I keep doing research looking for ways to safeguard our retirement savings in light of America's recent suicide attempt. All the money related sites keep talking about is what effect certain policies may have etc. None of them seem to be even acknowledging the total economic Armageddon that I feel is practically inevitable. I realize this sounds alarmist, but I was pretty close to right about everything during his last reign of terror.

Names must be used. Only those of great evil (the Devil, He Who Shall Not Be Named) or those of great good (God)’are given monickers. They represent power so vast that one cannot mention their name or to use their name is blasphemy.

Although she means well, I refuse to follow this advice

MLK Jr. called out the great evils of his time, from racism to capitalism.

Ignoring them did no one any good.

One action we can take to reduce our impact on the climate is to stop producing and eating beef.

Scroll down in this article to see the table and charts. Very informative.

I gave up beef & pork years ago. I still eat dairy (mainly yogurt and milk) but as you'll see, dairy production is far less damaging to the environment than beef production.

I want a party that names billionaires it's enemy and welcomes their hated

The meme is correct--the problem isn't that we can't meet the needs of the poor, it's that the rich are insatiable
