    Hello Rosie:

    If we want a vibrant middle class, we should engage in trickle down economics.  Nahhh..  I DON'T mean investing in tax breaks for the rich.  That doesn't work.  It's NEVER worked.   I DO mean investing in education..  That works.  It's ALWAYS worked.

    Hello again, Rosie:

    Well, it doesn't work for Republicans..  They DON'T want an educated populace.  If you look at the red and blue map, the CITIES are always blue.  That's where the institutions of higher learning are..  They are NOT in Podunk, Arkansas.

     Yeah. I gathered that. A dumb citizenry is a manipulatable citizenry. They wonder not, question not, object not. How convenient for the pols who control them. Thank you for your reply excon and Happy US Labor Day Monday! :)

    A country full of educated people is better than one full of illiterate and uneducated ones.
