National sales tax, aka consumption tax, aka Fair Tax. Is the Right Wing head fake into UBI! I was tracking this back when this was warming up in the early 2000's. What you are not being told. Is that the new higher taxes will fearure a government "prebate" check. Or, whatever they choose to call it. A government payment, to compensate. This is especially what lower earners will come to depend on, but in time everyone. It will be marketed as the way to even the purchasing playing field. But, this is UBI, and we all will be made dependant in time.
I am no fan of our present income tax system, but we are being setup for worse. I am also not a Libertarian, or any of the political theatre groups. But, some Libertarians have been warning about the Fair Tax hook to UBI for decades.
Whoever invented tabbouleh is a genius. I started making it because our local regenerative produce farm, Growing Back to Eden, has the most beautiful parsley. I had no idea how healthy it is! Parsley is a vitamin K super green, not to mention it’s packed with so many other nutrients. It makes regular salad greens look lazy. I opt out of the bulgar wheat and just use tomatoes, onion and mint. Back when I bought tabbouleh, I’d notice it was often made with cheaper oils like sunflower or canola. I use olive oil and a dash of sea salt. It’s so easy and if you make a lot at once, it holds pretty well in the fridge for a week.

Fermented foods are not just good for people, they are great for animals. Fermenting chicken feed is so easy and it makes the grains far more nutritious. All you do is put your feed in a bucket and add water until the water covers the feed. Let it soak for 1 to 3 days and you should see it start bubbling. It’s fermented and ready to feed your chickens. You will probably have to add more water after your initial mixture grows in volume to make sure there is always a little bit of water covering the top. This prevents mold. Our chickens love their fermented feed and will leave any dry feed untouched if their fermented feed is in front of them.
We met Corona at 4H yesterday, she’s a one-eyed barrel racing horse. She had ocular melanoma and her eye was surgically removed last year. She has made a full recovery and is back to barrel racing! She has won over $400 in local competitions in just a few months with her young rider.
