GOOD NEWS! …and then some…

Something nice to consider, for a change.

———————————————————————

…AND NOW – BACK TO IT::

  • WEALTH:  There are more billionaires in the United States than ever. Over 760 of them.  When does the Trickle Down begin?
  • ANOTHER COMING?:  A baby shark was mysteriously born in an aquarium in Louisiana several days ago.  The thing is there was no male shark around to have been involved as a father.  Is this a miracle?   What does this mean?  Where will it go to the bathroom? Are the Religious showing up like the Three Kings did??  Now that Americans are afraid to leave the country, (see paragraph below) will they go to the Louisiana Aquarium, instead, in hopes of being saved by the Holy Shark?.  Strange times.
  • RE-ENTRY?: More Americans are ‘Staycationing’ at home, instead of Touring Abroad.  A reason for this is:  Some of them are worried about  possible re-entry issues because they might get asked questions by Passport Control on their way back.  They might be asked,”What do you think about the President of the United States?”  (Two weeks ago a Canadian couple was asked this question and the wife said “I’m glad he’s not our President” – and then she was turned away and told she could not enter for 5 years.)  Maybe, the next person to be asked might be an American.  Any way, I have come up with an answer that might help facilitate your re-entry.  Say something like, “I just don’t know where he gets all that energy from to do the stuff he wants to do.” If you think you are on a roll, you might add  “I sure would like to play a round of golf with him.”   P.S. I suggest when re-entering: You not wear a baseball cap promoting the letter “P”, even though you might be a Pittsburg Steelers’ or an Philadelphia Eagles’  fan.  The guards, could assume the “P” stands for Palestine and fear you are  conducting a treasonous protest against our Foreign Affairs’ policies.  Just saying.

That’s it for the week. And a fond “Hello” To Ted…Wherever you are.

  1. There are significantly more millionaires and significantly more folks with $100,000 in net worth than ever before in history. Home ownership in terms number of owners has increased by 10-fold from 1950. More households have a car today than ever before in our history. More households are invested in the stock market than ever before in our history. The median income has gone up considerably since 1950. The average American worker enjoys the greatest prosperity in history with more access to healthcare, education and other social goods than ever before in history. Do not believe the lie that they have told you. Does poverty exist? Yes! Can we live in a more equal & fair society? YES! Does a rising tide lift all boats? YES!
