Hey all, I wanted to share this statement with you. Of course, as a member here on Locals you already knew the basic message. I wanted to put something out that was emphatic and concise regarding my personal decision to leave politics. This is only the beginning of a new phase in my relationship with you, my beloved audience. Thank you to those of you who patiently waited through the "politics years".

Having a look at one of Miles Mathis' "favorite films" and the social commentary relevant at the time.
A longer look at the evils of Section 8, the undue advantage it has granted, and the destruction it has wrought on Middle America. Enjoy!
After I published this article, it dawned on me that popular Internet parlance has a phrase like this in people's minds thinking of Boomers telling the younger generations to lift themselves up by the bootstraps - which is obviously not the point of the article!
