I love david Simon and share a lot of his ideas, especially his thoughts on class divide as it relates to the application of criminal law. I think he's right, there is so much money in politics now that the legislature is essentially dead with no chance of repair due to the fact that those who broke it have gerrymandered and passed laws to ensure it stays broken. It's a sad situation America has gotten itself in to

Thanks for sharing, peace.
I'm retired and this is the worst travesty of ALL time. What happened? It's absolutely amazing how good things would be with out money getting in the way.
Rupert Murdoch is all in on this btw. Paul Verhoeven's "Starship Troopers" put this idea into prophetic motion. Teachers telling pushing people into serving in the Military and using bad Nietzsche to bolster their arguments lol Tell me he didn't see this one coming back then. Same with Robocop lol Getting to be a Robocop world out there [gahhhhhhhhhhh].

Even wolves in a pack will try to take care of the elderly and sick wolves to the best of their ability. While traveling, the slowest wolf goes first and sets the pace for the pack. The sick and elderly are not left behind and the male /female alpha wolf walks in the back and brings up the rear. Are we less caring than wolves?
@The truth hurts i will have to agree with you there.
I’m willing to pick up that brick at this point.
Like Omar said paraphrasing.........money isn't owning dawg, it is the spending.
Sisyphus indeed... Picking up a brick - reminds me of lyrics in "Lives In The Balance" by Jackson Browne
All these political videos on RUclips, with both sides saying what's wrong, who's to blame and sometimes this is how you fix it have maybe a 50 million views all combined, 1 Drake song or Just Bieber song have more than a billion........... people don't care. They really don't.
Term limits would help
who's no't greedy?...the baker does not wake up at 4am in the morning for the health of bread eaters
The Baker supplies a product to the bread eater for an agreed price. That's not greed that's commerce, that's life.

KOCH ROACH BROTHERS WANT TO OWN AMERICA !!! VOTE FOR SENATOR SANDERS
If you think you cant, Illl agree. And if you think you can, Ill agree. Guess what? Y O U C A N ! =-)
Why now? It was you that made the suggestion to meet and then actually did not want to in a way that appeared to have been lifted from "Brief Interviews with Horrible Men.' This seems screwy somehow. I will have to think about it. That doesn't sound like an invitation..."You can meet me." No thanks. Thanks anyways. :)
If you invite me, I will visit. I still haven't seen an invitation. You are still here. :)
One bromide after another from David Simon. Yawn.
Then don't watch. Yawn.
