I hunted divers and sea ducks in Raritan Bay off of Staten Island many times in my youth. Those were some of the coldest hunts I ever had. Wet and windy many times. That's tough hunting and the salt spray is tough on firearms. That being said, it was a lot of fun when the ducks were flying.

Trump was forced to increase the debt because of CV-19 and the leftists fought him tooth and nail from the beginning when he tried to stop it from entering the country. Trump's spending was forced upon him by the American left. For the left to now claim Trump was all at fault is pure propaganda. No matter,the National Debt is a Bi-Partisan problem and needs to be addressed by the entire government without political bias. When we look at all the past attempts to control it, it's the left that objects the loudest.

They say the interest payment on our budget, due to uncontrolled spending, will be 800,000,000,000.00 [800 B] and actually surpass our entire budget for defense. Schumer says if we don’t raise the Debt Ceiling the Government will fail. We are Bankrupt and don’t know it! If anyone but the Government were doing this kind of creative financing the FBI & IRS would lock them up [Bernie Madoff] Our, the US, DEBT Ceiling is set at $ 31,400,000,000,000.00 or 31.4 trillion dollars. In comparison, that amount of money would weight 31.4 million tons! The bills neatly stacked, would stack up to a block equal to more than four Whitehouse’s! One trillion dollars in new crisp one-hundred-dollar bills would occupy about 400,000 cubic feet and would fill over 168 forty-foot shipping containers. If those forty-foot shipping containers were to be placed end to end, the string of those forty-foot shipping containers would extend over 1.27 miles. One trillion dollars in new one-hundred-dollar bills would weigh about 22,046,226 lbs., one gram per bill. Our national debt is more than 105×'s what Russia's is. This is what you could do with 30.4 trillion dollars. Just one trillion $1 bills at 6.14 inches long laid end to end would stretch from the earth to the sun and be 96,905,505 miles long. Flying at the speed of sound or 761 mph or 1100 feet per second, spitting out a stream of 1-dollar bills behind you would have to fly nonstop for 14 years before you reeled out just one trillion $1 bills. It would take you just over 420 years to spit out 30.4 trillion dollars and you would have to fly 2,945,927,352 miles or around the sun at its equator 1085 times. 30.4 trillion dollars laid end to end would wrap around the planet 118306 times and would weigh three million four hundred thousand metric tons or six billion eight hundred thousand pounds. If stacked flat on top of each other it would make a stack 2,063,126 miles high. Laid end to end 30.4 trillion $1 bills could wrap around the 272,946-mile-long equator of Jupiter 10,793 times and stretch from Jupiter's surface to the sun and back 3 times. Jupiter is 462,000,000 miles from the sun by the way. You could give every man woman and child all 39.5 million of them in the state of California $86,000 and some change each. If you tried to give away $1,000,000 every single day, it would take you 9315 years to do it or ten million dollars a day for 931 and a half years. That's our national debt. Now here's the really scary part our county's total debt to the world is more than 3 times that so take all of those numbers and multiply them by 3. During Obama's terms in office our country generated more debt than any U.S. president in our history. As a matter a fact he generated more debt than every single president added to together. Over $10 trillion dollars in 8 years. AND FINALLY It costs $942,000,000,000 = 942 billion dollars a year to service that debt at -- 3% interest. How long can we expect to avoid a total economic collapse?

Consequences of feeding deer in winter Now that white-tailed deer hunting seasons have ended throughout most of New York State, it may be tempting to begin feeding deer to “help” them through the winter. However, feeding deer during the winter or other times of the year is unnecessary, prohibited in New York, and can have very negative consequences for deer, your neighbors, and surrounding wildlife habitat. During the winter, deer primarily rely on woody and evergreen vegetation (collectively known as woody browse) for their daily nutritional and metabolic needs. The digestive enzymes in a deer’s stomach change in the winter to better digest this browse. If deer are provided with unnatural food sources such as corn or hay after this change in diet has occurred it can result in deer becoming ill or even their death. Deer will attempt to utilize the unnatural food source, but can develop acidosis (i.e., grain overload disease) or enterotoxemia (i.e., Clostridium overgrowth) disease because they can’t digest the food properly. Both diseases occur acutely and can result in the rapid illness and death of deer in winter even though their stomachs are full. Deer also congregate around food sources in winter which can increase the risk for disease transmission. For example, if a deer infected with chronic wasting disease (CWD) visits an artificial deer feeding site it will shed CWD prions in its saliva directly on the food, which can infect any other deer that feed from the same site. Congregations of deer around artificial feeding sites can also increase the risk for deer-vehicle collisions and deer related damage to landscape plantings, orchards, and tree farms. Inflated deer densities resulting from deer feeding can also exceed the carrying capacity of the surrounding habitat, resulting in wildlife habitat degradation. Habitat improvement, especially the creation and promotion of early successional habitat, is the best way to ensure that deer and other species of wildlife have plenty to eat all year and avoids the negative consequences of deer feeding. Anyone interested in improving wildlife habitat on their property can contact their regional DEC deer or wildlife habitat management biologist. For a list of tree and shrub species that deer prefer to eat in winter and that you can promote on your property, visit DEC’s winter deer foods webpage.

Those of you who called us the “far right” for speaking the truth, should start calling us “right so far.”
