You Know the right thing to do — so when someone tells you there’s a better, quicker, easier, or more correct way: watch out. “Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee. An actor’s life for me!”

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Are they teaching? Or Preaching?” Bumper Sticker
Does a uniform curriculum mean uniform thinking? Is an ideology something that our children are not being taught about — but are being taught to accept?
It’s surprising how little we know about what is taught in our public schools; let alone how and with what agenda it is being taught.
Policies are not just presented; they are being embedded in youthful minds.
When powerful unions and powerful interests get together; the result is never for the benefit of outsiders.
Try to find out the “what” and “why” of your child’s “public” education — and see how quickly you’re shut down.
“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Goodness doesn’t need to hide” Bumper Sticker
There are many ways to hide government activities and wrongdoing besides a plain refusal to disclose information: selective disclosure, purposed government studies, substitution of information, claiming the need to “protect” someone or something, or just by making it too difficult to obtain.
Withholding the information that the people need to debate and decide issues, and denying them the ability to judge the merits of government policies, has become a basic political strategy for authorities who have come to see themselves as rulers and molders of society; rather than representatives.
And although governments may claim to a “greater good” by withholding information from the people; there is no evidence that this is true, or that it is the public good that requires this.
Demand Full Disclosure – Full Exposure of all government policies and statistics.
“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “New York State of Corruption” Bumper Sticker
The scariest thing about corruption in New York is its acceptance. It’s the “sophisticated” view that so clearly overlays a landscape of self-interest and fear.
It’s frustrating to see how quickly and completely the county’s educated people distance themselves from any wrongdoing or partisan payoffs in their own community; immediately jumping to another place, another belief, or even another time; always denying the darkness — and yet fearful to stray from the herd.
“Corruption is always with us.” “They’re going to die soon anyway” “And I’m sure it wouldn’t interest anybody – Outside of a small circle of friends”
The New York State of Corruption; it’s a place where even the investigations need to be investigated.
“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Bureaucratic Misconduct” Bumper Sticker
Did you ever wonder what a liberal community would be like with complete top-to-bottom control of government policy; and the ability to enact everything that their beliefs approve?
“Tompkins County and Tammany Hall” uses documented facts and incidents to create an undeniable circumstantial case for the future of our society; and the place of Government and the People.
In a society with the sort of moral compass that lands people a spot on American Greed: The only question is: is there any power on earth that can stop it?

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “COVID-19 Elderly Deaths” Bumper Sticker
With the undercurrent “cull the herd” attitude towards our dying elderly citizens; it would be a good time to look for a really practical solution for a healthy society.
All our world’s problems have one source: overpopulation. Even the pollution and global warming that are racing us to extinction are tied to this single fact.
Sterilize the young and it’s “problem solved” — simple, direct, and measurable results. A plan that would pay back every year; until we reach a stable, clean, healthy world with enough for everyone.
Stop this selfish reproduction; and pass a law for its reduction.
“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Get off the high ground” Bumper Sticker
Get off the high ground: because your views directly contradict the lives and beliefs of every revered figure of human worth and equality. Get off the high ground: because goodness acts in the open; and you insist on secrecy. Get off the high ground: because you bend important principles 180 degrees and still claim you’re fulfilling them.
Get off the high ground; you ain’t all that — but you are all that that has oppressed people throughout history.
“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “COEXIST” Bumper Sticker
We can coexist; as long as we do what they want. As long as we say what they want. As long as we think what they want. For as long as they allow.
There is no compromise — it’s just that some things can’t be swallowed whole.
“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Scientific Method” Bumper Sticker
In Cornithaca County; I exposed the myths behind this modern Icon of Incorruptibility — debunking the popular view that Science is responsible, rational, reliable, selfless, and self-effacing.
When scientific studies rely on outside funding, and when, in some fields; more than a third of those studies cannot be replicated by impartial researchers — it doesn’t require a mathematician to add things up.
Science is the well-fed lap dog in the houses of the rich and powerful.
“If You Want to Understand Our Government’s Policies” Bumper Sticker
If you want to understand our government’s policies — just think like a 14-year old:
A world of privilege without responsibility. A demand to have now at any cost; ignoring the future consequences.
A resentment and refusal to listen to advice. A rebellious attitude toward anyone and anything that restricts your behavior.
And a pattern of blaming everything on someone else — especially anyone outside the group.
Or you could read “Lord of the Flies.”
