Two pieces of social media data that make me go hmm:


Quite a spike up and back down there in new likes per week for The Common Sense Coalition… and a rather unusual fan base for an 501c4 corporation advocating tax and spending restructuring favorable to the financial sector … of the United States, not the city of Jakarta and not the nation of Indonesia. I do have to say, it’s refreshing to see 13-17 year olds taking such an interest in cuts to retirees’ Medicare benefits. Who says those whippersnappers don’t pay attention?
I know. Maybe we should import the 13-17 year old Jakartans so they can reinvigorate our American political scene. I’m sure there’s a job we could find for such civic-minded kids, one they’re qualified for.
