At this point in the decay of the American democracy, anyone overtly and publicly critical of Trump who believes he’s not on a government watch list is an idiot.

Government Watch List

Two comments:

1) If you want to a part of the environmental collapse that is coming from our civilization’s continued reliance of fossil fuels, you’re morally defective. In the parlance of the common man, you’re an asshole.

2) If you think there is profit available from investing in oil wells that the most sophisticated petroleum engineers turned done, you’re a total moron.

Do Oil Wells Dropped by Big Oil Represent an Investment Opportunity?

I met a professional investor today whom I asked for his prognostication about the U.S. economy.  He replied that the only thing he’s sure of is the growing chasm between the rich and poor, a point to which we agreed.

We’re living through the dying days of free-market capitalism.  Rich people have cracked the code to increasing their wealth without limit at the expense of everyone else on Earth.  They own our congress, as evidenced by the congressional Republicans, who kowtow to Donald Trump and their billionaire donors.

In the United States, morality has increasingly ebbed away to the point that trying to live a life of honesty and decency has become a joke.

One may think that the working class would be getting tired of being ground into the pavement by corporate greed, but no, they regard people like us as woke, socialist losers, so any attempt to turn this around appears to be going lightly nowhere.

As shown above, Bernie Sanders hasn’t lost hope.
