Non-Social in a Socially Networked World

  • 2020-03-25 Chicago

    As promised I went to downtown Chicago just to walk around. Turns out it wasn’t much of an act of defiance as there were plenty of people doing the same thing. Sure, the crowds of tourists are gone and there is little traffic because all the businesses are closed. But, people who live in the…

  • Regulations kill

    For all those people who think we don’t have enough regulations watch this video by veteran journalist John Stossel.
