Jed Emerson is the thoughtful benign philosopher and practitioner of blended value and the purpose of an economy to support society, rather than the other way around. When he speaks, I listen and when he writes, I read.

We were running it in a year. Within 4 years we had a majority of town seats flipped Dem. A FAR more progressive Dem than old party

The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
