MORALITY: WHEN GOLD IS BETTER THAN PLATINUM
For those whose childhood memories contain mornings spent in Sunday school, this moral rule is impossible to forget. Taught by Jesus in the first century, the Golden Rule has shaped the moral outlook of the Christian West for centuries. (After all, if God incarnate highlights one foundational moral rule, you should probably observe it.) The Golden Rule is simple, concise, memorable, and an effective moral rule that can guide literally any area of behavior. No wonder it was considered worthy of the title Golden! But in recent years, I’ve seen another rule contending to be recognized as the supreme guide for behavior. However, I didn’t encounter it in churches, taught by priests or pastors. Nor did I encounter it in theology or philosophy courses, taught by the academic explorers of human wisdom. No, I found it in the business world, taught by marketers, those holy purveyors of gain. Somewhere in this development of the marketing arts, marketers realized that the Golden Rule had a shortcoming. You can treat a person the way you want to be treated, but what if he or she doesn’t want to be treated the way you like to be treated? You might treat them in a way they dislike. They might dislike that. They might dislike you. Oh, the marketing horror! So, someone realized the solution was to make a small yet critical adjustment. Instead of treating people the way you want to be treated, you should treat people the way THEY want to be treated.

The DNC Just Screwed Over Bernie Sanders and Spit in Voters’ Faces
You may have heard of superdelegates before today, but you may not have realized how antithetical the idea is to democracy itself until now. Bernie Sanders took 60% of the popular vote among the Democratic race on Tuesday, but because of the delegate process, Bernie Sanders will leave with a minimum of 13 delegates, but very likely 15. At the same time, challenger Hillary Clinton (who lost by more than a 20-point margin among the electorate) also walks aways with 15.
