A Whole New Thing For Us As A Country

March 8, 2023March 7, 2023

Georgia’s Republicans are poised to squelch the prosecution of Trump for his effort to find “just 11,780 votes.”

They’ve decided they can’t trust a jury to decide the case; they need to be able to fire the prosecutor and shut it all down.

Watch.

As the host says — and I know some of you don’t like her, but you should listen anyway because our democracy is at stake — “this is a whole new thing for us as a country.”



I’ve taken a gamble on UNIT.

At $4.70, with a 60-cent dividend, it yields 12%.

Check it out if you have a high tolerance for risk.

If interest rates stay high for three or four years, I will lose all my money (less dividends I may have received along the way).  If interest rates moderate after a year or two, I could earn that yield for a long time and enjoy a capital gain when I sold.

I can afford to lose that $4.70.

None of us can afford to lose our democracy.

The world cannot afford for us to lose our democracy.

Watch.

(And if you can, help.)

"Capital is dead labor, which, vampire-like, lives only by sucking living labor, and lives the more, the more labor it sucks. --Karl Marx Capital as such is not evil; it is its wrong use that is evil. Capital in some form or other will always be needed. -- Gandhi"
