U.S. military families and the sacrifices in two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
03/02/2011
A sense that the sacrifice in lives and hardships of U.S. soldiers are known only to a handful of people, as the nation goes about its business and the wars drag on. His loss is the loss of 5500 families who lost sons in the wars says Lt. Gen John Kelly. Young veterans 20-24 face the added hurdle of a 30% unemployment rate as they return.

Donald Trump's criticism of the 2011 Alabama immigration law and his stand on immigration calling for large scale deportation in August 2015
08/23/2015
Trump was sharply critical of the 2011 Alabama immigration law designed to promote self-deportation in calling it "crazy" and "maniacal." What changed in 2015 when Trump called for large scale deportation of illegal immigrants during the presidential campign is not clear. Two other developments happened since the Alabama law- the U.S. economy had largely recovered from the worst effects of the recession and immigration from Mexico was down to low levels, a trickle not seen in a long time as a result of the recession. A third development was that President Obama had pursued a policy of aggressive deportation in his years in office followed by an executive order on immigration late in the second term granting illegal immigrants a pathway to citizenship.

04/11/2016
U.S. president Mexico says about Trump's plan to stop remittances to Mexico, about stopping each and every Western Union transaction- "good luck with that." A column in the WSJ says this is an election ploy for voters feeling hurt by the recession. It says there is litttle chance that Mexico would agree or that remittances could be stopped without hurting the U.S. economy with capital controls.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
