The Last Train to Quacksville
I don't really have too much to write about other than Trump repeatedly proving his incompetence. There are vague similarities to Adolph Hitler who was addicted to methamphetamines. Trump's puppeteers, in their demented mania, ruthlessly are trying to keep him in power. He will seal his own fate. I was glad to see Oprah on 60 Minutes. She has the most pleasing commentating voice of all those on television. Professional sports are in the dumper, but that is no big surprise. Television coverage never has been so amateur. A production company must spend dollars for good production, so the rich CEO and Board skimming off the top leaves nothing for the product. This is endemic all over America. Why should we pay millennials to sit in cubicles, mediocre office workers to host medical clinics, and poor pharmacists? What a wrong system of values in America. More it is rich CEO's and Boards paying a bunch of lackeys to keep face of their mediocre business. I'm sure if someone looked hard enough, fraud would not be far from the surface of their businesses. Meanwhile we hear about the opioid epidemic, but we do not hear why. Why is America on opiates? The answer is simple. Because we are in pain. Why are we in pain with a medical establishment sucking the life blood out of citizens? Shouldn't we all be in stellar health considering the costs of American healthcare? No, because no one in the establishment is interested in curing disease. I'll bet my left nut that all ready we have cures for cancer. It is not lucrative to use them. What a skewed set of values possibly because everyone is struggling. You can't keep paying CEO's a thousand times that of regular workers and stay in business for long. Perhaps we would like capital to be flowing freely again through the American economy, to those we see as worthy to receive fair wages. Perhaps the value systems of the American people should decide the job strata? Pay mediocre lab assistants to take your blood and give you bad news, often erroneous? Maybe we should pay quality waiters and waitresses, those who genuinely care about our well being and deserve a living wage for services rendered. Should we pay mediocre office workers to continue to disguise fraud? On another note I am happy to have assembled a small entertainment center in front of my television. The cable is gone. Gone! Instead I have glorious air TV, free TV! The programming is hands down more quality than cable. Who knew these old shows were still around? Very little progaganda. Dramatic acting. Acting. Wow to see that again. Wardrobe. Wow to see that again. Style. Glamor. Now I can watch air TV, listen to my iPod, listen to a CD and record any of it to a minidisc without taking off one pair of headphones. And I don't own a cell phone or an iPad. Old School Glory.
