Stay Optimistic, Live Longer?
Increasing levels of optimism were tied to decreasing risks of death from cancer, heart disease, stroke and infections.I will put some effort into the project.

Team Trump’s New Pledge on Tax Cuts
The next Treasury secretary says taxes will not drop for the rich. He should be held to the vow.Easy words.
"What will Trump actually do? Who knows. Regardless, though, Mnuchin’s position is telling. At most, it suggests that Trump’s advisers are trying to figure out how to govern. At least, it indicates some of them realize that a tax cut for the rich is problematic, both economically and politically."
