May I invite your attention to a particularly vexing thread in GD, please?

8. Thanks for the tip - I was going to visit again anyway for updates, but

it's always possible for me to miss something.

And what you shared there is of critical importance. Wish I could disagree with Kentuckian, but I can't. I've been reading Krugman, Reich, and more importantly, Wolff for too long and I suspect perhaps so has K. Thanks also for the link. I've read a good bit of Lenin too, but not everything and as with all great works it's important to revisit them from time to time. At my age some almost seem brand new! I want to work my way through your reading list again too.

That's what I wanted most in retirement after basic needs are met - time to read to my heart's content. I used to have to steal time to read in earlier years, but now there's precious little standing in my way. Have to rake out my house occasionally, and I do love gardening and my dogs - but basically my time's my own now. I want to put the remaining years to good use.
