America's political system is clearly collapsing.
t
Regardless of whoever wins this joke of an election, one thing is obvious: whoever wins had better not spike the ball and should immediately do something the other side likes. If not, something much worse than Hillary Clinton/Donald Trump will come down the pike in four years.
The solution is not something that can be legislated. It comes down to values. Corruption is more destructive than wars.
It comes down to the voters.
I read in the Chicago Tribune that this election, if nothing else, as forced American culture to take a good look at itself.
It is not pretty.
Instead of blaming others for problems, it is time for Americans to take responsibility, show some interstinale fortitude and take matters into their own hands. Your govnerment either is not interested nor competent.
The corruption has seeped into everything. There have been many instances of price gouging here in NC in the wake of the hurricaine, complaints are mounting in the field of labor relations and there is general unhappiness in America.
Treat others as you would like to be treated.
If anyone tries to run you over ,give them a chance to back off, then flatten them.
If you are one of the good guys, you always start at a disadvantage.
Don't worry, it just makes you stronger.
Now, get to work. We have country to save!

Hurricane Matthew slams NC
The hurricane was not the problem. It was the flooding after the flooding! The water kept rising and soon the roads started vanishing!
Michelle and I were lucky. We lost power for about an hour and the water pressure was a little weak for a day. Other than that, no problems.
School was cancelled for a week since most of the country was underwater. I am not sure what the make up sked is, or if there is one since we are a community college so I guess I will just pick up with the Japan lecture I had ready for last Monday.
Nonetheless, we came out of it OK and Muffins the cat not only spent the storm out on the porch, she seemed to enjoy it! I thought cats hated the rain!
The water is still rising since the water is running off into the rivers. We are not near any rivers, so that is one thing we don't have to worry about.
We are very thankful.
This was not a direct hit, but we caught the fourth quadrant so it felt like a direct hit.
Tomorrow, we go back to our normal teaching schedule (or as close as we can!)...
...until the next one!
