Is It Thursday Already?

So, the "great" city of Los Angeles has boycotted Arizona. You know? What goes around comes around. It will end up right back on their lap in one form or another. Apparently, Arizona has much more money going to California than CA has coming here, at least according to news reports, if WE pull out, THEY stand to lose. Should we act in kind? You're darn right we should, they want to give some kind of kneejerk reaction related to a hysteria that seems to be sweeping the country, I say let AZ respond back. But that's just me.

There was only one city council-member who voted against, stating that the council really has no business in sticking it's nose into another STATE'S legal actions. Really? One person with an actual brain functioning on it's own, kudos to that city-council member. When the mob-mentality takes over, and in a very real sense that's what's going on here, people don't think for themselves. They react to what others are doing and act out on the impulses that are being generated by that mob. It will, sooner or later, be reported in the news about businesses that operate in Arizona pulling out of those city's/states and doing business elsewhere.

Well, I got so involved in reading the news I lost track of time and here it is, almost 6:00 am and time to get about the day's business.

G'day.

Most government at most levels has become totally DYSFUNCTIONAL.

NY governor told state workers they were going to get one day a week off without pay. The VERY SAME day, he gave his staff members pay RAISES of five to ten thousand dollars.

The fact that he rapidly backed off the raises and the courts put a speedy halt to the furloughs does not change the fact most now feel that the state is "governed" by a blithering IDIOT!

I did not hear that in the news. That's just plain - stupid. Moronic also seems to fit that governor's personna. I think that most of these people working in government have to have a computer screen in front of their face telling them what to say and think.
