Initial census data confirms declining birth rates and immigration, which portends slower long term economic growth & prosperity. U.S. needs to significantly increase immigration, not just for humanitarian reasons, but to fill key jobs and expand consumer demand. Economics 101!

Played golf yesterday with my son Ian and his in- laws at Half Moon Bay. He goes by the nickname Thor and instead of a large hammer, uses a two iron off the tee to bludgeon a golf ball into oblivion. Note Thor’s golf resort attire 😁

The Governers of Florida and Texas, who continue to act as Village Idiots with their refusal to enact necessary COVID-19 (Delta) prevention mandates, should be impeached! They claim “personal liberty” trumps public health. They must be held accountable for the sickness & deaths!

The Best White T-Shirts for Men disq.us/t/3tzjipx My biggest gripe about tee shirts is the general lack of tall or long options with each size. I take a Medium, but after a couple washings, they shrink and ride up to my belly button. Please give me the ML/MT option.
