Democratic “leadership” remains dedicated to supporting Israel’s survival and its ongoing genocidal activities, and torpedoing liberal Democrats. They and the nation would benefit should they turn their attention to supporting America’s survival and those working to ensure it. Or, preferably, just getting the hell out of the way.
This is an opportunity, Instead of running from the charge of communism, Equate it to health care for all, education for all, pot hole and bridge repair, affordability.
It is people of Trump's generation, the ones that grew up with nuclear drills diving under desks, which have been conditioned to react to the word communist.. With the fall of the iron curtain, the word has become an anachronism, of ancient history.
It has only been resurrected because of the rise of DSA, but be sure the Democratic Patty will run away from it, and bend over backwards to prove the opposite, just as they always do when the Republicans hurl a charge or a slur.
When the Republicans are accused, they lean into it, they double down. accuse them of being fascist, they declare war on anti fascism.
To use the phrase from a protest song"When will they ever learn"
Re: the stick shift. I had to trade in my pick up for an automatic shift, because my wife's legs were not long enough to keep using the clutch.. However it is cheaper, easier and faster to replace a clutch, than to repair or replace an automatic transmission, And Auto manufacturers need dealers
And the real profit in a dealership comes from the repair shop, and they have to keep the mechanics busy.
If you tried to build a car, by purchasing one piece at a time , you would need hundreds of thousands if not a million dollars, there is that much profit built into parts, not to mention labor of which the dealer gets 50 to 80%
A car dealership is the worst place to go for repairs. Their prices are excessively high even for an oil change. Find a local, independent mechanic that is honest and you will have a friend for life. This is especially true for women. They are more likely to get overcharged.
I agree with your analysis re shifting gears & alertness. I owned a trucking business & drove a truck with a 13 speed non synchromesh transmission. If you didn't time shifts just right, it wouldn't engage the next gear. Once mastered it gave me better control of the truck than a computerized shifter could. In snowy conditions a manual transmission gives you more flexibility.
Trump is setting the stage with his election fraud rubbish, for the time when a manufactured "false flag" security crisis gives him the tools to nationalize elections.
Hello, Thom,
Looking forward to reading your new book. Reading your reports is not always pleasant, but essential

Love this phrase in report "The billionaires spent two generations proving Keynes’ point better than Keynes ever did..."
Fox covered Trump’s speech “the way a cat covers what’s in its litter box.” Hilarious!!
