334. Your obviously formidable grasp of political history and persuasive power

Wed Jun 10, 2015, 11:01 AM

Jun 2015

with language leave me feeling like a grammar school brat, and not meaning that tongue-in-cheek. Even if I'd like to present an opposing view, I can't dismiss your counterpoints because my knowledge is not as deep as your own, and I'm not as good with words.

Suffice it to say that I consider myself a 'liberal capitalist', and I support capitalism, but with a very strong FDR-style of national government, strict checks on corporate behavior, protections for workers ... as I think about it, I'd like our government and society to more resemble some of the European states like France or Norway.

On a personal note, I apologize for anything I've posted recently that comes off as snarky. Not sure what's up with me - I liked skip and maybe the board drama here about his PPR has thrown everyone for a loop? Who knows.

Cheers.
