Politics. Run away!

She's going to blog. She is going to blog. Yes, she is going to sit down right now and blog about

anything.

Like toothpaste.

Have you ever tried to pick a toothpaste? Did you see all the choices?
Now how many political parties do you have from to choose?

2. When it gets down to it, you've got two choices. D or R. R or D.
So...does capitalism equal democracy?

This is fresh on the brain. I'm taking American Government from a professor of the left persuasion. I do not care to regurgitate everything I've heard from her. Yet, so much of what we've discussed in class makes sense. Why do we only have two parties that count for anything? Why do we associate the accumulation of material possessions with freedom?

Let's throw poverty into the mix. How does one take care of the poor? You certainly can on a personal level. However, I struggle with our federal government's role. My instincts say, "Government, save your people! Take care of them as you should!" My head says, "The poor you will always have...." I've listened to my head for a long time, passively.

It's not right for me to let this go on too long--this silent treatment. I haven't drawn inspiration from anything lately. If I do let out what's on my mind, you'll just hear me grappling with cars, pollution, freeways, trash, and a muted sun. And other stuff. Poor wild narisilme.

Silence...just a little while longer.
