It Just Gets Better!

January 29, 2018January 27, 2018

Today: Steven Pinker on Why Progressives Hate Progress.  An upbeat 10 minutes in case you found Friday’s post too depressing.

It shows how things have for decades gotten steadily better even as the headlines have grown more bleak.

Of course, if the last 446 days have shown us anything it’s that progress is not guaranteed.  But Pinker notes that the odds would improve if young people would simply . . . vote.

Quote of the Day

"If a man is called to be a streetsweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted or Beethoven composed music or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, 'Here lived a great streetsweeper who did his job well.'"

Martin Luther King, Jr.
