Deals and walls and barriers to deals and balls through walls! Jeez, really? What a bunch of hokum. Monte Hall made deals, Theodore Roosevelt made policy. Les Nessman wanted walls and everyone laughed. Regardless of which side of this fence we sit on or the definition of said fence, there’s one thing for certain: This issue of border security, immigration reform and the other associated aspects have been reduced to being the living definition of a political football and may never be reasonably resolved. Theres nothing funny about that.
The Human Race is?
a) an actual race against our assured self-destruction.
b) the only species on Earth no longer driven by instinct.
c) always and fatally creating economic and social systems based on exploitation of cheap or free labor sources.
d) awesome at being exceptional and tethered to our core values right up until they become inconvenient.
e) should be very afraid that the new growth industries getting attention from wall street are pot, gambling and gaming.
f) rush to monetize before we understand.
Many of the same people on both sides of this national debate have flourished in business and politics, creating wealth and power beyond my imagination; while exploiting the same laws, conventions, considerations and integrity they espouse out of the public side of their mouths. Once again, the dialogue is broke, it has no value or collateral, just empty promises of rainbows and candy canes. Here’s who is not broke, anyone participating in the 2018 mid-term elections, normally a yawn fest. However in 2018 there was $5 Billion spent. Here at TTCU we call that shamefully wasted money (SWM). In whose best interest did that serve? As far as we see Tocqueville was right; as soon as the politicians realize the populace can be bribed with their own money, the political class will rule the people perpetually.
If we could only flip that coin and make our decisions based on our best interest instead of our self-interest, everything would be Jake. The answer to the previous question was all of the above.
As always everything must be considered in terms of agenda and in whose self interest is served. In this case it’s mine. I have been searching for new and different drinking games at Trash Can U, and this is it: Every time the President mentions walls or deals, take a shot.
Your welcome,
President Thackeray
