First, 400 year old view, from John Donne;
"No man is an island...'
And from the TV show, Game of Thrones (GOT) character Petry Baelish;
"Chaos is an opportunity, a ladder..."
A historical perspective on the War of the Roses (which GOT is loosely based on)...it too was a war against globalization, the "global" being France (and the European aristocrats watching from afar)...
The Nobles worried of the influence of France and the immigration of the Wildlings (Scots). I think it was Trump of York vs. Gibson of Hollywood...or something like that, history proved them both to be huge turds.
Gordon
As my gym buddy who was the chief in charge of the county sewage facilities before retirement used to say:
"What's **** to you is bread and butter to me."
I guess I mean you could be right about both guys but somebody has made and is still making a **** pot full of $$$ off these guys. I'm jealous I'm not one of them.
