My heart aches for workers and their families. Increasingly, the system is rigged against them and their isn’t much of a future. Or one that is easy to see anyway as a replacement for the declines in manufacturing, agricultural, and information technology jobs. The party they consistently vote for stabs them in the back. Constantly…
The news that Facebook was letting Netflix and Spotify read private messages is not surprising to me. Nor should it be to anyone else. So glad it is happening though. Because people are starting to talk seriously about Privacy in the digital age. Maybe we all had to feel violated to do so, but this…
While at Ford’s Theatre this last April the tour guide dropped a piece of wisdom. It left an impression on me. After telling the story of the theatre and the night Lincoln was assassinated he began to freestyle somewhat. He talked dispassionately about the divide in our country right now and how people are acting.…
We are six months into the Donald Trump presidency. Through the campaign I understood his movement and what he was campaigning on. A lot of those issues are real and true Americans realize they had gone unaddressed. Particularly about jobs, healthcare, international competition, and the fact that the swamp and the establishment is broken. The…
via Daily Prompt: Panicked I feel panicked about where we are right now as Americans. Not because I am a right wing constitution first person, or a left wing liberal, or a populist in the middle. But rather because I recognize that when it comes to governing, potential policy, addressing problems, or crafting a way…
The next two days at Augusta will be exciting and beautiful. Starting day three we have a leaderboard that is stacked with experience and underdogs. Plenty of past champions. Plenty of “never haves” such as Fowler, Hoffman, Matsuyama, and Garcia. Also, some youngsters that I am sure everyone will expect to fade. Then there is…
America needs to find out this week, at least partially, what all this Russia activity is about. Anything less and the public should be very upset. Upset to the point where we don’t let any faction get a pass. Politicians, media members, news outlets, and the angry right and left that stir all of this…
I don’t understand why they have Supreme Court hearings at all. You don’t learn anything about the prospective justice and both sides of the aisle dig into an ideology and try to promote it. Quickly turns into something that is just a waste of time. But this guy will be confirmed. After listening live to…
Nobody in Washington had a good day yesterday if you were in any way related to the Comey or Gorsuch hearings. You all lost. Yesterday was a day to remember for America but for the wrong reasons. The country become more divided, weaker, and even more rudderless. After taking in the hearings and the news…
People that don’t believe in climate change. Even if you don’t believe the CO2 research and causes don’t you realize that the Earth is all we got? Or that you don’t want the planet to become one big paved over strip mall with garbage everywhere? It is like taking a hard no compromise stance against…
