Some know me as Mr. Sulu from Star Trek but I hope all know me as a believer in, and a fighter for, the equality and dignity of all human beings.

    A “president” who cuts taxes for his pals in the 1% but freezes even cost of living increases for 2.1 million federal workers does not deserve anything but our utter contempt. Oh, and in his case, prison.

        And you. His pals, and you, are in the 1%. And 3.5 million other Americans. Oh — and taxes were also cut for all other Americans who pay taxes.

        Respectfully, I did not ask for my taxes to be cut. They shouldn’t have been, if the result is a budget that can’t support our federal workers. I have pledged to donate far more than my tax cut to charity, including to the Japanese American National Museum.

        Orrin, while there may be a significant number of people in the 1% indifferent to the suffering of the 99%, not _all_ people in the 1% can be considered indifferent to this suffering.

        Perhaps in a manner of speaking, Tim. But to be fair, I’d also have to say that #NotAllNinetyNinePerCenters are suffering. [PS - this graphic is NOT directed at you, whatever percent you belong to. For illustration purposes only.]pic.twitter.com/nGVWTFlRU9

        Some people, like you, get the point, but not all seem to get it or care to get it. I just wish we could all be on the same page... some day.

        Tim, almost 50% of people are below average intelligence. Let that sink in. In a democracy, or even in the world, I don’t believe we’re all meant to be on the same page. As humans, I believe we are meant to be aware of and responsible for our thoughts, feelings and actions.

        I highly recommend this book if you’d like to accumulate some useful knowledge. [I also possess the other kind in spades.] One of the best books I’ve ever read on this mystery of being human, and I’ve read many.https://untetheredsoul.com/

        Many developed countries in the west pay more taxes and enjoy a higher standard of life. Better roads, safer streets, higher quality of education, better healthcare, less poverty. World wide studies confirm this. Big difference every time I cross the border at NY-Mich-Ont.
