  2. I did love hearing Carlin and watched many of his videos repeatedly; but now ... I don’t know, I find the lack of current context wearing. His tone too cynical in a time when we need good governance more than ever.

    Saying “I don’t trust the government” these days still resonates but I want a little differentiation. I want National Health Care, Social Security, Environmental Protection, an FDA that is uncompromisingly scientific not one vulnerable to the influences of Big Pharma, a National Park Service, etc.
