The Way Things Ought To Be

Many of the things we do, today, are just plain stupid....which is "no no" language in good writing...but we do things that are inefficient-don't work- and in some cases are downright destructive to our civil order--and we seem to lack logic in looking for solutions, -or are just incapable of doing things differently...so we cling to the status quo. As a result, I find myself using lots of exclamation marks in my frustration. Let me give an example: I would like to write this like I was writing to President Obama, today-post presidency-and in the hopes that he is actually reading it....President Obama: Most of your presidency was a real credit to America-and anyone with an IQ above 3 knows that Trump is a racist idiot-which sums up the ignorance of his comments about your presidency! But there is one area where you and the Democrats made a huge blunder-a blunder that was not only a loss to the American people-but put a cloud over your administration that you were never really able to shake...and cost you dearly, politically! Specifically, you had a golden opportunity to fix unemployment [hereafter UE]-and you let the opportunity slip away--didn't fix it! When the Democrats held majorities in Congress and the White House-and full support of the America people-the honeymoon-the first 6 months, give or take, you had the opportunity to fully implement Pro-Market Humphrey-Hawkins-[hereafter HH--15 USC § 3101]--the most important legislation passed in the 20th Century-and it would have ended our unemployment crisis! Indeed, when I saw you going down the antiquated and unworkable "fix the market, and that will fix UE"-rather than the other way around-I thought "Oh no"-the Democrats don't get it-and as expected the 2010 election caught up with the error and filled the House with lunatics-which hounded you the rest of your presidency....In fact, HH becomes more and more important with each passing year in our 21st Century market economy-with the proliferation of robots, alone!
