THANKING THE PURITANS ON THANKSGIVING
There’s little less fashionable today than praising the Puritans, especially for their egalitarian political idealism, their promotion of genuinely humane and liberating learning, and their capacity for enjoyment and human happiness. Praising the Puritans is especially difficult for us because even most of our Protestants have abandoned them.  But the truth is that the Puritans remain the chief source of the American difference—our ability to live freely and prosperously without unduly slighting the longings of our souls. It’s the Puritans’ idealism that made and even makes Americans civilized.
The spirit of political liberty—the ennobling activity of citizens—depends, the Puritans taught us, on the spirit of religion. And they also showed that egalitarian citizenship depends on the truth that each of us is more than merely a citizen.

Donald Trump’s victory, as well as Brexit, ought to speed up plans for EU defence integration, Germany has said. “Europe needs common political will for more security policy relevance. The outcome of the election in America could provide an additional impetus”, German defence minister Ursula von der Leyen said in an opinion article in the Rheinische Post, a German newspaper, on Thursday (10 November).

This Could Be Our 1989
What lies in ruins here is not common decency and morality – much less the character of a whole people and nation – but rather an anachronistic, arrogant, entitled, smug, conceited ruling elite and paradigm. You can see this in the clues that show that the vote was not so much for a particular vision of one man, but against a prevailing model of managing the world. Government is powerful, but not powerful enough to bend reality to its wishes.

Sadly, One Does Not Simply Repeal ObamaCare
Candidate Trump repeatedly called for repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act during the campaign, but it is unclear what President Trump will actually do about the ACA. It is not clear even with President Trump, and Republican majorities in the House and Senate, whether full repeal is possible and what replacement might look like. Replacement requires something that looks like the ACA: TrumpCare, perhaps?

Obamacare was the Catalyst
Why did Trump win? It wasn’t WikiLeaks. It wasn’t FBI Director Comey. It was an electorate that was profoundly unhappy with the direction of the country. And they were particularly unhappy with President Obama’s signature domestic policy achievement — the Affordable Care Act (ACA) — or as it is commonly known, Obamacare. There's no question that this disastrous program was the main reason for the stunning upset. Voters remembered the hollow promises that if you liked your insurance you could keep it, and that medical costs would fall. Down the election home stretch, voters saw insurers pulling out of healthcare markets all over the county, skyrocketing out-of-pocket costs (deductibles and co-insurance), and steep insurance premium price rises. Premiums for enrollment starting November 1 of this year, just days before the election, increased 25% on average. Some states have huge increases: North Carolina 40%, Pennsylvania 53%, Minnesota 59%, and Arizona 116%.

You're Afraid of Power, Not Trump
You aren’t scared of Trump the person. Trump has been on this earth for 70 years and other than a general distaste for him, no one ever feared for their life because Trump walked the earth. He could do what he wanted because he didn't affect your life. He had no control over you. What you fear is the power he now wields.

FREE TO WORSHIP HIM WITHOUT FEAR
Jordan Hylden on the days "after Election Day." Will they be marked by fear, or "perfect freedom"? We say we are free, but more of us feel alone, afraid, angry, despised, and powerless. The freedom America brought has begun to feel like a freedom from community, shared values, stability, security, family, and dignity. Does it need to be? Do all of those words really mean, without quite saying: My community, our shared values, my tribe’s stability and security and not yours?

It’s not that America has never been a disappointment before. It’s not that America has never been an embarrassment. But nowhere in modern memory — not at Abu Ghraib, not in the 2000 election debacle, not in the Monica Lewinsky scandal — has it been as much of a disappointment and embarrassment as it is right now. Donald Trump is president-elect of the United States. God help us all.

Why President Trump Will Fumigate the Fed
There are currently two open Board of Governors seats, which will most likely not be filled before the end of President Obama’s tenure. Additionally, both Chair Janet Yellen and Vice-Chair Stanley Fischer’s terms will be up by 2018. Crunch the numbers and you will see that Trump has the opportunity to replace a majority of the Board of Governors and a third of the FOMC with monetary policy hawks during his presidency.

Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks: This is not politics as usual.

What we are witnessing is the birth of a new politics of anger. It is potentially very dangerous indeed.

World War II Veteran Lloyd Heller Shares Details About Production of 1943 Tank Training Film
In August, an e-mail came to motion picture archivist Carol Swain’s inbox asking about a World War II training film called Security on the March. Richard Herde contacted the Motion Picture unit looking for information about a film his 100-year-old uncle, Corporal Lloyd Heller, had helped make while serving as a tanker in the United States Army. As luck would have it, Heller remembered the exact title of the film, which made it much easier to find, and a beautiful 35mm negative was preserved here at the National Archives. The motion picture preservation lab scanned Security on the March and made a DVD so that Heller could view the film for the first time in over 70 years.

from The Boston Globe

In a ranked choice vote system, rather than simply voting for one candidate, voters rank their candidates by preference—first, second, third, and so on. Then, if no candidate receives at least 50 percent of the vote after the first choices are counted, the candidate with the least first-choice rankings is eliminated, and the voters who preferred the last place finisher have their vote reallocated according to their next choice. The votes are then recounted and the process is repeated until one candidate breaks the 50 percent threshold.

This US election result is a terrific argument for monarchy
Last week the New York Times, of all places, ran an opinion piece in defence of hereditary monarchy.

The invisible economic catastrophe that Donald Trump spotted
Many commentators seem to accept falling male participation in work as some kind of inevitable force of nature, often linked to arguments about technological change. This is simply untrue.

Vladimir Putin was one of the first world leaders to congratulate Donald Trump on becoming the 45th President of the United States. According to an official statement on the Kremlin portal, he expressed hope that the two of them can work together to repair the relations between Russia and the US and to address threats to global security.

As with Brexit, there’s little evidence that the US presidential election result had much to do with voters’ personal economic circumstances. Diversity and difference tends to alarm right-wing authoritarians, who seek order and stability. This, and not class, is what cuts the electoral pie in many western countries these days.

Protect Your Library the Medieval Way, With Horrifying Book Curses
IN THE MIDDLE AGES, CREATING a book could take years. A scribe would bend over his copy table, illuminated only by natural light—candles were too big a risk to the books—and spend hours each day forming letters, by hand, careful never to make an error. To be a copyist, wrote one scribe, was painful: “It extinguishes the light from the eyes, it bends the back, it crushes the viscera and the ribs, it brings forth pain to the kidneys, and weariness to the whole body.” Given the extreme effort that went into creating books, scribes and book owners had a real incentive to protect their work. They used the only power they had: words. At the beginning or the end of books, scribes and book owners would write dramatic curses threatening thieves with pain and suffering if they were to steal or damage these treasures.
