When you cannot make up your mind
which of two evenly balanced courses of action you should take
choose the bolder.

You should ask for the wisdom of economic literacy, knowing that in serving mankind through the markets, you do that; success is a bonus.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 11, 2017
I would make Election Day 2016 Groundhog Day until the left-fascists finally learned their lesson.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 11, 2017
I agree. Pigs, lambs, and deer are quite tasty, too.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 11, 2017
How exactly do cows object to rape? Do two "moos" mean no? How did cow rape become an issue?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 11, 2017

QOTD: Americans do not like to admit that they live in a system that is most accurately characterized as participatory fascism. - R. Higgs— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 12, 2017
Participatory fascism vests voters in elitists; nominal property rights enable some growth and provide a scapegoat.https://t.co/SK9p3oiXHR— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 12, 2017
The left-fascists still don't get why the lack of competition and cost escalation in the healthcare sector are consequences of govt policy.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 12, 2017

Wikipedia and others describe left-fascism from a more Marxist critique. I tend to refer to State controls towards social welfare goals.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 12, 2017

Musical Interlude: My Favorite Vocalists
Neil Diamond, "Morning Has Broken". We are going to close my Diamond retrospective with 3 tunes that are not among his most commercially successful tunes but I love, starting with his take of a traditional Protestant tune Cat Stevens popularized. Neil's trademark baritone and the spectacular choir backing make Neil's performance compelling--my favorite take on the song.
