Many of our politicians are too focused on grasping power and are motivated by their own self interests while others are capable of critical thinking and pragmatic decision making. Pie in the sky ideas that aren't executable just aren't pragmatic in their reality. Sloppy thinking leads to careless words and subsequent poor decision and bad policies.
I am also open minded and work well with people. I am compassionate and empathetic but am a fighter and possess mental toughness and fortitude.
I worked at Acme for about 10 months when I was offered a job a local savings & loan. After about a year the economy started to improve and I was hired by JP Morgan in New York City. I worked there for 12 years.
I'm starting to believe that there should be an exam that tests a candidates knowledge of both the issues and our history.
As America decouples from China, we will need to bring manufacturing back to the United States. In order to achieve this effectively we will need to make advancements in our robotics technology in which we are currently NOT a world leader. We could be and we should be. New York should be instrumental in this venture.
