This "new thing" - Democratic Socialism, or whatever somebody wants to call it - it isn't far left or radical. It's not even new.

It's central to what being an American was always supposed to mean.

It's big ideas and lofty goals - like equal rights, a square deal for everybody, no one is above the law, access to the opportunities necessary for living an honorable life. And many more.

For a couple of centuries, Americans have struggled - they've fought and they've bled and they've died - trying to get "all" to mean all.

Who do you suppose is putting those margin dollars in their pockets?

There's nothing more American than being born American, but the next best thing is wanting to become an American, and then becoming an American.

And taking a little license with a short snip attributed to Ronald Reagan:

You can't move to China and become Chinese.

You can't move to Greece and become Greek.

But you can come to America and become an American.

It's one of things that makes this country great.

A.I. Comes Through

I wonder if this is when MAGA really starts to turn on the Tech Bro Plutocrats, or will it just prompt a more adamant Luddite reflex.

The Why Of CBS

Rich is kinda telling us what we already know, but as usual, he's got a couple of extra points to put on it.

Today's Rich

Plutocratic Technocracy.

Whatever we end up calling it, I think we are beginning to get hip to their tricks.
