Whose
reality
What
fantasy
Which community
decides
and applies
psychology
to
authorize?
Even after all these
years
and subsequent
experience
certain moments
shine.
Meaningful, and in
that sense
valuable
Been caught up in
the Holidays' wave
of creative
bliss
Dare say it's evil
-- the GOP plot to destroy
our economy and
public health for
propaganda against
the Democrats.
apparently people
are unaware and happily so
of all the actual
work done so far by this
administration
despite almost overwhelming
oppositional tricks
and ugliness – complaining
without knowledge
makes it so much more
tantrumy and
sad
apparently to be a
responsible leader these days
you have to learn to
go blind to racist/terrorist
messages in print,
voice, and person
a real issue with a
"free market" is that those
who have gotten to
the top tend to want to stay
there and use dirty
tricks, corrupt politics
and other unsavory
methods to trample
competition thus
rendering the market theirs,
not
free
we used to have
public education that
emphasized civic
knowledge -- the point of public
education was to
have an educated citizenry to
participate in a
well reasoned democracy. Now
our political
reality is a Reality TV game show,
much more like
football than Jeopardy. It has
become the major
tactic of a highly competitive
either/or to keep
the public ignorant of how
our system is meant
to work and
heap on the
propaganda.
so you think the
moment the bill is signed
the money will be
distributed? It is to fund programs
over time, more or
less slowly spent. Meanwhile, as
programs benefit
people's lives, the economy will
be growing and
people will need fewer services.
Besides, I thought
it was paid for
through a
billionaire's tax.
Of course some child
credits would go for drugs --
people can't afford
their medications or their kids'.
That is addressed in
BBB with a severe lowering of
drug
prices.
freedom other than
the freedom to barely survive
until you don't, is
dependent on a well-working
social system that
upholds that value and defends
it by acting
responsibly.
The thing is that
the costs are not the costs
but rather
investments to improve the lives of
so many millions of
Americans while making
it easier for them
to work productively and
expand the US
economy leading to greater
and greater tax
revenues and much less
output for social
services. Then, there
are the
environmental benefits to hopefully
keep a working
planet without which
no economy is
possible.
