Issues of note in an election year

Monday, February 15, 2016

I have some perplexities about Bernie Sanders, and especially the way some of his fiercest adherents are getting overly emotional, when the blue Union needs to wage this phase of the Civil War with icy reason.

Still, in several topics Bern is the only guy talking about core problems.


"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

I like the tax on stock trades if it isn't too onerous. A European country did this and lost a lot of their trading to London, but I think it would be pretty hard to replace Wall Street.
