No we don't.
There are facts.
Bush II was the son of Bust I.
Bush I was head of the CIA.
Those things are fact.
The connection between that election and 9/11 is not fact.
It is an amazing coincidence. Or; Something else.
I have heard people compare it to the fire in Germany.
These people study that stuff.
The people that work for Bush I study that stuff, too.
There were these big buildings in NYC. They were marvels of engineering.
They were butt ugly. They were money losers for the owners. That is fact.
People did not like working in them very much.
The court yard in the back was nice. People did not use it.
I was in those buildings during the year before they went down.
Something was going on there. I like engineers. I have been taken behind the scenes in many buildings. Engineers like to show what they are doing. They are a proud people.
Of course, they talk to me, before, they show me what they are doing. They don't take everyone inside the guts of a building. I have been in so many that I consider it a privilege.
The day I was in those buildings, there were a great many men dressed in orange and they were busy. I attempted a conversation. They said that they were installing DSL lines. They were not the usual proud bunch. They had their heads down and were task oriented.
I chalked it up to New York unfriendliness. It may have been something else.
I was in that building, because, I was told that, if I wanted to see it, then, I had to go see it now or sooner. (Shrug.) I was told stuff like that, from time to time.
I know that those building are down. The city would have NEVER given permission to take them down. Never.
This Thread is about Rand. She was a spoiled advantaged person that hated to get her hands dirty. She was angry and bitter that she had fallen from having servants to being a servants.
Yes. She could see that her birth rights set her apart from other working people. She was out of her element. The noble workers can be horrible. She grew to be a misanthrope. She may have always been a misanthrope.
I can understand. I have compassion for her. The noble worker is not always nice.
She was a lucky girl. She was able to claw her way back up the socioeconomic ladder. She had an education and skills, before, her fall from Godlike to simple human. With the help of others she put herself back into a Godlike status.
I understand. I have experienced some serous problems with the masses, myself.
Rand is long gone. Like the people at FOX, she honestly believed that the poor and the strange dark people could be as cool as she was, if, only they could understand the world the way she did.
Was her understanding flawless? No. Did it justify the unjustifiable. Yes.
To many of us, her views degraded all of humanity.
Go back to arguing among yourselves.
You and I have Confirmation bias.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_biasI will not. I can not change my view.
It is too much a part of me.
'We are our Brother's Keepers.' We need to work in teams. Well educated, professional teams.
Our brothers are difficult to say the least.
Life is, just, an exchange of electrons; It is up to us to give it meaning.
Those that want to Know, Know.
Those that do not Know; Don't tell them.
They do terrible things to people that Tell Them.
