AROUND THE ISLAND RACE 2020
The Conanicut Yacht club has run this race 93 times now. It is, for me one of the fun events in Narragansett Bay. Windward, Leeward courses are frankly a chore. The SW breeze filled nicely and made it all the more enjoyable.
WILL SOCIAL CONSCIENCE SAVE THE WORLD?
Richest of rich at Davos ponder how to
level the field
I am surprised, pleasantly surprised that the people attending Davos are even aware of the problem. From there I wonder about Chris Christie, and then Vladimir Putin. Will their egos be their downfall.? I am not comparing the two, simply that in each case they seem to be oblivious of the plight of others.
Are those attending Davos concerned that the growing disparate situation the world population in in may spell revolution? On the news last night the conclusions of a study showed that the RICHEST 85 FAMILIES HOLD MORE WEALTH THAN 3.5 BILLION PEOPLE IN THE WORLD.
Bill Gates announced at the World economic forum that by 2035 there would be no more poor countries. I have my doubts. 50 years ago I imagined that the population would be educated, eliminating poverty; instead I watched the complete opposite. I thought people would recognize the futility of war and what transpires? More wars in the world than ever before.
