My Humble Thoughs On:

 Voter ID?  Look....I suspect this...if you mandate the ID and force people to re-accomplish registration...across the fifty states....around 50-percent of registered voters will disappear (more so in California than any other state). How would you go and explain this?

People unhinged/upset over use of words?  Look....if you are that childish in nature, then you ought to hook up to some Amazon tribal folks, and just find some group with 1,600 total words.  Live a simple life....boil lizards...and stare at stars an hour every evening.

News content?  If you write mostly BS, or stuff that people aren't accepting....you need to prepare for a 2nd career.

Life skills?  Around the 8th grade....there ought to be two hours a day on cooking, repairing, banking, etc....skills that you need in real life.

Trump giving a UFO's exist speech?  Some people will believe it....some will be on a TDS-frenzy and refuse to believe it.  We will end up with UFO-DS being a new problem.

Addictive Story

 This AM....I read through a research piece briefly....this paper by Milbank Quarterly suggests that soda and sweets are designed to be addictive, in some odd way....copies the tobacco industry tactics.

My wife (the German health nut) has believed this for 30-odd years.

Up until 2010....I was a two-to-three soda a day consumer.  Since then....I might drink a Pepsi or  Coke three times a year....mostly at airports.

On a addictive scale....some are pretty high up, and then you have Tab, Sprite, and 7-Up....which I tend to see as zero on being addictive.
