I do watch the interviews with Americans by the BBC and others at their elections. The ordinary people who are voters; and the reasons they give for voting the way they do. I object many times to being subject to the ignorance and selfishness of these people. Voting on what happens to them with no…

I Can Only Guess
at how much the banks and businesses are losing to online hacking. My log-ins to ordinary sites have now instituted yet another layer of security and a few people have had the same experience I had, of money being taken through the debit card and neither the police nor the bank fraud department going to…
If Only Teachers …
were allowed teach. The Greeks gave us what we consider to be the foundation of our modern ideas of nations, if not the foundation of nationhood itself being ingrained with some democratic values (they did vote for some stuff). Teaching thought is interesting because as adults they believed in deep discussion and were impressed enough…

It is the extreme end of the way in which politicians and leaders have manipulated public pion over hundreds of years,. The way in Pope’s were hypocrites and monarchs devilish but nothing was…
