Get Up, Stand Up

When will the people of the world summon the power to save us from this evil once and for all? The GOP is the most dangerous organization on the planet right now. And let’s make goddam sure that the climate-change deniers are held accountable for their reckless actions. The day of reckoning in the World […]

RIGHT WING BACKLASH

While most of the world is still in shock, the Trumpanzees are having their last big end-zone victory twerk this weekend, rejoicing in blissful ignorance of what they have wrought. The nation hasn’t been this divided since 1861. Those of us who were Bernie supporters are not only shocked and appalled at the GOP; we […]

An orderly and Just society

An orderly and just society is not only more humane; it supports the general welfare and the prosperity of all its citizens. We must have a moral, ethical and impartial society in order to make this happen. The concentration of political power in the hands of an elite few impairs our ability to adapt policy […]

Misogyny and Race

There is no doubt that misogyny played a role in the U.S. elections. There are only 23 women CEOs out of all the Fortune 500 companies, which is fairly damning evidence of prejudice. Additionally, only one of those 23 women is black – Xerox Chairman and CEO Ursula Burns – and there are only five black […]

Positive Change

In the wake of yet another stolen election, what must be done to make presidential elections fair? What mechanism – other than casting a worthless ballot every 4 years – gives rise to the True voice of the people? The changes needed to save our democracy are impossible under the present system. The new progressives’ faith […]

Hiphoprisy

What the fuck is wrong with Millennials? The choice wasn’t too difficult, was it? You had the opportunity to elect the first (admittedly flawed) female president of the United States; You had a misogynist psychopath unworthy of holding public office running for president. WTF? Okay, Bernie Sanders would have won by a landslide but the Dems railroaded […]

This can’t be happening

This is really it. There is no hope left for this country. Year after year, I voted for HOPE and CHANGE and this is what happens: Outright fascism. Well played, America! I’ve considered this possibility for quite some time, but somehow I never thought the country could sink this low. Rather than a slow, measured […]

The New Counter-Reformation

America’s educational system is a fraud. The lie begins in elementary school and continues through graduate school. But why complain? Our whole society is built on massive fraud. This is because the neocons took over college administrations just as they took over local governments and local schoolboards. The “educated” elite never cared about doing anything good […]

A Dangerous World

I support the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement, but I don’t see it having any real impact on US-Israeli relations. Passing laws which boycott companies doing business with Israel is an important short-term objective, but history shows that these measures are of little consequence. American firms have routinely subverted trade sanctions from the days of […]
