    Yeah. All the problems in the US government are self-created. They’re not small, but they’re also purely solvable, we’re just too incompetent at the government level to get it done.

    Climate change is a real problem. The kind that can’t be solved instantly if you can just get 60 people to all vote the right way, one day, when it gets too bad. And it doesn’t go away if you move.

      No no no no no, you are supposed to reassure me with nice-sounding “factual” statements!? Everything will be okay bc… Cap’t America, or sumtin.

      What I know is that if people have principles but not convictions, then they have neither.

      And unfortunately, greed is a principle.:-(
