“I don't think that split government is a good idea. Conventional wisdom in Washington for years has been that divided government is good because of a check and a balance. What I believe happens all too often, regardless of which party is there's gridlock. And I think the better argument is give one party a chance, give them a chance with a House and a Senate and a president. Give them a few years to see what they can do. And if you don't like it, put another party in.” IfsThinkingGivingYearsBelieveHas BeensIdeasGovernmentHappensHouseI BelievePresidentCan DoChancePartyBalanceArgumentChecksDividedGood IdeasSenateSplitsConventionalConventional WisdomGridlockDivided Government Author:Scott Walker

“Many painters had a clear idea of what fractals are. Take a French classic painter named Poussin. Now, he painted beautiful landscapes, completely artificial ones, imaginary landscapes. And how did he choose them? Well, he had the balance of trees, of lawns, of houses in the distance. He had a balance of small objects, big objects, big trees in front and his balance of objects at every scale is what gives to Poussin a special feeling.” GivingWellsIdeasFeelingsBigsBeautifulHouseClearTreeSpecialFrontsObjectsBalanceDistanceScalesPainterLandscapeClassicArtificialImaginaryLawnsFractalsBeautiful LandscapesSmall Objects Author:Benoit Mandelbrot
“The problems of 2008 were never cured. The Federal Reserve's solution to the crisis was to lend the economy enough money to borrow its way out of debt.

“Working in the old fashion house is like how your parents raise you and give you this base, and you eventually grow up and have to say, "Well, you gave me this, but now I need to go my own way."
