"The stigma and prejudice attached to poverty create the assumption that poor people can't be smart, so anyone who is smart can't be poor. It's a perfect circle that ensures that no poor person who talks about their experience is seen as credible." -- Noah Berlatsky, "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Unveils The Ugly Truth About Being Poor In America", 2018-11-27

Now I have two politics icons ... I guess I should start writing more. (Since I don't have a vehicle to put a bumper sticker on, this is the lock screen on my iPad. I've been saying for years that the GOP is no longer a healthy party, nor a functional conservative one, and needs to die and be replaced with a sane, pro-democracy party -- whether it's defined by conservatism the way the two major parties are divided today, or by some other reasonable uniting values. Nowadays, ex-Republicans like Max Boot are saying so as well.)

I don't speak Latin; I had to get help with the translation. Google only got me about 85% of the way there.
