Lacey: ...and on Friday, I'll be in Palm Beach. I promised your young man I'd speak to some friends about funding that new shelter he's so keen on. Joanie: Oh, Lacey, Rick will be so pleased! The shelter needs all the support it can get. Lacey: Well, I'm happy to do it, dear, but I wouldn't get your hopes too high. In Palm Beach, they think homelessness is caused by bad divorce lawyers.

Democrats and Republicans is all we got and that’s reality. It’s been written; “we are as gods so we better get good at it.” If we want to solve problems we have to improve our problem solving abilities. Anyone have a problem with that?

Yeah, who says we want to solve problems? Our only problem is that the rich aren’t rich enough, and they’re solving that one themselves.
