Retired. Happy. Progressive. Curious. Artsy-fartsy. Love a good book... meal... movie... and must exercise more. BUT. I am really worried about our country.
The mustard cleared my sinuses, and cleared up the facts.

Fantastic, Colorado! You're leading the way in the correct direction. #FreeSchoolMeals

Nobody wants philanthropy from rich jerks. We want their fair share of paid taxes. We want them to pay fair wages.

The robbed do not want crumbs of charity from the people who have stolen their loaf.

The reason socialism failed in the Soviet Union is because it was an *authoritarian* state. That's the little tidbit the red scare never told people.

The color may be a teeny bit oversaturated, but I KNEW it was Michigan--the beautiful state where I grew up. Love those autumn leaves!

A great composition. But, uhh, is that your brother or his dog?

Can states actually withhold tax payment to the federal gov't? The Feds don't automatically deduct it from somewhere, or have some other tricky-trick?

If they can, full speed ahead, with a coordinated stand from from all Blue states.

Obama was caught off guard by the corporations (wealthy special interests). He thought, as President, he was more powerful. Not the case.

Mamdani doesn't accept Big Money. He's an actual threat to a corrupt political system. I fear for him too.
