I'm saddened by the way USA has fallen due to a broken federal political system, corruption that is less sinister and more systematic, lobbyist control of everything, and free markets used as an excuse to make money off people's misery. But, I want to survive and (in parallel) I want to see humanity progress so I'll just do my little part and hopefully I have some success. If I put some ideas down on this site they probably won't match most of the greedy, arrogant (and at times, ignorant) mofo's that seem to be drawn to investing and seeking "alpha" status.
