Richie is an astute and erudite commenter who firstly perceives the trouble and strife plagueing mankind more particularly the United States, as well he has the diction skills to put his observations into every day language so we know unequivocally what is going on .. he appears to have arrived at the same conclusion I made quite some years ago that only the Almighty can put things to rights, my advice to him is "keep up the good work, and don't let them bring you down." :)
