The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

The Four Classes of America


For John, BLUFPresident Trump is a disrupted.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




From The Orange County Register by Mr Joel Kotkin, 20 July 2019.

Here is the lede plus one:

America’s electorate in 2020 has been dissected by race, region, cultural attitudes and gender.  But the most important division may well be, in a nation that has become profoundly unequal, along class lines.  All politicians, from Donald Trump to Elizabeth Warren, portray themselves as “fighting for the middle class” and “working families.”

Yet our increasingly neo-feudal America is best broken down into four broad groups — the oligarchs, the clerisy, the yeomanry and the serfs.  The oligarchs dominate the economic realm, including control of information media.  Below them are sometimes allied members of the clerisy, the well-educated middle class who set the country’s intellectual and cultural context.

This is a better way of looking at the eectorate.
