How can we coexist when one of our neighbors is trying to kill us? That is the trillion dollar question.

There are times and places where coexistence in peace is the norm. Wisdom is what gets us there.

World Peace is the path to prosperity and greatness. That would be a glorious trip.

Has Donald Trump gone overboard with his comments about his fellow candidates? Such outbursts are out of my nature, I prefer a modicum of civility. However all that Trump dishes out will be mild when compared to what the liberal press will dish out during the general election. Election Boot Camp.

Looks like the choice for the election will be for less carbon, or more wall. Actually that is a bit over simplified, though it is the way it is shaping up, for now. If we could only build a wall of carbon, every body would be happy. Everybody happy? That will never happen, sorry.

Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

My deepest sympathies to the people of Paris. It is my greatest wish that all parties come together to defeat the scourge of terrorism.

The last time I watched a complete presidential debate I was sitting in a Alvar Aalto Tank chair. That debate was between Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan. That debate shaped my views for many years. Thanks to a number of invitations from Donald Trump and his staff, I attended a local debate watching party. I had a blast. My thanks to all that put it on. Donald was reserved but insistent on following the rules of law when it comes to immigration. Ben was extremely eloquent when he came to expressing his views. John was the bully of the evening, however he seemed to have the best grasp of economics. Unfortunately he had the tendency to make  his best points after the bell. Carly once again had a lot to say about taxes. Jeb was his usual thoughtful and polite self.  As a welder, I really beg to differ on Morcos view of welders wages. I would really like to make the wages of a philosopher. Maybe that is why I am doing this blog?

I have to say I agreed with most of what was said. When it came to the finer points of disagreements between the candidates, I enjoyed the split screen. My favorite question about wealth inequality went unanswered. That would be the difference between the capital gains rate and the income rate. Essentially, people that make their money from paper gains pay less of a rate than people that work for their income.

Not much civility in politics it seems. I guess our system is like the House of Commons. Of course you do not get on Saturday Night Live with civil discourse. Additionally Bubba does not like the label “Hate”. Bubba don’t hate.  As far as MUD slinging, see my previous definition of MUD.

Donald Trump will mow down the Politicians  and create a level playing field. IMHO

Well that is the analogy that  I am using, This particular mower would do any bubba proud. It is a recently acquired Toro 455D. It is about twenty years old and most recently spent time on a golf course near the coast that started growing condos. The best part, it has a ten and a half foot cutting swath. A real powerhouse, just like Donald Trump. Well actually Donald probably has a much finer fleet of much newer machines. That is why I am a Bubba and he is the Trump.

/Cheers

Bubba is not usually bombastic, though I might occasionally stir the pot for thought.
