New tradition here on Great Conversation(s). We’re going to take some time to help define terms, which all by itself…makes it easier to have great conversations.
Wednesday Wednesday Wordplay:
What does “liberal” mean?
(Yes, I’m equally aware that this conversation is happening on the FB group and determined that eventually we’ll have enough people on GC to have it here. :))
"Randy Lioz: As a self-described progressive, I’m clearly on the other side of this issue from most of you. I’m wondering if my point about needing some tools and structure to be able to maximally enjoy our liberty resonates at all. Public money used for infrastructure, education, healthcare and many other things can help us enjoy our freedom to move around and start enterprises. I recognize that y’all believe it can go too far (and has already), but are we all behind this principle?"
Roads, Brigdes and dams are fine. Healthcare and Education ... no.
Here's the FB conversation which will expire Friday, Oct 23 at 5pm EDT.
