RE: Daily Dose of Sultnpapper 12/02/18> My thoughts and a quote from J. Edgar Hoover.
I live about 30 miles north of Houston in what used to be a small little farming community, now it is just a suburb of Houston and the farms have all but disappeared.
I am pretty sure that crooked politicians isn't something we have an exclusive on but seeing how we have so layers of government we probably have more of them than most countries.
Ah I popped to Houston to see the Nasa space centre, was quite impressive! Also Rice University was really grand as well. Sorry to hear about the farmland being taken away, sadly the case of "expansion"...
I don't fully know the facts about the hierarchy in politics of different countries. I try to stay away as I don't believe anything they say.

Well Nick, if they are making decisions that can have an affect on you, it might be in your best interest to take notice and get involved and not stay away. Just a thought you might consider. Thanks for the support.
I take your point and I do get involved with voting in elections etc. The trouble is, we all have our own issues in life to get through that are more immediate and with there being so much information out there, how do you even know where to begin?
It's only when "an event" happens that you need to look more in to it and do something about it, human nature isn't it?
I don't really want to spend my time worrying about things that are out of my control with politics (they live in a different world to most anyway) so I choose to focus on my own development and skills to add value to the market place. Just my way of thinking of course and not gospel!

In the USA the people are supposedly in control of the politics and law so we really need to be involved. There is no doubt we all have our own issues that press us daily and we need to get thru them but when we have time we need to be doing our part, at least here in the USA, to know what our part is and the history behind our part.
If not we end up with a bunch of people in government wanting to take away any rights and power the average person has and let government do what it wants.
