I am lamenting the fact that the youth of today are too wrapped up in themselves and not curious to read or disseminate information. Easy victims to TV and especially social media. OWS was an anomaly driven by youth joblessness and not any deep understanding of economy.. How do you create jobs if the economy won't support it?

That same sort of BS is permeating our elections here in Maryland. We have out performed Virginia and Pennsylvania in job creations but that a**hole Hogan is running ads saying the opposite. Companies come here not for tax breaks but because of the educated workforce.

Big article in The Atlantic about sexting. Any boy or young man who asks his girl friend to email him an intimate selfie is not worth keeping. Don't parents teach them proper behaviour any more? If we had a daughter I would simply tell her that if a boy does not show her proper respect he is the one with the problem - lose him.

Since most of this board is populated by lefties, that comes as no surprise to me!

The answer to "if you love me you would" is always "if you love me you wouldn't".
