Unprincipled men (and women) take advantage of the chaos that they themselves create to lead us to our own destruction.
They create nothing but the paving stones of political unrest; these stones pave the road that leads us to autocracy.
We walk this road when we allow politicians to disrupt our civic unions and break the rules we made as a nation of the free and wreak chaos in public institutions.
Democracy is imperiled. We need to walk the road that will keep it strong.
American democracy needs us to stay on the straight and narrow.

In other closings news, The Meat Ball Shop on 76-77 and 2nd Avenue is no more. This “mail stop” removed itself from 1st Avenue (thus technically forfeiting its name) several years back. It was never customer friendly so I am surprised it lasted this long.
Do not go by my judgment. When this joint opened, with its games and eats, then drinks and games, I questioned its business model. Still standing and expanding!
