Just musing....Wouldn't been cheaper if someone had just bought Trump a big box of army soldiers to play with in the East Room istead of this confounded birthday march?

WoW! Today we are liberated from sound fiscal policy, common sense, and international cooperation. I am thrilled to death!

I've seen memes that frame what is going on as "the Billionaires vs. the Middle Class." Let us not forget the workers who staff the nursing facilities, roof our houses, pour the concrete, pick the produce and milk the dairy herds. They stand to bear more of the brunt of the proposed cuts.

Its the 1% against everyone else not just the middle class.

I am extremely proud of my Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin for the concise, on target rebuttal to Trump's address last night. I recommend you hear her out....https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/elissa-slotkin-trump-speech-democratic-response-congress-rcna194088

I did an event in IN a few weeks ago where I said that on 1/6/21 Mike Pence saved the country (for now) by being one of very very few who stood by his principles under maximum threat.

It is an easy thing to go to a firms website and search for its corporate principles. If none are posted that says something.

For years I have invested in socially responsible funds. It would seem that many firms place a higher premioum on the bottom line that ethical practice. I am committed to shopping only to firms that value the common good and the environment.
