The Injustice of Our Judicial System
I’m endlessly fascinated by the people I observe on buses. I observe more humanity on the bus than I do anywhere else. I sometimes wish corporate America could…just, get up and let a person more deserving have the seat…and I’m speaking metaphorically. The common man is way more ethical than our leaders and our corporations,…
