A Perspective on politics. The model of life for most
adults is employment and the workplace.
To use this approach one notes there is the labor and there is the
management. The boss drives a nice
car. Labor wonders about the price of
operating the vital transportation.
The boss is the Republican and labor is Democrat. The accounting and
engineering departments often side with management. To many people the view on
a range of personal issues dictates the voters’ response. Bosses hate being told what
to do by anyone including government.
The government regulations tell the bosses what to do. Workers don’t mind regulations if it
requires the boss to give rest periods and benefits. So to many basic workers it
depends on the financial issues of the day. The issue of war and
security and not education and human services define what will happen next. As explained below the
single issue voters will not leave the party. New Politicians get seated
in January 2023 The democrats now control
only one house of government and the White House. The president can’t push spending
legislation through. Mike Johnson is the new
Speaker of the House Many wonder will Political Wagering The nature of a democracy
and a two party system inherently breeds contempt. If it were a gambling hall
each candidate begins by wagering with “Chips” on an issue. For Example: Trump chipped oil and gas while Biden
chipped “clean energy. “ People’s lives and way of life depend on the support
of the government. So if the question
arises, “Do Americans have deep divisions?”
The answer will always be true.
Off shore oil costs billions and the setups are real today. Any regulation or change harms the
profit. Can you think of other
“Chips?” |
---News--- In the grand theater of
political debates, where candidates pirouette around tough questions with the
grace of a ballet dancer avoiding puddles, it's always a spectacle to see
what warms their hearts—or at least their talking points. One candidate might
light up like a pinball machine over fiscal policies, their excitement
bubbling over like a pot of gold at the end of a capitalist rainbow.
Meanwhile, their opponent, channeling the spirit of the 60s, might be all
about peace, love, and patchouli oil, advocating for a world where care bears
might actually have a shot at running the government. It's a dance as old as
time: money versus mercy, bullets versus bouquets. And as the audience, we're
left wondering if we're watching a debate or the world's most intense game of
'hot potato.' The Call to Serve: Why Military-Aged
Individuals Should Embrace the Democratic Process Multi-Tasking and
candidates. At the age of 80, males may
experience changes in their ability to multitask. Research suggests that
multitasking can affect brain health, leading to increased distractibility
and a higher propensity for errors. It's noted that our brains are not
designed for multitasking but rather for focusing on one task at a time. This
becomes particularly relevant as we age, since the cognitive load of
multitasking can lead to temporary increases in stress levels, which in turn
can raise blood pressure and heart rate, potentially affecting overall
health. Additionally, studies have shown that older adults may have more
difficulty switching between tasks, which is a key component of multitasking.
This could be due to age-related changes in brain function, affecting
short-term memory and attention. It's also observed that after a certain age,
there is an increase in the number of brain areas activated during
multitasking, indicating a possible decrease in cognitive efficiency.
Therefore, it's important for older males to be mindful of these changes and
to manage their multitasking habits accordingly to maintain cognitive health. The heart of democracy beats
with the participation of its citizens. For those of military service age,
engaging in the democratic process is not just a right; it's a profound way
to honor the very principles they stand for. Here's why your voice and vote
are indispensable: 1. **Defend Democracy**:
Just as service members defend the nation, participating in elections defends
the democratic process itself. Your vote is a sentinel of freedom. 2. **Shape Policy**:
Decisions made by elected officials directly affect military funding,
missions, and veterans' benefits. Voting is your chance to influence these
critical issues. 3. **Lead by Example**:
Military-aged individuals can set a powerful example for others, showing that
civic duty extends beyond service in uniform. 4. **Be Heard**: Democracy
thrives on diverse voices. Your unique perspectives as someone of service age
enrich the national conversation. 5. **Secure the Future**:
Voting impacts the future direction of the country. It's a way to ensure that
the nation you might defend is one that reflects your values. Your engagement in the
democratic process is a continuation of the commitment to service. It's a
call to action that resonates with the values of duty, honor, and country.
So, let your voice be heard, for democracy's strength is in its participants.
Let's all do our part. Joe Biden unified the
diverse sections of the American electorate to win a hard fought presidential
election. The hard working background
contrasted well with the life of privilege that President Donald J. Trump ran
on. Risking billions of dollars is
hard work to many. The virus handling
issue and the economic slowdown bogged down the Republican Party. A perception the Washington and the
president himself dodged was the truth issues. Wishing away the virus must work for some but
the dogged American essential workers had none of it. For the “Off the wall” Welcome to the President
Trump Era. Donald J. Trump is a “White
Man” I don’t think he would argue with you. Bush was a Texan, I would tell him in
discussing a city I love Its mostly the drug culture
that brings the guns. Many states have
legalized Marijuana Trump wants a crack down. Crackdowns bring more in
protection money and that means guns. Politics and democracy are
about the common good. Bad people use
drugs and guns and shoot one another.

matters worse or create unlivable situations. Were we hacked by the
