    Question

    Making Sense ...

    Is crumbling infrastructure inhibiting American productivity?

    PBS NewsHour


    "In recent decades, American productivity growth has slowed. Yale University's Jacob Hacker has a possible explanation: the country’s outdated and deteriorating infrastructure. Hacker, co-author of “American Amnesia,” argues the U.S. has forgotten the role government plays in engineering prosperity, and that public investment got us where we are today. Economics correspondent Paul Solman reports."

    I know there is child sexual abuse. i am not sure Pizza Gate is one of the real issues? BUt as many have said, it should be observed. Then again, it is so terrible that innocent people might be targeted. Then again it is terrible to paint all with the crazy conspiracy brush. This is possible IMO because of reactionary behavior.

    The MSM will try to paint the alt community with "fake" inflammatory bizarre when people following alt media succomb to influence to act out. This is so predictable.

    From the article
    Pizzagate: Gunman fires in restaurant at centre of conspiracy

    The bizarre and unfounded theory has been spread online by right-wing blogs such as Infowars, which is run by Donald Trump supporter Alex Jones.
    Mr Jones, a conspiracy theorist and talk radio host, said Mr Trump called him the day after the election to thank him and his followers.
    The theory was also pushed online by Michael Flynn Jr, son of General Michael Flynn, Mr Trump's choice for national security adviser.
    The insane is amping up on multiple levels. It is almost impossible to talk to some people about these touchy subjectys. There WERE witch hunts in the past and this includes the "Communist Scare" in the 50's. Many concerned people just cannot seem to think through things IMO. The concern ramps up so High they are susceptible to "mind control" IMO.

    From Lionel, who IMO one of the sane commentators ....

    Quoted hereThinking Strategically & Critically:
    Seeing Possibilities
    A statement by Michael Scriven & Richard Paul, presented at the 8th Annual International Conference on Critical Thinking and Education Reform, Summer 1987.

    Critical thinking is the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating information gathered from, or generated by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning, or communication, as a guide to belief and action. In its exemplary form, it is based on universal intellectual values that transcend subject matter divisions: clarity, accuracy, precision, consistency, relevance, sound evidence, good reasons, depth, breadth, and fairness.
    I agree with you here ......

    Infowars David Knight and legal analyst Lionel discuss moves being made by the establishment to push back on the increasingly-successful independent media. You heard me right.
