CURTIS LOFTIS IS GRANDSTANDING

loftis

State Treasurer Curtis Loftis misses the point in his constant criticisms of the high fees paid to investment managers by the Pension Commission when he finds their performance to be unsatisfactory. The fees are standard. South Carolina is getting charged the same as every other state. If he really believes performance is unsatisfactory the reason might be that the Commission hired the wrong investment managers. And, Curtis Loftis voted for every single one of those hires. His criticisms are just a political stunt to get media attention, without actually doing anything serious to benefit the state employees and retirees who depend upon the pension fund.

SIC SEZ

sic speaking

Really? Standard? Numerous reports have documented how this plan pays some of the highest fees in the country and yet is one of the lowest performing on returns – a pathetic performance that costs the state hundreds of millions of dollars. Loftis has been the lone vote against the S.C. Retirement System Investment Commission (SCRSIC)’s annual investment plan for two years in a row. Not only that he has voted against many of the individual investments – and just this week he voted against all three of them. Most of the high fee deals existed before Loftis was on the commission. Meanwhile Reynolds Williams – the chairman who is under criminal and ethical investigation for allegedly profiting off the retires’ money – remains in charge of this $27 billion dollar fund. That’s remarkable – even in a place as corrupt as South Carolina.

FREEDOM WEEKEND ALOFT FOLLOW UP

balloons

Thanks for letting us know the facts!! I had no idea they changed the name of the balloon festival from “Freedom Weekend Aloft” to “Aloft” till this morning. We never attend but do enjoy the balloons. But seriously not allowing bags, and other items? Isn’t that what this weekend is about? Freedom? Oh so wonder what happens at 4th of July.

I figured the word ‘Freedom’ being taken out was something done by our Socialist Government. I enjoyed your article because it shoots it straight. Oops sorry I used a bad word.

I will not live in fear and haven child be fearful. I’m more afraid of our President and way he is doing to our country!

Donna, you’re welcome. And you’re correct! Freedom has become a dirty word … at least to those who are tasked with preserving, protecting and defending it. That’s too bad.

CORRUPT APPOINTMENTS

sc appointments

Since the news of the Nancy Latham murder-for-hire story broke, I became interested in how she became the Treasurer of the lottery commission. To the best of my knowledge she was appointed because of her friendship with Bobby Harrell and his wife. I have tried to find her resume or credentials, but all mention of her was pulled from the lottery website, but is now back up. Her strongest claim to fame is the following, “Previously, Nancy served as the PTA President at Charles Pinckney Elementary (2003-2005). During her tenure as PTA President, she successfully grew the PTA’s budget by over 300 percent which greatly benefitted the school’s outreach program and underserved school children. Nancy currently resides in Mount Pleasant with her husband, Chris, and their two daughters.”

My question is, how does this make her qualified to serve as Treasurer for the lottery commission? She is a real estate agent and as far as I can tell she has no financial management background. How can this be?! Just because she is BFF with Harrell’s wife. It’s absurd and the whole appointee process stinks.

I read Susan Pearlstine’s op-ed piece with great interest. Something needs to be done to bring about change to the “good old boy” system.

SIC SEZ

sic speaking

Agreed. But as we’ve noted previously we can’t have “reform for the sake of reform” – something needs to be done to stop the corruption. And that is never going to happen so long as the corrupt remain in control.

NO BITCOIN FOR YOU!

bitcoin

Like South Carolina maintains is monopoly on gambling, the Feds maintain their monopoly on money …

Via The Wall Street Journal: U.S. officials dealt a blow to the fledgling digital currency called Bitcoin, freezing an account tied to the largest Bitcoin exchange just months after regulators warned such entities should follow traditional anti-money laundering rules.

The Department of Homeland Security obtained a warrant Tuesday to seize an account tied to Mt. Gox, a Tokyo-based exchange that says it handles 80% of all Bitcoin trading. The warrant alleges the company and a subsidiary were conducting transactions “as part of an unlicensed money service business.”

SIC SEZ

sic speaking

Wherever the free market seeks to breathe free, there is the oppressive boot of government to stamp it out. And as Gary Lloyd famously said, “when the government’s boot is on your throat, whether it is a left boot or a right boot is of no consequence.”

Will says above…and I quote “Freedom has become a dirty word … at least to those who are tasked with preserving, protecting and defending it. That’s too bad.”

Along those lines maybe Will can write a column explaining why he chose to yank away our “freedom” to post pics on his site.

I understand that some censorship may be necessary, especially when it comes to certain sexual and violent content. This may require holding all reader comments posted with a picture until it is approved. He already does this with folks who try to post a link on his website. For example, I posted a link to the SC Rep. Davey Hiott’s page in which I suggested that Fits readers contact him regarding his nutty proposal on behalf of SC veterinarians seeking to limit low-cost pet clinics. The link immediately disappeared.

Silence on this matter, however, is very discouraging and would indicate that Will has a dearth of respect for his loyal readers.

I, for one, thought that the picture content was fun and interesting.

I am not especially afraid of attorneys either. Plenty of honest, decent lawyers out there but there are some who need to be f’ked with frequently. KInd of like the recent video Will posted of the security guard lady who got “no respect.”

I can’t believe that the guy who posted under the Rodney Dangerfield name got two thumbs down. Geez, people…don’t you recognize what a great guy old Rodney was? Thumbs down for Rodney Dangerfield. Are you sick?

I have several different blogs, two of which are dedicated to Goodwill Industries of Lower South Carolina (aka Palmetto Goodwill). The CEO is a lying, low-down SOB and I have been saying it (with undeniable proofs) on my blogs for over two years now.

Palmetto Goodwill is represented by Nexsen Pruet, one of the biggest, most powerful law firms in South Carolina. They won’t fuck with me because they know I am telling the truth. I wish they would but first they need to warn the CEO that he needs to update his resume as a back-up plan.

They also love the fact that I have been generating a butt-load in fees for their firm just to look at silly photoshops of the CEO in a monkey suit or as a troll under a bridge.

Again, two years and NOTHING from the lawyers.

If I CTRL+ to enlarge the teensy-weensy thin font so it can be read comfortably, the rest of the page squeezes down so narrow that barely four words fit on a line, with gobs of white space on left and right margins. Surely, you can do better.

I can remember when you couldn’t walk into a machine shop or auto repair place and not see a pin up or two. Now, holy moly man, you’d be tied and fried. Of course many folks today are into much more than the pinups too. Oh Well.

A side note about one of my neighbors. She is 84 years old and about 18 months ago she received a letter from a [ 3-letter agency ] telling her NOT TO MAKE ANY MORE COMMENTS ABOUT THE AGENCY! She was discussing something in an email to one of her daughters and made some comment about the agency (I don’t know what it was) and the agency read it and sent her the warning letter.. She is still frightened.

Reality Check: A side note about one of my neighbors. She is 83 years old and about 18 months ago she received a letter from a [ 3-letter agency ] telling her NOT TO MAKE ANY MORE COMMENTS ABOUT THE AGENCY! She was discussing something in an email to one of her daughters and made some comment about the agency (I don’t know what it was) and the agency read it and sent her the warning letter.. She is still frightened.

I thought Nancy Latham was getting a divorce. Why is the lottery site saying she lives with her husband?

her whole bio is a compete lie – she is not a lowcountry artist (ever seen one painting from her?) and I am told she hasn’t worked in 3 years since Husband busted caught her cheating. Now she has Bobby Harrell -current boyfriend taking care of her and using his poltical machine to cover up everything
