together with several other foreign firms, including the United Kingdom’s Prudential Plc (through its Singapore firm), the United States company received P1.3 b...

Yellows May Have No One But THEMSELVES To Blame As To Why #EDSAIsDead

I remembered I wrote a joke article where I jokingly said that  Philippine democracy truly died last September 21, 2017 . I just thought that EDSA itself is a controversial topic. Last 2016 - EDSA turned 30  and the performance has been anything but spectacular. You can now consider the dying trend that's Ninoy Aquino Day. Now, let's consider why Yellows have no one but THEMSELVES to blame as to why #EDSAIsDead in more than one level. Since there's already talks about #OustDuterte (and I wonder if it will succeed this time) - I decided to write this post as a belated birthday present to the Dilawan's "chosen one" Noynoy Aquino. EDSA was a significant turning point in events. I don't even want to call the Marcos Years as the Golden Years . How can it be the golden years of the Philippines when the country was heavily buried in DEBT and economic protectionism? It's stupid to criticize the Marcos Years while you support the 60-40 provisions of the 1987...

Don't Politicize The #Coronavirus Entering Tarlac Like The Dilawans Politicize Everything

There are reports from both the Manila Times and   ABiaS-CBN  that the Coronavirus may now be in Tarlac. Health measures are now being taken. However, the word Tarlac may even more trigger-worthy than the name Wuhan in Hubei Province. It's because Tarlac is the very hometown of the Aquinos and the Cojuangcos. While some Filipinos were decent enough to make a video called "Bangon Wuhan" (Rise Up Wuhan) and tagged #PrayForWuhan and #PrayForChina - can the same be said about Tarlac which is their very own home country? The Dilawans are known for politicizing everything. Reading the annoying tweets of people like Frank Bayaran IV and Leah Navarro is something. Reading the stupidity of the paid propagandist (#PaBoost) Pignoy Ako Blog is another as it seeks to make Vice President Leni Loud Robredo look like she's doing all the work when she isn't. Now, the Coronavirus hit Tarlac but should we really politicize it in revenge against the Dilawans? The answer should ...

How The "Ang Tanging Ina Ninyong Lahat" Movie Shows The Perils Of The Presidential System

I admit that I really don't like most Filipino entertainment these days. Before, there were really good Filipino movies such as Anak (Child) which showed the perils of the OFW program. Now, it's time to consider another movie called Ang Tanging Ina Ninyong Lahat (The Only Mother to You All) or better renamed as Ang Putang-Ina Ninyong Lahat (The MOFO to You All) because of how horrible the movie is. Though, I decided to rewatch the movie to get a crazy idea on what to write on. I suggest watching this corny movie if you at least want to get an insight into how terrible the presidential system can get. Ina Montecillo is a woman who is four times widowed. I decided to watch the first movie Ang Tanging Ina  to at least understand her stupidity. The first movie showed her reckless behavior where she got married three times. She could have stayed single but her rashness led her to have twelve children from three different late husbands. She and her best friend Rowena always came ...

If ABiaS-CBN Celebrities Advocate Protectionism Then They DESERVE To Lose Their Jobs

I was thinking about my stance on ABiaS-CBN renewal. Personally, I want it to die by its own hand rather than because President Rodrigo R. Duterte said so. However, I gave a thought on the stance of ABiaS-CBn and the fact it holds plenty of employees. Shutting down ABiaS-CBN would mean certain people will lose their jobs, right? Yup, but there's one thing that you may consider sacrificing a few to save money might be necessary. Here's a bit of what I'd like to stress out. I could stress out about the quality of local TV programming. The big question is what has their "beloved" teleseryes done for decades? One can also think what has Kris TV even ever done to further educate Filipinos ? All those teleseryes and gossip shows by ABiaS-CBN have only made a generation of Filipinos who feel entitled and spoiled. You had some girls wanting to grow up like Kris. I wonder if it's true one of Vice President Leni Loud Robredo's daughters (and yes, they are all gir...

So, Commie Lawmakers Are "Defending Democracy" By Backing Up ABiaS-CBN License Renewal?

I remembered reading through Rigoberto Tiglao's expose on the Lopezes, communist fronts, and the Marcoses  (I suggest reading it) in the  Manila Times . I didn't realize that I would probably be sharing my own lowly opinion on the matter yet again. I may be no political analyst myself but it doesn't mean nobody bloggers like myself have no voice whatsoever. Just reading the whole expose revealing the possible double-crossing of the Lopezes blows my mind off. So, it turns out that they were jumping from one political party to another, they were also once Marcos cronies, and that they would later have an internal feud, then they would side with Ninoy Aquino who is also no hero either. Now, is it ANY surprise that COMMUNIST lawmakers themselves are now backing for ABIaS-CBN's renewal? As it turns out, Trending Balita now reveals that leftist lawmakers are indeed backing up the renewal of ABiaS-CBN ! Just reading the said article has this statement that caught...

You Might As Well Thank Squatterman If Ever The Philippines Gets A Coronavirus Outbreak

Joey "Squatterman" Lina himself has to be a real problem, right? Why do you think squatters have gotten more arrogant than usual? I don't think poor people can get that arrogant if it wasn't for a RICH BACKER. Just imagine how long it takes to get rid of squatters. Besides, I have no reason to believe that squatters contribute to both the humanitarian and environmental causes . Who says squatters only affect the rich and middle class? What about the poor people who work hard? Who says squatters contribute to the environment? They're just as bad for the environment as businessmen who sacrifice the environment for profit. In fact, it's a common practice to hire poor people to help in illegal dumping for evil commercialist businessmen. A new study  reveals that the Coronavirus could be spread through human waste . I do find the whole problem to be rather scary for this reason. Squatters aren't exactly known to be hygienic either. I don't want to furthe...

Yellowtards Better Explain How Their Beloved Leni Loud Robredo Can Better Deal With The Coronavirus

The recent Coronavirus scare is still going on. Rather than offer better alternatives as the Opposition  - Yellowtards would rather tag #OustDuterte, right? I may no longer be a Diehard Duterte Supporter ever since the "stupid G--" incident but I can still support some   policies by President Rodrigo R. Duterte. Now, it's time to consider a bit of a challenge to the Yellowtards. The challenge has always been that Yellowtards need to explain how Vice President Leni Loud Robredo can be a better president . Now, let's move it to the most recent incident. It's time to challenge the Yellowtards into explain how they think Leni Loud can better deal with the Coronavirus. Leni Loud herself still has the MASSIVE failure of mind as Rigoberto Tiglao calls it. She has FAILED in her work as housing czar, she even showed how she poorly handled her OWN HOMETOWN after the flood , and her dismissal from the Inter-Agency Committee on Anti-Illegal Drugs or ICAD would make you wo...

Understanding The Temporary Travel Precaution Is Necessary

We need to consider the whole travel ban thing. Sometimes, I wish the government set a bit of a temporary travel ban on Chinese nationals until the nation is fully equipped to fight the Coronavirus. Though, Singapore's latest restriction happens to have a specific ban and not on all Chinese nationals - something Karen Davila missed the point on. Channel News Asia has now presented the real scope on what Singapore actually did when the ban was imposed: SINGAPORE: In an effort to minimise the risk of community spread of the Wuhan coronavirus, new visitors of any nationality with recent travel history to mainland China will not be allowed to enter Singapore, Minister for National Development Lawrence Wong said on Friday (Jan 31). The real issue that Singapore has is with people who had a recent travel history to mainland China. If anything, I guess the Philippine government had done the right thing by TEMPORARILY not evacuating Filipinos in Wuhan . Instead, the Filipinos in...
