The maniacal markets of mayhem as a mainstay.
From truthout, by Bill Quigley

US law officially proclaims Memorial Day "as a day of prayer for permanent peace."

However, the US is much closer to permanent war than permanent peace. Corporations are profiting from wars and lobbying politicians for more. The US and the rest of the world cannot afford the rising personal and financial costs of permanent war.

All war will ever beget is loss.
Life, limb, land and loot, lucidity precedes them all, for reason falls first.

I often contend that perfection is over rated, and that harmony was always the objective.

One good turn:

Though, I suspect you had a hand in the production of yours. As my talents are lie elsewhere, I merely located and retrieved.

Happy holiday and peace be with you Ms Demeter.
