When Will We Ever Learn?

Phil Anderson

“Not that anyone in a position of power seems to notice, but there's a simple rule for American military involvement in the Greater Middle East: once the U.S. gets in, no matter the country, it never truly gets out again.” Commentator Tom Engelhardt writing in “Common Dreams”

Constitutional Roulette

Phil Anderson

“A convention would be a stealth tactic to re-write the Constitution. Potentially everyone’s constitutional rights and civil liberties could be up for grabs. As recent gerrymandering, limitations on voting rights, and proposals to criminalize dissent indicate, Republicans are no champions of freedom or civil liberties.”

Economic Conundrums

“Live simply so that others may simply live.” Mahatma Gandhi

If we really cared

Phil Anderson

“If we really cared about the troops we would not be so quick to start wars. We would not get into unnecessary, no win quagmires like Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria.”

You Can’t Fix Stupid

Phil Anderson

Reginald Ubergelt, President of United Pollution Producers, was reported dancing down Wall Street shouting, “Free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty, we’re free at last.”

Water Choices for Wisconsin

Phil Anderson

"One would think everyone would support protecting our water resources. Clean water should not be a political issue. But astonishingly it is."

Science Illiteracy and Public Policy

Phil Anderson

We can’t continue ignoring the warnings of science. We can’t afford scientific illiteracy in a 21st century world. Nor can we afford political leadership with the “same intellectual blind spots as their constituents.”

Wisconsin CAFO Update

Phil Anderson

“Cheap food that pollutes our water, land, and air is NOT CHEAP. We should not allow short term profit, or short term low food prices, to override long term community good.”
