I tire of the CAQ doing what the PQ wants and QS voting along w/ them on language, healthcare, education, etc.

No family doctors. No healthcare and education investments. Just a lack of doctors, nurses, teachers, etc.

By design.

Meh. I tire of it all.

A quotation from Horace

We learn more quickly and bring back to mind more readily
The things we laugh at than those we respect and revere.
 
[Discit enim citius, meminitque libentius ilud
Quod quis deridet, quam quod probat et veneratur.]

Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
Epistles [Epistularum, Letters], Book 2, ep. 1 “To Augustus,” l. 262ff (2.1.262-263) (14 BC) [tr. Palmer Bovie (1959)]

«
CALVIN: A little rudeness and disrespect can elevate a meaningless interaction to a battle of wills and add drama to an otherwise dull day.

…no money was ever received by the family from #Trump. Some of the costs…were covered by the #Army (which offered…to allow Guillén to be buried at #ArlingtonNationalCemetery) & some were covered by donations. Ultimately, Guillén was buried in Houston.

…The personal qualities displayed by Trump in his reaction to the cost of the Guillén funeral—#contempt, #rage, #parsimony, #racism—hardly surprised his inner circle.

& #Trump recently stoked controversy for saying civilian Presidential Medal of Freedom recipients are much better than those who received the Medal of Honor — the highest #military award in the country, often given posthumously.

"We hope that those visiting this sacred site understand that there were real people who sacrificed for our freedom & that they are #honored & #respected & treated accordingly," they said in a statement.

Jimmy McCain, a US Marine whose father was the late Sen #JohnMcCain, also condemned the visit.

#Trump has a history of controversial remarks about the <military - he insulted Sen John McCain for being a #POW. He called dead soldiers "suckers" & "losers,"
