God save our souls. I don't believe in metaphor The way I say is what's in store Right or wrong history is past And helps to show my lack of class. The dollar mine is what I wear And those with equal value share A family crypt made of gold While suffering is for young and old. The uniformed come and go Our young die because they're' told Protect freedom at all cost Unforgiving ways profit loss. The world is but a resting place That cares for the human race All the others man and beast Will be here to the end of feast. -->

Freedom

Untethered growth from rich soil. Swaying in the open air.  Otherwise this is a palm tree, blue sky, clouds.  In times like these description may diminish the outcome, or the vision. So ignore the verbiage and just enjoy the view. Its up to you.

The undeniable economic equation has variables

Image
--> All presidents face a dilemma regarding the economy. They are judged in large part according to how wages, jobs, and retirement nest eggs perform on their watch. Yet they have little control over that performance.  Growth, ultimately, is determined by long-term (and in some cases mysterious) factors: demographic trends, business innovation and technological progress, the education level of the workforce. Under the right circumstances, some measures—tax cuts, government spending—can boost growth, at least for a while. But for the most part, presidents cannot quickly influence the deeper elements that govern growth. Source the atlantic.com   SEBASTIAN MALLABY Photo    blogger     downtown chicago

Life and poetry We live our words

Image
The poet's joke You say gray, and what of black You say white, and what of gray Never the way of knowing is neither It matters only the moment of meter Born in Chicago Illinois, raised in Tampa (above downtown picture), lived St.Petersburg for thirty years.  A family is where ever you choose to live.  Is one place safer than the next?  Maybe, because children seek out friends they feel most accepted by - usually images of themselves.

US vs Russia

In what ways is Russia better than the United States? Peter Potnin Works at Microsoft Studied at National Research Nuclear University "MEPhI" Lives in Seattle, WA 453.5k answer views 27.8k this month Turn On Notifications Peter Potnin , born and lived in Russia for 24 years Updated Sep 5, 2016 As a Russian native who has moved to the US recently I feel like I have something to share, too. OMG INTERNET , PEOPLE! In Russia there’s such a plurality of ISPs that it’s not uncommon to have 3–4 providers to choose from in a given apartment building. For this and other reasons the prices are much lower – $9 for 100Mbps in Moscow compared to $65 for 25Mbps in my Seattle apartment (Comcast only). Come on! The same goes for cell phone service – cheaper and better in Russia, at least in the cities. Banks . I have found the ones in Russia to generally have superior online banking tools

Hear Ye

Anyone can write poetry, philosophers and kings Who can write the words that say, listen to what I mean That interest young and old, blind and deaf as well Propel them to the stars, or to the depths of hell. Savant you say, he means no harm while wid'ling away Both time, truth and sanctity hard earned by all each day This message clear to anyone when lofty words do prey On man both fool and king, enlightened and dismayed.
