#1) I have always thought that our black citizens overreact to the N word and the B ( boy) word. Only 150 years ago that was what they were called. It is history, not intended as an insult. Use these words now and it may cost you your life.
Now I see the inbred, snooty British royalty looking down their noses at what they like to call commoners ( The C word ). Were I a Brit and referred to as a (C word ), I might feel the urge to inflict an injury on them.
#2) Isn't it peculiar that the last 12 US presidents all graduated from Harvard or Yale ? It has not always been necessary to have a college degree, Andrew Jackson never went to school. Abraham Lincoln had two years of formal education. Large numbers of them scarcely got out of High school.
# 3) The Feds on average are spending $166 million every hour of the day, 7 days a week. They love to spend our money and are very generous. Buy a hybrid auto and get a $6,000 dollar gift. Put in an efficient air conditioner and get a $2,000 gift. If you have a smallish income, be sure to file a tax return whether you owe taxes or not. The EIC ( earned income credit, often miscalled earned income tax credit ) will present you with a gift of up to $5,666 . This program has been plagued by cheats and fraud, aided and abetted by unscrupulous tax preparers. These and many other giveaways should be eliminated.

The reason politicians love to spend money is simple - it is an effective way to buy votes.
On the Harvard/Yale front, maybe remember that it is not what you know, but WHO you know. Ivy League schools are teeming with rich folks and breed lots of people that rise to positions of power.
