Bill Maher On the Spectrum of Political Correctness
Note đ: This is a post from Passover/Easter time 2021. Some things may have changed:
I disagree with Bill Maher in the 1st half of this weekâs âNew Rulesâ: John Oliver(UPDATE 4-7-21) recently informed us that the interest rate on the National Debt has been going down for quite a while, so although we do have a pandemic đˇ recession in the real economy and the GOP were mistaken to do tax cuts for the rich if they wanted to keep their reputation for âthe party of fiscal responsibilityâ and also get anything done for people...
nevertheless, since the national debt interest rate has been going down therefore it may not be âjust like the 1920âsâ so the US government and the world, thinks Janet Yellen, can spend more. Iâm not saying individuals shouldnât be careful. Also some poor countries are drowning in debt
(upated 4-8-21 after reading Somini Segupta, NYT)
Watch John Oliverâs Easter/Late Passover âLast Week Tonightâ because although neither he nor Bill are money experts, JOâs more.
Disclaimer to that: Nobody knows why that interest rate is down(barrons.com was quick to point out today that some interest rates are up(!) so just wanted to clarify; I hope they werenât trying to confuse the issue to college kids and lay people who only just learned about this). Articles like,
âMaybe you missed what the Fed just said.â Well yes I did but itâs pretty much what they said last time(Update: 6-30-21 Actually they did raise the rate recently). Srsly though: Just want to keep it in perspective.
Tell me if/when you know why the interest rate on the federal debt has been going down and if you do happen to log in to do so, Thanks!
Bill Maher is more than right later in this clip(Will be back to see if theyâve changed it again) about the drug war being disproportionately racist and re: the fact that they put more black people in jail partly so they(âfelonsâ) canât vote đł. Anyway I realized(6-30-21) this vid below will always be Maherâs latest New Rules:

Dear Friends, September and November we may be caught in a second wave of Covid-19 and itâs not safe to vote in person. Also itâs high time we had voting day be a holiday. Also: Immunity = Mutiny!
The Economist finally said our electoral college district is outmoded and favors the more doctrinaire Republicans(most of the moderate ones have long left the party)!
For primaries and the November 3rd presidential election. All votes matter but November 3rd couldnât be more crucial.
Letâs do it soon before Trump figures out we are doing this! Update: By now it is painfully evident he already figured it out and is doing everything to stop it. So by now I hope you have gotten your primary ballots and I think it might be wise to drop it off at a drop box, if your town has one, for ballots. With mask and soc-dis
Update: More on this from Skimm daily email newsletter:
âWith July 4th coming up, it's a good time to take stock of our voting rights. If you haven't had your primary yet and aren't comfortable voting in person: here's how to request an absentee ballot. If you've experienced voter suppression or intimidation, you can report it to the DOJ or your local election office. You can also call these hotlines: 1-866-OUR-VOTE (English) Update 8-8-20: I am calling this!!! or 1-888-VE-Y-VOTA (Spanish). And learn more about your rights here. Our democracy is stronger when we all can participate. Happy (almost) Fourth.â

Sven taught me how to go shopping once in Summer of 2017 Updated 10-17-20
âPraise Youâ by Fatboy Slim. Someone in authority said to me that blogging was a passive way of relating. Oh really, you think?
I was an impatient shopper for years after he left us.
(Have been learning to be gentle.)
Space X!
When Sven taught me how he did it, this song was playing.

I sang and danced all around the store the whole time(praising him)! I was in Cheerleader mode
which is by the way another song that did not help! I made him a mix; it did not help.
