First, is it me or what, but doesn’t it seem the more
technological advances we have the more vulnerable we become in our human
existence and human lives?
Remember in the old days if you were fat that meant you were
well off. It was sign of prosperity. Now it is the poor who are fat due to
cheap food with no nutritional value and lack of education to nutrition and the
rich being fit since it is expensive to eat healthy food. Food for thought since the Republicans continue
to want to cut off aid to the poor when in the long run, it will cost us more
in Medicaid bills or worse since diseases will run rampant through society. Add
lack of a good education to the mix and we have no people able to take on high
tech jobs in this country and more and more people in prison dragging on our
productivity and development.
Next, we have John Tamney writing in Forbes “All Hail Donald
Trump’s Team of Billionaires” in which he tries to convince the reader that
Trump’s billionaires are going to be a benefit to the country. These people
will be the people who will convince Trump of public policy that will put in
place great economic development with new tax cuts that are well basically for
themselves. He writes extensively how their investments based on having tax
breaks will lead to much new prosperity for all.
Well Mr. Tamney I do agree billionaires do invest and do
well, yet is mainly for their benefit only. This is why they are billionaires.
They spend their whole lives expanding on their wealth. They do not spend much
time working on good public policy for all. I am just wondering why you think
they are going to have some epiphany and create a new investment world where
the economy turns around for all. Mr. Tamney billionaires can be billionaires.
A strong economy can benefit the majority of us, yet I do not see why these
people being in charge is good for public policy. It isn’t in their nature and
I do not expect it to be. There is a reason you have a Republic that is supposed
to vote for leaders that take in the whole picture. Unfortunately, we, the
people, failed ourselves. Please do not try to sugar coat the economic horror
the middle class has self-inflicted on ourselves.
From Shakespeare…sort of
American People:
“O common sense, common sense wherefore art thou common
sense? Deny our forefathers and refuse thy Constitution; or if thou wilt not but
be sworn back to us and I’ll be no longer ignorant
Oligarchy:
(aside)
Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?
American People:
Tis but my own greed that is my enemy, thou art thyself though
not a member of the people now. What’s people? It is a worker or charity or
family or struggle or any other part belonging to a society. O be some other
name. What is in a name? That which we call a dollar by any other word would
work just as well, so common sense would were you not called common sense
retain that dear perfection which you owe, without that title common sense doff
they name and for thy name which is no part of thee, take all from myself
Especially since we take it away from ourselves
And for wild card weekend….. sheesh those Cowboys better be
prepared. Green Bay looks up to the task. And looking at the 7day weather
forecast welcome to Texas, a few days of unusually warm weather during the
week, then when the Packers arrive a bit of their weather. Only in Texas.
It is Epiphany all.
