We r a society based on Anglo-Saxon civics, a form of values laden inductive pragmatism.

Per Wendell Holmes: our society is a patchwork quilt of ideologies; each used where they made the most sense & each ignored where they do not.

The idea of 1 ideology prevailing over all others is a fallacy.

What r you doing about the concentration of wealth?

All problems cascade from that.

In the aggregate:
Decency/ethics/morality r a middle class characteristic: the rich (Epstein/Trump) don’t need them; the poor (their victims) can’t afford them. (Desperate people do desperate things)

Tax the rich

I think they call them MAGA now but I’m not quite sure.

“T’was always thus and thus it will always be” - Dead Poets society.

It was that way, even when you were busy being a Republican.

My Dad w/ High School diploma retired as maintenance mech at $325k/yr in 1992. He helped me get educated. I’ve B.A+J.D. (from tier 1 univ)& 25yrs in tech & I make $7/hr more than min wage from 1970. (still paying college loans).

(But Union electrician in my area makes $40/hr)

Ain’t America grand?

Our system is based on free contract. In such a system bargaining power is everything. Don’t redistribute wealth, just redistribute bargaining power & you change everything.

Corporations r ownership collectives it’s only fair that they should have to bargain w/ collective labor to keep things fair.

Actually Christ was for separation of Church&State & commanded followers as such in 3/4 of gospels. Why? Bcuz the lesson in the Prodigal Son & the importance of Free Will

God wants all of us to find our way to him via our own volition. Almost impossible to make the prodigal journey w/ secular govt.

Do democrats take money from billionaires?

If they do, do they then ignore their interests?

If you are not with Bernie you are either Republican or Republican-light.

You say that like it’s a bad thing.

I think the scary part is the lack of flinching and the sense of certainty she resides upon when she lies. It’s as if she is showing off to the world the extent of her super-power to be able to lie unflinchingly. Quite amazing and sad and horrific at the same time.

So it is grouped with the cluster b disorders?

Several nations in Northern Europe are actually monarchies and as such the monarchs are sovereigns of their country and as it happens, they are Christians and so technically speaking they are Christian nations. I actually think this works better. A king would have insisted on a new prime minister.

Well he’s still subject to the same air traffic control system that we are subject to.

Poverty’s a form of violence. U have the richest paying millions to inflict violence upon millions of the poorest of the poor of their fellow countrymen. How much blood&gore will satiate there desire for violence.

Billionaires r grotesque.

Ask each how they plan on avoiding hell in the afterlife?

Put an Oval Office in it and call it the west coast White House and station Ducks there complete with an armed garage.

She can allege all kinds of things but he’s none of them until proven in a court of law.

In the spirit of Trump’s “your the puppet”, I have heard someplace that Bondi is a member of m-13.
