There is an underlying problem with this designation, and it relates to the situations where a mob is actually harmful, and where the mob rule epithet is used against positive social, political, and economic changes we demand. . In a previous essay , I noted how an angry mob , or mob mentality is what everyone is thinking of when mob rule is brought out to besmirch something that is close to pure democratic rule. Ironically, this association is never used when conservative violence-oriented belief systems are being instituted. Think about it. When there is an emotional legislative topic, such as war, abortion, guns, crime, or state killing as in the death penalty, the angry mob and mob mentality are trotted out in full force to defend their positions. Exactly where high emotional language is their stock an...

  The Shit Spreader That Is Trump (Photo:  Randy Fath / Unsplash ) First published on Medium . . We have crested atop the fabrication and falsehood epoch.

I started a business in 2000 called NicheAgency; I owned the website address as well, then years later I developed an even more niche specific business. My competition was similar businesses, neither business model was holding any worker back. The job-applicants-seeking-work industry is another story; while not the only obstruction, they are unwittingly thwarting the employment of many millions of Americans. . Though those siloed employment shops, or wider, but still siloed giants like LinkedIn , are not to blame. No person or company is. Neither is this dilemma something I could blame solely on laissez faire capitalism. That said, the situation should change; actually it must change for the nation to advance. The United States will not keep up economically with massive populations like China, and longer term I...
