The Cafe' Thi nk Tank HE WHO HAS AN EAR LET HIM HEAR! By: Willy Bill| The Cafe' Blog| Politics of Systemic Change What in the world is happening to the United States of America? Proverbs 14:34 This is not a question born solely from political frustration. It is a question born from watching a nation slowly lose sight of itself. For generations, Americans were taught that elected officials were public servants. They were not celebrities, influencers, or partisan warriors. They were entrusted with the solemn responsibility of representing the interests of the people. They were expected to be held to a higher standard, not a lower one. Today, many Americans look around and feel as though that standard has disappeared. Government increasingly resembles a sporting event. Citizens choose a side, cheer for their team, and defend conduct they would condemn if committed by their political opponents. Success is no longer measured by justice, competency, or results.

The Cafe' Thi nk Tank HE WHO HAS AN EAR LET HIM HEAR! By: Willy Bill| The Cafe' Blog| Politics of Systemic Change During the Great Depression, the Democratic administration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt created several New Deal programs to stabilize the American economy and housing market.  The housing crisis was particularly severe because many homeowners were unable to make their mortgage payments, while banks were reluctant to provide new loans. In response, the federal government established programs designed to prevent foreclosures, encourage homeownership, and make mortgage lending more accessible. Two of the most important agencies involved in these efforts were the Home Owners’ Loan Corporation (HOLC), established in 1933, and the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), established in 1934. The HOLC was created primarily to help homeowners who were at risk of losing their homes because they could not keep up with their mortgage payments. As part of its work, the HOLC...

By: Willy Bill| The Cafe' Blog| Politics of Systemic Change The President of the United States holds the ultimate authority over entry to the White House . Because the White House is both a secure federal building and the official residence of the Chief Executive, the President—and by extension, the administration—maintains absolute control over its physical premises and access controls. [ 1 , 2 ] This authority is recorded and established across multiple layers of law and regulation: The U.S. Constitution (Article II): Article II vests the executive power of the United States entirely in the President.

You get so emotionally charged that you lose all sense of appropriateness. Because this brother got the last word, you call that a “victory.” Tatum didn’t even get to respond — you cut him off. I’d bet he was the one doing the schooling. ROTFLMAO. First of all, that wasn’t even civics — it was sociology . Fact Check: Sociology is the scientific and systematic study of human society, social relationships, and social interaction. It examines how groups, organizations, and institutions — like families, schools, and governments — shape human behavior. Secondly, the federal government does not determine what must be done with the money it sends to the states. Third — and we all know this — historically, whether Demoncrat or Repueblican, both parties have catered to the more affluent because they are the ones who consistently pay to have the sch...
