Today is your day Boomer! I think Donald Trump needs to take a basic high school social studies class on political ideology. Yes....this week, he called Democratic opponent Kamela Harris both a "communist" and a "fascist". Well, Donald that is impossible. Check out this political spectrum diagram found in any text book, and realize right away that they are extreme opposite ideologies! Communism supports public ownership of all land/business, and government control over people's lives. Fascism, on the other hand, promises private ownership of all land/business with government control often being violent and only when necessary. Think of communism...think Mao TseTung of China and Stalin/USSR. Think of fascism....think Hitler/Germany and Mussolini/Italy. Donald, perhaps the only similarity, historically, has been their authoritarian leadership styles. Get it straight Trump, do your research, fact check before you make brazen statements, and tell the truth. Good luck in the presidential election! FYI Boomers....
Today is your day Boomer! My Dad left this world this week. I was there in-person to say goodbye and, of course, it was very, very difficult. But rather than focusing on the negatives of his downfall, I want to share with you my Dad's many contributions to my life. First off, Harold (Hal) shared his name with me and helped raise me as one of six kids in our family. Imagine the financial impact a family of eight had on his work life and mental state! Speaking of that, he taught me the importance of a strong work ethic and a good education. All his kids have university degrees or trades tickets. He showed me the supreme importance of family gatherings, how to flyfish...even when he was colour blind....how to use tools, play high-level bridge, eat organic foods, he taught me how to drive....even though I ruined the transmission on our old car....he showed me how to sail, save and invest money, have an appreciation for nature, he was a role model for me as I moved through heart/s
