actually think a critical understanding of religion can be very helpful when framing an issue
for example a few days ago had a suggestion to view a video by Lorena Gonzales and Nathan Fletcher explaining FAIRNESS WRT prop 15 the “split roll” property tax
is recognized what seems to be happening is a case of “envy” (because as a kid who went to catholic high school where I learned way back in the day about the seven deadly sins)
another thing I did in high school was get a pilots license, so at a pretty young age became very aware of a culture of safety, also learned pilot error is the cause of most aviation accidents and in a crash investigation pilot mental state is looked into (for example)
point being, being prepared running the numbers before hand and looking at an issue from multiple points of view (like religious teachings) dramatically improves the odds of survival
sadly we’re kinda up $hit creek simply because politicians like Lorena Gonzales, Nathan Fletcher AND TRUMP for that matter should be thought of as akin to idiot pilots that fly by the seat their pants in the clouds and their only talent is the ability to brain wash people into liking them (sort of like cult leaders) AND like cult leaders who want to hold on power they vilify the other side along saying their ideas have zero merit
sigh,…
PS WRT prop 15 another reason I don’t feel passage of the “split-roll” idea is recall an idea from “game theory”
have been following the polls and expect liberals to drink the kookaid and buy into the idea that small business will not experience any collateral damage
perhaps I am over thinking the issue, but knowing about the “ultimatum game” actually think passage will create an even bigger divide between the very rich and poor because as I see things those at the economic controls (democratic politicians and thier partisan supporters) are inducing something akin to pilot induced oscillations (which is going to doom fledgling black owned businesses)
