I’ve been neglecting my blog recently out of simply having no time to sit down and write! Lots of work, lots of traveling.
I wanted to write something about the current health care debate raging in the US, but it’s difficult to synthesize thoughts into a coherent posts as there are so many aspects to it all.
So my simple observation, and the one I find most compelling, is how in a county that so prides itself on freedom of speech and freedom of expression, public discourse can so completely and utterly fail.
When you have a system of government that separates powers and relies in part on compromise to function, it should promote civility and understanding, not discourage it.
I guess America just has a long history of arguing with itself. Some things will never change.
