1. Excellent thread

Dylan Ratigan called it "crony capitalism" and he was going across the country exposing it until that "liberal network" MSNBC fired him.

Prayers, wishes and hopes have no effect. I think science has proved it.
The deck shuffle is random and there is nothing that can be done about it. The only control you have is how you handle the hand you were dealt.

4. Depression is thinking in the past.

Anxiety is thinking about the future
