Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Tell Us What You Really Think...

Americans don't seem to care for Donald Trump.

As usual, men - especially white ones - are hanging with the ignorant blowhard.  My favorite number is this one: by 59%-37%, Americans believe Trump is dishonest.  That means that 37% of Americans think that a man who couldn't pass a fact check on the color of the sky is in fact honest. 

The decline of America will be traced to the decline in understanding of objective reality.
