It’s MLK day. I cannot think of a more moving bit of oratory than his “I Have A Dream” speech. Some of Churchill in the war comes up to that level, but nothing exceeds it that I have ever encountered. His dream called all of us to be people…
So it seems that in Minnesota a church is organizing a general strike against I.C.E. That article contains a list of participating businesses that is, to my mind, pathetically short. For such a strike to be truly effective this list would have…

I read a fascinating article yesterday about Gen Z and money. It paints a picture of hopelessness, describing Gen Z’ers as “doom spenders,” and uses other unhappy words like “disillusionomics,” “economic nihilism” and “money…
The host’s interview of the President a couple of days ago was great. (video…transcript) The interview opened with Iran. Much has happened in that repressive nation since and it puts the President’s statements in that interview on the line.…
