A Thought About the Blog

So, today I decided that in addition to the main project of the blog, I want to explain basic philosophy to people who read the blog so that they can understand what is going on.  Philosophy, particularly of the sort that I want to be talking about which will probably always be also sociological, needs to be understood I think by everyone, since they are so pertinent to our daily life.  I think that is what has lead to the decline of the quality of conversation in this country, that elites have filled what is actually going on with so much jargon (political, financial, and otherwise) that many people just don't understand what is going on anymore.
