2018-03-18 Dissatisfaction

From FB group Orange Talk Halo Mike There is a point where F.U.D. about life threatening situations transcends politics and becomes a national movement. This is what happened during the Viet Nam War era when students and many others protested. You’re too young to have first hand knowledge of that, but what you’re seeing right

2018-03-05 Grownups Don’t Act Grown-up

From FB group Orange Talk Art Rosen said, “The state of this group is really sad. I joined another group for a city where I have a second home. Nobody was name calling or obsessed with being a conservative or a liberal. They spoke of things that bind people together. New restaurants, where to get

2018-03-04 Move To A “Free” State

From FB group Orange Talk I wish at least ten million Californians would take your advice and move to a “free” (red) state, like Texas.  That would change California’s real estate market from a seller’s market to a buyer’s market.  It would change to lower demands for all those things that are overpriced, such as

2018-03-01 What’s Your Least Favorite -Ism?

In reply to people complaining about socialism, etc., ruining the state. I get tired of hearing all the whining on the FB group Orange Talk.  Everyone talks about isms.  Conservatism, Liberalism, Socialism, Populism, and on and on.  Everyone is chronically whining about their least favorite -ism.  They attempt to categorize every person or group into a

2018-01-25 Public Pensions Aren’t The Problem.

From FB group Orange Talk Karl Seppala You are complaining about the wrong group.  First off, the state employees are getting what they are allowed to get.  The pension reform act did away with a lot of the cheaters.  If you don’t like it, the legislature is the ones who can change the laws.  And

2018-01-16 Welfare and Welfare-Mart

From FB group Orange Talk Heidi Norris Dawson Okay, then ‘they’ pack up and move to a different county or state.  Turns out that the country’s biggest private employer, Walmart, or possibly some other retail company, is the only employer with jobs available.  So ‘they’ decide to take out a huge student loan and go

2017-11-22 Don’t Feed Homeless – Don’t Enable Them

From FB group Orange Talk Comment on Thanksgiving Day “Don’t feed the homeless, it just enables them.”  So let me get this straight: “Don’t enable them (homeless)” By not feeding them, they are going to go away?  Go away to  someone else’s neighborhood and steal to get something, like the kid’s bike, so they can

2017-11-14 Closed Minded People And Politics

From FB group thread discussing C. K. refusal to pledge allegiance to the flag. Rich Gallego By your your way of thinking, then almost no one should vote.  Because most of those who think they should vote because they believe they’re informed should also not vote.  They’re just as much MISinformed as they are informed.

2017-10-16 AT&T Breakup

From comments on FB group Bell Telephone.. Ed Vaughn said: That story makes me ill.  Why break what was perhaps the best-run machine in the world? I replied: Why?  Well, it wasn’t the first time AT&T was forced to comply with government’s decisions.  Like you said, it was a machine, and whether or not it
