Politics, the machinations of which politicians got which powers, and not economics, the material well-being of the citizenry, were once again the order of the day. - Dylan Stevenson
That statement right there pretty much sums up the guiding principles and basic conflict of how the world operates.
The quote is from a post Dylan Stevenson wrote about 19th Century France which is kind of interesting because I basically wasn't aware of anything going on in France during the 19th Century. There was Napoleon about 1800, and then a hundred years later we had WW1. In between was just a big blank.
Meanwhile back on the ranch, people in Shasta County, California are rebelling against the COVID-19 lockdown. Good for them! Once again political bullshit versus food on the table.

Might makes right. Majority rules. Exactly what the Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution to prevent. I feel sorry for the minority who suffer because they were forced to go along.
