I wanted to reply to the people who were asking for ideas about how we change things for the better......I mistakenly responded to an earlier note and it got buried higher up .....i have done a cut and paste so that it is at the end for those who continue to read only from the last entry.....sorry

For those who are looking for a concrete suggestion about what we should do in a country that is so controlled that our actions seem pointless..... Since a huge percentage of intellectuals and corporate managers (who may or may not be intellectuals) are foreign born (who have usually benefited by a first class education in their home country, or at least somewhere else), they should take a stand against what is going on in the USA and return to their home country (.....or just about any other country of their choosing) and do something about making the economy of other countries improve. If the USA economy was not propped up by the brain drain from other countries where would that leave these right-wing money-grubbing bastards.........If the USA economy was to decline to the point where it didn’t have the money to finance all the mischief it gets up to, then maybe we could all be safer and the third would economies may start to improve......I noticed that Australia is actively looking for people with all sorts of qualifications.....engineers, scientist, educators, technicians, hairdressers, fruit pickers, etc.......do a web search for the country of your choosing and get out of here before you are locked up!......other counties are much more in need of right-thinking people!

I wanted to also offer another comment that the Provost of a famous US university made when our daughter made a college visit last year.....

He was asked why the University had a reputation for being so liberal.......his response was that they try to hire and attract conservative faculty to ensure a balance but "INTELLIGENT" conservatives are very hard to find! He is not the only one who has noticed that!
