Robert Reich
An ode to a disappearing America
Friends,
Today I want to talk about the real meaning of patriotism.
It’s the exact opposite of the puffed-up patriotism peddled by Trump and his white Christian nationalists — with feigned fears that the nation is losing its whiteness or its dominant religion, that too many foreigners are crossing our borders, that men are competing in women’s sports or children are using school bathrooms inconsistent with their sex at birth, or that teachers are not celebrating the nation’s history.
To the contrary:
True patriots don’t fuel racist, religious, or ethnic divisions.
Patriots aren’t homophobic or sexist.
My Personal Politics
.jpg)
I belong to NEITHER PARTY, and I support NEITHER PARTY, nor will I ever change!!! One could say that I am both liberal and conservative which may not seem possible, but it is for me.
Here are my political beliefs:
- low taxes
- small government
- balanced budget
- pay down debt - then no debt
- more states rights
- term limits for all elected officials including the supreme court
- strong military
- no illegal immigrants
- no DEI
- mandate everyone to spend two years in military, no exceptions
- take care of Americans before other countries
- stand up to Russia, China, Noko, Iran
- continue with gasoline and natural gas
- explore but do not push green energy
- better support for veterans
- increase legal immigration
- no tax shelters for the wealthy
- no tax shelters for large non-profits
- trans rights but not to play in female sports
- female rights including abortions but not paid for by the federal government
- free healthcare
- no free education
- no employee unions
- global free trade
I understand that there will always be wealthy people but the wealthier you become the more taxes you should pay.
The government and businesses should get together and begin developing a plan for what they are going to do collectively when humanoid robots with AI replace 80+ of the available jobs.
To say this is not going to happen is a lie and now is the time to start planning for that.
Rhythmic mantle plume rising beneath Ethiopia is creating a new ocean
Rhythmic pulses of molten rock are rising beneath eastern Africa, according to a new study. The pulsing plume of hot mantle beneath Ethiopia, driven by plate tectonics, is slowly pulling the region apart and forming a new ocean near the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea, researchers reported June 25 in the journal Nature Geoscience.
"We have found that the evolution of deep mantle upwellings is intimately tied to the motion of the plates above," Derek Keir, an Earth scientist at the University of Southampton and the University of Florence, said in a statement. "This has profound implications for how we interpret surface volcanism, earthquake activity, and the process of continental breakup.
