Aging Right now, we live well, and then we don't live well, and then we die. The most that science seems to offer us is this: We'll live well, and then we'll die. Adam Gopnik, New Yorker, May 13, 2019 © 2019 Kwiple.com

Losers When Trump broke tradition with every modern president and refused to sell his businesses or at least put them in a blind trust, he must have figured he'd make much more money his way. Turned out just the opposite. Most financial experts say if he'd have sold it all and put everything into America's bull market, he'd be worth $500 million more today.

Out-of-step legislators A group facing an out-of-step legislator [someone with different goals/priorities] may not be able to do much with the standard tools of lobbying and issue advocacy; interest groups are better at mobilizing their friends than converting their enemies, and elections seem to be more useful for replacing out-of-step legislators than changing their minds. The group's only option may be to try to replace the legislator with another candidate who shares its goals. Nicholas Carnes, White-Collar Government © 2019 Kwiple.com
