It is very similar to treating hernias, right? The problem is that the tissue and muscles aren’t strong enough and surgeries don’t do much to correct that. They can take up some slack, but surgery without adding some material that is stronger than the natural tissue, is only going to weaken, not strengthen. Now…

It’s clear that black wealth did not increase significantly during the Obama era, but statistics are not in about how black families did after 2016.  What if the situation has improved during the Trump years?

Wages gradually go up, and employees who stick around gradually get promoted with higher wages, and employees in this situation are often rather satisfied. But, the company gradually becomes less…
