More Ripped from the Headlines — 4 Comments

  1. if you pardon my phrasing, it’s just more of the ‘same shit, different day’. We had it in the 30’s, 40’s 60’s, the late 70’s-early 80’s, about 10 years ago, and again now. Over and over the same stuff, just different people spouting nonsense about it, trowing money at it or beating it with a stick, all for little to no effect until the winds shift and things change on their own.

    It’s just cycles. Cycles of politics, of ebb and growth, of the economy and life.

    I really, truly believe that we shall all keep on keeping on, regardless of what dumb thing the government is up to this batch of fools and bobbleheads. Some people will want to be taken care of, some people will be utterly independent and resistant, but most will want some protection and oversight without being strangled by useless rules and regulations.

    Heck, even the climate is a cycle. Yeah, the things we do may impact it, a little, but it – like the economy – will do whatever it damn well pleases. We’re all just stuck along for the ride.

  2. Awesome find. I just found your blog through the A-to-Z April Challenge directory, and I’m looking forward to seeing what you’ll be posting about this month! Very fascinating array of topics you’ve amassed over the years… You’re quite the interesting person!
