You'll not see a more enlightening interview than this one.

Then INCREASE TAXES FOR THE WEALTHY. Problem solved. Stop making working people pay for roads, courts and the military.

MAKE WEALTHY PEOPLE PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE OF THE COSTS, SINCE THEY'RE GETTING ALL OF THE REWARDS.

It is sad that you think only the wealthy are happy.

If you live in America and are low-income, it is nearly always because of choices you made along the way. If you chose to goof off in school, to never develop skills that allow you to demand higher pay, and did not have the energy to start your own business, you will likely not make a lot of money.

But you had the benefit of leisure, and people on welfare have the most leisure of all. Financially successful people look forward to a once or twice a year vacation, working long hours during the other 51 or 50 weeks per year. If you are a welfare dolee, you have that leisure time 52 weeks per year.

According to recent studies, NOBODY in the USA is happy. You're the most unhappy first world population out there, and Trump is the guy who's making you miserable. You're like an abused wife. He's convinced you that without him, you're nothing.

Trump has alienated your allies, and cozied up to the people like Putin and Xi, who want to see you destroyed. Abusers isolate you from friends and families who would help you escape his grasp.

He's destroying your economy and frightening your biggest customers away. Why are you still with this guy???

Democrats have been so miserable about Trump for the last ten years, that it does bring down our average happiness.

Click the arrow in the center of the page to hear the interview with Michael Lewis on his new book, "Who is Government." It puts a human face on our public servants. While doing so explaining the types of essential, thankless work many are doing.
A word of caution for Musk fans. It does not put him in a good light.

If you're down to doing PR spots for government bureaucrats, you're well and truly fucked.

Indeed, when liberals and Democrats are suffering they want to make everyone else suffer too...moreover they want to use mass media and social media to hypnotize you to believe that it's because of YOUR choices, not because of THEIR whining!

That is all the Democrats have now. Just spin spin spin....

The strongest determinant of your socioeconomic status is the socioeconomic status of your parents. That would suggest it’s not entirely about choices you make but mostly who you’re born to.

Cutting spending would be easier and better.

 

[BlackSand]

That's where you lost me. Why is it so many beliefs entertained by the Right are abject nutbaggery?

.

Because the Establishment is both Republicans and Democrats ...
And they just have you peons fighting each other ... Over your desire for nutbaggery ...
So you never recognize they are the working together ...
While promoting the idea that either side can protect you from 'them' ...

....

And that has working amazingly well on you ...

I will take an interview conducted by an MSNBC partisan as seriously as those on the left would take one conducted by a FOX partisan.

All thinking people have. He's a rapist, a tax fraud, a traitor, a thief of classified docs, a thief of charitable donations, a business fraud, an adulterer, a pathological liar, an admirer of despots, and an aspiring autocrat. So there's that.

 

[BluesLegend]

The unwarranted contempt conservatives have for Federal workers is one reason why Republicans are incapable of sound, responsible governance.

Look half of those deadbeat taxpayer sponges need to go find a real job and pay some real taxes and stop mooching off me!

LOL. There is nothing enlightening about anything on MSNBC.

We already pay multiple times our 'fair share' you mooching sponge losers. Also, Canada's PM is gay as hell.

Nobody has suggested many folks employed by the Govt are good, fine, hard working people....the issue is we employee too many people.

The fact you can't grasp that is the problem, there are too many dembots that can't actually think about what the discussion is about, and fall for propagandist at MSDNC

I stopped at all in with chris hayes. Won't waste time on liberal rag garbage.

That uninformed attitude is just what Lewis's book shatters. But if you choose to remain ignorant it's up to you.

Keeping your head buried in the sand is no way to go through life. Challenge your beliefs. It's the only way to grow intellectually.
