Standing athwart ineffective, feel-good legislation shouting, 'Stop!' is seen as a betrayal of those struggling to get their footing on the lowest rung of the economic ladder. Yet raising the minimum wage hacks the lowest rungs off the ladder altogether. But economic logic doesn't wash with liberals who are intent on inflaming class warfare.
The world is divided into two classes, those who believe the incredible, and those who do the improbable.
There are three classes of people: those who see, those who see when they are shown, those who do not see.

Anyone who claims to have an entirely clear conscience is almost certainly a bore.
Those who write clearly have readers, those who write obscurely have commentators.
I'm not somebody who likes to show off my cleavage, and I don't dress up for the papers.
After all, clemency is by nature outside the rule of law. When conferred upon those already convicted of crimes, it unravels the decision of citizen-jurors who found guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

I grew up with Scientology - my parents at one point were clerical. It's a pragmatic philosophy, not merely a belief system. Yeah, it's had media exposure because certain luminaries do Scientology, but millions of people do it who are not celebrities. It's not a threat or some cult.
