Faintly Ridiculous

The heirs of the aging hippies.

Peter Pans of the modern era.

PC shriveled.

Dude.

P.S. Harvard goes dude.

...I was the first class of women to live in Harvard Yard. Do we get a blob painting?

P.P.S.
Apparently, the president is unaware that after some 2,500 years of both experience with and abstract thought about Western national economies, we know that a free, private sector increases the general wealth of a nation, while a statist redistributive state results in a general impoverishment of the population. At the root of that truth is simple human nature—that people wish to further their own interest more fervently than the more abstract public good (e.g., why the renter does not wash the rental car, or why the public restroom is treated differently from its counterpart at home), and can be encouraged to invent, create, and discover which all helps the less fortunate, lucky, healthy, or talented.
HT Pundette.

Anne
The middle of America. As for me, moderate in everything but politics. As Tom Roeser said, she went to Harvard and turned right. I come from The Chicago School, not the Chicago Way. Tweet street @backyardconserv
