    Just as an aside. I thought ALL might be jewish, but it turns out only half were, though about 70% of those were since I have been an adult:

    FED CHAIR ******PEOPLE******

    yellen jewish woman
    bernanke jewish man
    greenspan jewish man
    volker I believe jewish man
    miller (unknown) man
    burns jewish man
    martin (possibly catholic) man
    mccabe man
    eccles mormon man
    black man
    meyer jewish man
    young man
    crissinger man
    harding man
    hamlin(FIRST) man

    YEAH, I know, someone will think one of those is racist! 8) BT isn't it interesting that the FIRST one was named HAMLIN? I wonder if he is FROM there! I wonder if he is RELATED to the fabled guy!

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pied_Piper_of_Hamelin After all, they HAVE kind of done the same thing with the world, though THIS is only directly related with the US.

      Steve, it's more than just one line; religious intolerance reeks through your entire post.

        Well, HEY, I never said anything against the religions, and probably 3 or 4 are represented. but seriously? "black man"? 8) That was unplanned, but he was a man with the last name of black.

            Tim, he reminded me of a old Chris Rock joke.

            I'm not sure where he was but he says first the shouters were like F the arabs and then they started shouting F the muslims and then F the gays and then F the jews but that's when Chris began to become concerned because he says once they mentioned the jews - the blacks aren't far behind.

    Well, I guess I never got a brain wash. Ironic term by the way. NOPE, I was just pointing it out. Maybe I should have added ethnicity, etc... There MIGHT have been some Hispanics. But the latest and current head IS a woman. Frankly though, they are currently doomed to be dishonest and trouble makers so I trust them even less than I did a decade ago which wasn't very much. The president and congress that voted for them should all have been kicked out on their ears!

    Why not aspire to be somewhere where you can do some good?
