Consider me a 'journalist' reporting on how things were. I have no desire to return to those times.

Neither does Trump want a return to those times or to any time which sees unity among US citizens. He is obsessed with division, his reelection depends on it.

What I am mainly concerned with is the vast economic chasm between the rich and working class that was not there during the time on which I was reporting.

I object to fortunes that separate us so dramatically acquired by persons who simply provided the next step in a series of steps made by others since the beginning of our species.

Who can be the richest has become a cynical game reflecting the transition from simple satisfaction of providing for the future to pure unadulterated greed.

Too many people suffer, here and around the world, because the obsessed few grow fearful that their billions could disappear into absolutely unacceptable millions bordering on what they see as poverty.

Too, I see nothing but good when one spouse is able to stay home with the kids until those kids are given the nurture they require for a healthy adolescence and productive adulthood.

Trump isn't just a lousy president, he's a lousy human being who, unfortunately. reflects a childhood with which he had little to do in forming the adult he has become.
