Our culture and government have been hijacked by over-educated folks with no practical experience but for support of their self interests. They belong to post-graduate job programs called Government or "non-profit organization" lobbies (that funnel their government grants back into committees to elect). What a shell game our system has become. Your posts have shown me that (politically agnostic) common sense and righteous indignation have morphed into belief there will be governance "for the common good". Thank you Alexsys...
This piece is particularly powerful. It makes me think of the ways that moderates reject extreme actions, even in the face of crisis. I have always been more of a fan of Malcom x: 'intelligently directed extremism,' 'by any means necessary' and 'extremism in defense of liberty is no vice, moderation in defense of justice is no virtue.'
holy cow again!! WOW. This is amazing. I'm blown away. BRAVO!!!
Thank you
