Trump thinks invading countries is what strong man presidents do. From Russia, China and past empires. Putin whispered to him for 8 years. A war economy will focus us on feeding ourselves. The world’s billionaires and oligarchs, including sanctioned Russians, will get richer and be the ruling elite.

I just finished reading this, Jude. I loved and savored it. I aim to go look up much of the music you talk about and which I did not know (being a tad older than you is my excuse!). It was such a pleasure having you come to Boulder. All the best to you and your family for Christmas and New Year.

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s
