  • Fair. And I see a lot of ‘why are the dems bothering to do action A, B, or C, when it won’t go anywhere?’ but with no thought as to what they could or should actually do. If the dems act, I see criticism, and if the dems don’t act I see criticism, all without any actual ‘hey, what if they did THIS’. Maybe you see the same thing, in conversations with folx, ‘dang this sux, dang that is intolerable’ but for me those conversations that don’t lead anywhere are incredibly demoralizing. I can’t just leave it hanging with ‘well gee willikers I guess there’s nothing to be done.’ It’s dysfunctional, demotivating, and depressing. So I’d rather my reps, who I’m paying good money to do something, actually try to do something.







  • Cool, you have access to the same numbers. How would you make a comparison that makes sense of this oft repeated ‘apples to organges’ meme?

    Would you be more comfortable if we compared 1920-1950 for gulags, and US prisons? Or how about just a point in time for the USA and world prisons. OH wait, I already provided you with that with the second reference. What would make y’all happy?
