If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

“The United States is cutting off the kind of foreign aid that keeps children alive for 12 cents a day, but it’s willing to invest far larger sums in a dubious effort to prop up a distant economy — while effectively subsidizing tycoons who made bad investments,” Nicholas Kristof writes.

we should all go out on October 18 and it's good that so many of us are planning to. but we should all start talking to each other about what we're going to do next, too - what we will withhold together if the abuses continue. we can go on offense, too!

The other day, I remember Pete quoted Roberto Unger.

Pete said:

"'Hope is more the consequence of action than its cause.' It's my responsibility to find the actions that will lead to hope."

The lack of discipline and professionalism is widespread, well-documented and out of control.

Anyone who’s ever carried a weapon professionally in America knows it.

This is the culture of toxic leadership, low standards and lack of training. And it’s getting bigger and worse fast.🚨🇺🇸
