Mental Issues

 Some poor souls have conditions such as OCD or brain chlamydia and can't shut up about politics.  I was doing my best to be one of the silent majority, but I'm not wrapped too tight.  Try to be patient.  Maybe Joseph Stalin was right about dissent being a form of insanity, and that subversives need their brains worked on with an air hammer.  Despised enemy of the people Steve Bannon hatched a 'strategy' that gave the Left fits of temper, and so right they all were to put 'Sloppy Steve' in the hoosegow.   His 'strategy' was a danger to a lot of people.

It was probably, and I'm not all certain of this, a statist agenda that would have reduced the scale of the Federal government, placing many jobs done at federal level into the hands of state government.  Too, it may have been a plan to remove social politics from federal government.   If this plan actually happened, and it didn't, it could have cost a lot of people their jobs and their influence.    Again, no certainty of this on my end, but the hated 'drain the swamp' slogan may have pertained to removing any bias favoring one interest group over others.   I know.  That could mean that your agenda would have lost legitimacy at the federal level.   That didn't happen.   Please drink a gallon of wine and continue reading.  

Senile old people like myself might have a lucid moment and recall the wave of corporate downsizing that took place throughout the 1980s and 90s.  This was taking place in the private sector of the economy.   Younger and less senile folks might be aware of a wild uptick in non-profit corporations that began after the downsizing in the private sector.   This was a shift from tax paying private business to tax exempt business, allowing corporate executives to get rich or richer at public expense.   501C3 businesses are supposedly humanitarian or charitable, so it became necessary to adopt the pretext of social justice.   Most of the money involved goes to the rich, but with deep concern for the poor and oppressed.   Sloppy Steve's strategy was probably a danger to this trend in business.  

Nothing to worry about.  Steve is history.   The gravy trains are all running on schedule.  No one gives a rat's hairy butt what I think or do.   I'm senile.
