One of my brothers is gay and I long since came to terms with it (30-40 years ago). Hatred and discrimination don't belong to be at Thanksgiving or Christmas.... or the other 363 days of the year either....

Interesting demonstration in terms of the video participants on the link. Think tide of history and Penn's point on history moving on...

So as a long hair liberal graduate of UC Berserkley, there are a lot of lefties who make my brain hurt to listen to them. But they are trying to go to where we can't go. At least not now. But what disturbs me is the righties who want to go back to where they imagine we used to be without realizing that we are not there any longer because it became untenable. Fires don't burn backwards and cement doesn't turn back into water and dry powder and then climb back inna bag no matter how much you may want it to. Neither do you speed up/reverse history for convenience...
Kinda peripheral 401 stuff. Your fund advisor's first obligation is to his wife and kids. That obligates him to earn. His obligation to you is to do well for you/not screw you up so badly that you no longer produce income. It's OK not to come first. It's not OK to come last...
