Dear followers:
As we prepare for the impending deficit and budget talks, let’s not forget about Harvey, or Irma or whatever storm occurs on our shores. “We the People”, need to help our Congressional representatives and our State and local governments to focus on our cities Infrastructure and “critical infrastructure and in house IT needs”. I’ve enclosed several articles from various newspapers to keep the devastation of Houston front and center. We don’t need tax cuts for Corporations or the already wealthy, we need real jobs to make our cities and rural areas thriving centers of culture and productivity.
The storm’s victims need all the help we can provide. But this calamity should make us reconsider our broader social contract.
