The level of misinformation, and just plain making shit up, is staggering. It’s sad that some follow blindly. Funny that I heard yesterday, hell maybe it was here, that the most googled phrase over the last week is “ what is a tariff”? If that’s accurate, and I don’t know if it is or isn’t, then we’re in trouble🤪.

I went to a good HS. Graduated in 1966. They always told us that it was in the top 5 academically in the country. I had 0 interest in learning and was a "comportment" problem. I still learned despite myself. I read books, literature, from an early age. I knew how to use a dictionary and an encyclopedia. I Was interested in "Social Studies" but not math. Had high academic achievers for parents. My dad was a phi beta kappa. As 1966 approached my friends and I, tending toward "hippy" did not see where a college degree would have any currency in the new world order. Non the less, I went to college and despite all the things that I had, things that would have been diagnosed and treated today, ADD and Hyper this and hyper that, I knew what a Tariff was and ended up an Airline pilot. The important missing ingredient, the thing that I did not have was internet access. My 36 year old daughter also just missed it. We got her some "brick" of a cell phone in HS "for emergencies" and I remember finally caving and getting "cable" for internet access. She, as an IB (International Baccalauréat) student, could not get her homework and research done on a 56 bit phone modem. So, there ya go. As Marshall McLuhan said "the medium is the message." Look it up trumpers. You've been had. Here's a summary "if it's on the internet it must be true and good." Oh, or "Alternative" non MSM news sources too. PS, My daughter is not only a pretty good orchestra level violinist, but also holds a Phd. in, of all things, Literature. Again trump voters, look it up. It has to do with books and learning.

True, but not the only reason we are up sh-- creek without a paddle.
