Speaking about income inequality a friend just got back from a month in Australia where they have a “living wage.” She reports a McDonald’s small burger, fry and soda is $10. She said the food was grossly overpriced. She survived on sandwich meat and bread. A steak such as we’d get here for $12-15 is $50. She said, “the irony is, so they’re making a living wage, but they have to live in a world where everything cost several times what it costs here. So how much did the gain from this living wage?”

I recently saw a program about the German advance through Belgium in the early days of the war.

Some French generals including Charles de Gaul realized the Germans must have had very thin string of supply lines and if they could cut them, the Germans would be the ones stranded.

Unfortunately for the French, de Gaul did attack but the Germans fought so well that he was unable to break through what must have been a very thin line.

Today's Democrats .... must hope that the opposition makes disabling mistakes.

Given the state of the Republican Party, that's likely a pretty good strategy.

Headline reminds me of the one about the ad that read “French Firearm, lightly used, never fired, dropped once”

Except to hope for mistakes by Republicans -- who have shown quite capable of mistakes in the past. We'll see how many they make this time.

They have already made one. "Repeal and Replace". The people who hate Obamacare -- which is the majority of the population in every poll I have ever seen -- don't want the government in their health care. Replace? No. Not with more government.
