THE SAD TRUTH

After the tragedy in Las Vegas, stock markets reported that stocks of gun manufacturers ROSE.

This is because the propaganda around gun sales results in people buying more guns every time you pass gun restrictions. Plus the fact that the US is awash with guns.

We need to put our energy into where it is the most effective.

Before we again try to tackle the gun problem, we need to solve health care and get rid of prohibition.

More people die from lack of health care than die from guns. We could afford more health care if we used visiting nurses to provide health care for the severely disabled. Many are in such pain that a doctor visit is torture for both them and their caretakers.

Almost all of the street violence is caused by prohibition. Take all recreational drugs off the DEA schedules and the violence will go down. It is unlikely that Sessions will do this as he owes his career to irrational, illogical and prejudicial policy towards blacks and browns.

I am extremely tired of even California thinking that a benign healing herb is a scourge on the universe.

Much of this is coming from stay at home mothers who are very easy to frighten with horror stories of addiction. Too many people still believe propaganda lies from 60 years ago.

BTW, algorithms are actually quite stupid. They can be reverse engineered so that Russian trolls can still mess with our news.

REAL PEOPLE, and professional advertizing agencies are needed to make and post ads that are not propaganda. Choosing the news feeds with real news, stopping the fake news, must be done by REAL PEOPLE.

You are all using math to substitute for human intelligence. I liked Spock also, but even Spock admitted that human emotions required solutions from humans.
