    From "Bread & Circuses." I think maybe the continents were not exactly duplicated in that one. Looks similar quality though.

  7. Being a masochistic #SeattleMariners baseball fan finally pays off tonight after 24 years. That was an exhausting vicarious five hours.

    On to the Championship Series!🎉

  8. A quotation from Cicero

    He won over the ignorant masses with shows, building projects, largesses, and banquets. His followers he bound to him by rewards, his opponents by an apparent clemency. In short, he succeeded in bringing a free country, partly because of its fear, partly because of its passivity, to an acceptance of servitude.
     
    [Muneribus, monumentis, congiariis, epulis multitudinem imperitam delenierat; suos praemiis, adversarios clementiae specie devinxerat. Quid multa? Attulerat iam liberae civitati partim metu partim patientia consuetudinem serviendi.]

    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC) Roman orator, statesman, philosopher
    Philippics [Philippicae; Antonian Orations], No. 2, ch. 45 / sec. 116 (2.45/2.116) (44-10-24 BC) [tr. Berry (2006)]

  9. No one is coming to save us but us! The rich own everything, and the working class is left to suffer. Rent is too high. Wages are too low. Healthcare is a privilege, not a right. ENOUGH. The Labor Party is the answer!

  10. Greene alone has introduced impeachment articles against #Biden, the #AttorneyGeneral, the #FBI director, the secretary of #HomelandSecurity & the #USattorney in Washington. On Thurs, Greene & #GOP conference chair #EliseStefanik (NY) introduced resolutions to “#expunge#Trump’s 2 impeachments.

  11. #Boebert’s stunt, along w/a general #Republican thirst for #vengeance after an independent prosecutor secured a 37-count #indictment against #Trump, has opened the #impeachment floodgates. #Greene & others can now be expected to play w/their new toy, using the #PrivilegedResolution maneuver to force impeachment votes against whatever #BidenAdmin ofcl looks at them crossways on any given day.

    Yes commercial value. Basically if one were to #rent, or is, renting out the #land, how much would they get? #Tax that value.

    It needs to be done, but among the #breadAndCircuses this issue is not to be seen or heard.

    If the land has a natural resource that #thePeople say should be utilised and isn't, then all known land with that valuable resource would be taxed a bit extra to help pay for a #subsidy to gather that #naturalResource.
