I think Nader and others complaints about similarities in the way the Dems and the Reps do business probably have merit. But in a democracy, one has to have a working majority. So, while I agree with some of his charges, I don't agree with his methods.
We've been having a redistribution of wealth. The ratio between the top earners and the bottom ones has steadily increased over the years of trickle-down economics. And what we have is trickle-down economic disaster. I could do with a halt to that redistribution of wealth. :-} And rotted fabric in the golden parachutes.
And, yes, everyone should have access to reasonable health care. I foresee some difficulty in defining what is "reasonable" and who is "everyone".
Anyway, enough sputtering about politics. There has been a nice meme going around of people dredging up good pictures. It has been a relief to see those.
And I do hope to participate in your great question series. There was one on Chalion recently, and I had just been re-reading it, but it came at a bad time. Skipping ahead a bit, I wonder if Ingrey's wolf was so well prepared that it could leave without aid of a shaman? It was a very special wolf. Of course, we have Ijada to think about. Actuarial tables are against her going before Ingrey unless she has childbirth complications, and I hate to wish that on her . . .
