Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

Whenever you ponder how Trump could possibly be president, remember the old saying: “Don’t underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers.“

Priests, politicians, psychologists, and lawyers, all make a living trafficking in fools. We went from an agrarian economy, to an industrial economy, now it's a fool economy.

Elon's fraudulent and privacy rights violating DOGE is further erroding people's trust and respect for government. That's all Trump aims to do. His rich cronies will try to capitalize on it later.

"DOGE’s wonky wall of receipts claimed that it saved $231,864,794 by cancelling an I.T. contract between the Social Security Administration and an engineering company. In reality, the cut only saved $560,000, a spokesperson from the Social Security Administration told The Intercept." - New Republic

Who volunteers to be subordinate and a guinea pig to the Veterans Healthcare Administration.. whose employees have more rights, immunity, and unlimited legal resources to back up any denial of care and abuse. Sounds like a great legal arrangement... for them. #veterans

Churches are houses of irrationality and fiction as fact. The philosophy that has led to the views of many psychologists isn't really all that helpful, and ideology has poisoned academia and the political sphere.

If a Veterans Health Administration employee abuses you or denies care mandated by law, from some perceived position of elevated rights, immunity, and backed by unlimited legal resources, then you have a duty to use raw power to enforce the law if the judiciary refuses to correct that institution.

Three kinds of people can be said to entertain fools for a living. A priest, a lawyer, and a psychologist. In a post industrialist, post agrarian economy, trafficking in fools is a lucrative business. So we can understand why there's not much incentive to encourage wisdom or speak the truth.
