@petergleick The cost to us as both in terms of quality of human life and economically could take generations to repair, if ever. We MUST vote these Republican neanderthals out of public office. They've done so much damage already. More fool all those who cannot see this.

Trump & his billionaires believe that you can have outputs without inputs.
Failure to invest in the young.
Failure to invest in the future.
Failure to foster a broad & diverse base for innovation.
It's a path to perdition paved with the secular stagnation that austerity policy breeds.
