They Have Money. (Shhh.)
An essay about the discomfort some people feel about their wealth provoked strong reactions.A just system does not attempt to limit access to wealth generation beyond environmental maintenance.
Systems that "level up" have yet to be invented.
The effort should continue.
Charity is not the way.
Exploitation is destructive.

Our Constitution Wasn’t Built for This
It’s lasted 230 years, but the founders didn’t plan for this economy.Ganesh Sitaraman has reached the wrong conclusion.
People remain human.
The constitution was built to deal with humans living in a nation composed of sovereign states.
It is intended to evolve to deal with changed circumstances.
It has been prevented from evolving for a century.
The necessary changes must be debated and allowed.
The constitution was built for exactly this.
. . . "government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

What Trump Needs to Learn From Vietnam
The stalemate strategy didn’t work there. It won’t in Afghanistan either.Donald Trump has not learned.
He will be impeached or term limited.
The commanders may tell him his alternatives are withdrawal,
military revolt or assassination.
The Korean armistice will not work in Afghanistan.
