My laptop is four years old. During that time, news stories, and my own posts, have cluttered up this computer as much as it did the last one. This is a best of the last four years of news articles, intermixed . . .

Welfare flourishes in bad economic times, and capitalism flourishes in good economic times. I seriously think some here on Gather are trying to fight high tide.
