What Judge Thomas Said

 Noticed this today.....Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas made a comment about the protest crowd....that they won't influence outcomes.

Then he says something to the degree...."that society has become addicted to wanting particular outcomes."

I sat for a while thinking about it, and he's mostly right about this.

For maybe forty years, there's been some trend building up.  I'd say since 2008....it's doubled in nature.  But this was also a trend readily noted in the 1850s, prior to the Civil War.....where two side anticipated a outcome that the President, nor Congress, or the Supreme Court....could not deliver.

There are probably ten different accelerators to civil conflict/war, and this addition of outcomes is just one of the ten. 

The funny thing is that we've even dragged teenagers into the midst of this, and various ethnic groups.  

Just Observations

 1.  Rumor has it (Daily Mail) that Elon will 'let-go' of 1,000 Twitter employees, charge $3 a month if you want total access, and cut advertising.....as he takes over.

Personally I agree....but I'd move the company out of California, and would charge hefty-comment-people a $15 a month fee if you go past 100 comments.

2.  Senator Rand Paul is pushing for some type of legislation that would halt tracking of Americans via their cellphones.  

Personally, I'd push to give people the chance to duplicate their location, by the dozens....on a minute-by-minute basis.  If they thought you were on the beach....you'd also show up in Paris, some nightclub in Montreal, and in a zoo in San Diego.  This might make things real interesting.

3.  I noticed Senator Manchin spoke up and said the number one political topic in America is inflation....NOT abortion.  I tend to agree with him. If the spiral doesn't slow down.....total chaos will reign.  Just to note....CNN did a poll and 2-percent of people said Biden's efforts on the economy are 'great'.
