Quick post, 9.30.15

This quick post stuff is born out of the lack of time, like so many things on this blog.  This is offered only as an explanation, it's not a complaint.

Anyway, I was scanning Memorandum, the place to go for all the BS news about politics, which itself is nothing more than the art of BS.

It is necessary though, because one has to keep up with events.  Politics is necessary too, because somebody has got to do it.

The thing that struck me shouldn't be a surprise.  Nothing in this campaign will address what's really wrong.  Maybe that is so because it can't.  "The mind that created the problem cannot be the mind that solves it."---Albert Einstein said that.

Ronald Reagan said that the government isn't the solution, government is the problem.  In my opinion, the politicians are a problem, that's for sure.  None of them are capable of dealing with the problems, but they sure are capable of creating them.  Even if you find one capable, nobody would pay attention to that person.  How do you get votes if you bore people?  People are bored with truth and with goodness.  They want to be entertained and want to have fun.

But what happens when the joy ride is over?  Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

You have to pick up the pieces.  More fun.  /sarc
