Owning up to what you are and what you think and what you hope and what you adore and what you admire can be surprisingly beneficial. You'll find bazillions of others out there just like you. No secret handshake needed. Just bond together and support cruelty at every juncture at ever level every minute of your life. It gives your life purpose and meaning and at the end of your life you will look back on what you fought for all your life and be most pleased with you. On your deathbed being pleased with your accomplishments and friendships is a very good thing. Isn't it? May we all be so blessed. less

That was capped off by Gordon Gekko in the movie Wall Street whose creed was GREED IS GOOD.Now greed is celebrated emulated and honored. Show's ta go ya what honesty will do. Ayn Rand made bazillions of bucks and had/has bazillions of admirers. I think WALL STREET made a bundle at the box office as well. .So that's how homo saps evolve. It's "better" to think what you think rather than what you think you SHOULD think. Healthier too. Progress is like that. less

Only the person who does the hiring can decide that. All in all hasn't don done a great job? He hires a lot and fires a lot always seeking that perfect blend. One day he will reach it.

Of course Eleanor Roosevelt came into her own and I'm not sure if any other First Lady was ever as dynamic as she was. Betty Ford is attached to the Betty Ford clinic in the desert which help people with problems of alcohol sober up. Nancy Reagan was involved with a JUST SAY NO to drugs. Jackie I think brought "culture" to the White House. I'm not sure if she had ahy particular thing she was passionate about. She was a classy dame but I'm not sure what else.Which FIRST LADY do you admire most and why? What focus would you like a First Lady to spend time on? less
Did FDR lie us into a war? Or rather was he informed in advance of the coming attack on Pearl Harbor and do nothing so that the American people would support entry into the war?
