A Pakistani-Born Business Consultant’s Warning

August 30, 2020

But first, this warm-up: I Resigned from U.S. Government After My Own Leaders Began to Act Like the Autocrats I Analyzed.



And now, for sure, no matter whatever else you have on for today: We Don’t Know How To Warn You Any Harder.



Was it a “tell” when we learned Trump — not a big reader — kept a book of Hitler’s speeches by his bedside?  A “tell” when we learned he gets on well with journalist-murdering autocrats?  A “tell” when he adopted Stalin’s line that the press are “enemies of the people”?



As much as most of us are already volunteering and contributing, I think we should consider doing even more.  Worst case, we win by “too much.”  But in the current circumstances, could that even be a thing?

Quote of the Day

"There are two ideas of government. There are those who believe that, if you will only legislate to make the well-to-do prosperous, their prosperity will leak through on those below. The Democratic idea, however, has been that if you legislate to make the masses prosperous, their prosperity will find its way up through every class which rests upon them."

William Jennings Bryan, 1896
