Jon Loomis
I KNOW, John... RIGHT? I'm about to return my "Foreign born, Socialist, Forced Homosexuality, Atheist, Muslim Terrorist" Membership Card. We Liberals / Progressives have worked so hard to undermine basic American values and lifestyle... how can we keep our turbaned heads up, with our supposed "leader" aiding the capitalist economy like this?
Was unaware that half the value of the stock market was created between the years 1817 and 2009. Almost two centuries of tumultous times. Something to think about.
So much wealth is beyond our comprehension. We also are unaware of our own wealth within these systems, no matter how poor we may consider ourselves in comparison to those we think of as better off. The world is an amazing place and we cannot grasp it all.
Every truth has two faces, every rule two surfaces, every precept two applications.
