I disagree with Hightower.

What you will find here is: a centrist's view of current events;
a collection of thoughts, arguments, and observations
that I have found appealing and/or amusing over the years;
and, if you choose, your civil contributions which will make it into a conversation.

American prisoners

.
From Fareed Zakaria GPS and Pat Robertson.

America has 5% of the world's population and 25% of the world's prisoners.

California spends less than $9,000 per year per student and more than $50,000 per year per prisoner.

Is this who we have become?

Our politicians are so obsessed with their conflicting economic certainties that they will not deal with our real and pressing problems.

Is it not time to say ALL OUT?
