The vast majority of people in the world are good and decent individuals trying their best to survive and to take care of those around them. The role of government should be to make it easier for them to do so.

People are smart, it’s just that a lot of people are intellectually lazy. If something I write sends someone to the dictionary then that’s a good thing.

Our authoritarian threat is an opportunistic infection; it couldn’t have taken hold if the body politic wasn’t already weak. A newly aroused sense of citizenship is our immune system, with tens of millions of people investing time & effort in electing a different kind of leader.

So proud to have endorsed Adam Christiansen, who will be the youngest person ever to serve in Congress. He is exactly the kind of candidate who we need to get behind in order to turn this country around.
I'm a 26 Y/O progressive entrepreneur and my day job is catching FRAUD. My generation has been forced into politics because our entire world is fraudulent. We've been told that all we can hope for is survival. I don't accept that! Teaser from my interview with @ActionNewsJax

Going back-and-forth in my mind between nuclear bombs and animal factory farming. I guess I’d have to start with nuclear bombs.

Thank you! That’s my point. We should be able to disagree and still be nice to each other.

No I’m not. I’m very clear who gets to appoint the Attorney General, determine the head and directions of other agencies, appoint Supreme Court judges etc.

I’m not courting popularity here, I’m expressing my opinions. It’s called dialogue, not a vote count. If people don’t agree with me that’s obviously their right but vicious attacks on people for the simple fact that they have the audacity not to agree with us is beneath us all.
