Will try to edit it down.
May not be able to achieve that. My grey matter has continued to decline as my years increase. Which makes things like that harder and harder to do and much of the year I am still working on various business items that I must be sure I get correct.
However, I am aware that attempting to do so will help me get a better understanding of the material.
Regardless of my efforts on that, the article will help most people that wish to make the effort understand the reality of our life in the US.
Everything has the slant of the author's interpretation. His appears more neutral and realistic than any other I can remember.
I don't mean to say I agree completely with the author, but IMO he nails it better than anything I have read and I have read a large amount on the subject.
