I know that we have committed, since beginning to post again this year, that we will not discuss the new religious movement known as "politics". However, we wanted to get something on record. Too many times we discuss things and there is no record of it. Thoughts in our heads or discussed over pints are not enough to be held to account or used as evidence for either being woefully out of touch or in sync with the vibrations of western society today. It also gives us a chance to test, on the record, sweeping statements that are hypothesized based on historical and economic underpinnings, which we think are highly misunderstood by all of today's media that purport to be pumping out the "facts".
