Apparently, TRT, you believe the only folks who can possibly have "vision" politically are guys with careers in talk or print media, and you. What I said was that trickle down economics is not a tide that lifts all boats. To which you responded, "me and my family." While I agree that the favorite radio station of humanity is WIIFM (What's in it for me), I do not believe seeking economic policies that lift the maximum number of boats is "socialism." You seem to think the only options are Robin Hood economics or reverse Robin Hood economics. As for "willful gullibility," your fanaticism for Donald Trump, again, renders you a comical voice in this area of pontification.

No, I said you deny the truth and espouse the revisionist rewrite because it suits your palate. And I said, though your indoctrination via TV has left you full of yourself and the opinions of others, you are somewhat lacking. Take your grasp of Geophysics for example. Tidal influences end at the beach and estuaries of the coastline. Boats inland, are therefore never affected by them and such is the natural order of things. For reasons I'm certain have escaped you, everybody cannot be rich or even well off. But if you try leaning your head to the side and bang it a little with the heel of your hand, some of that high tide may run out and you'll feel better. :Thumbs:

All liberals, you included, continually conflate secular morality, socialism, and our free system of enterprise. Thankfully, the only power you really have is one vote. However, being that you're good with a keyboard, I'm sure Edward Snowden wouldn't mind filling you in on the shortfalls of your rationale and I'd say you both could use a penpal.
