Insight & Outsight: August 2013
http://insightandoutsight.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 29, 2013. By Daniel J. Perin. I wish I could write like I used to. It is not that the ideas come to me any less often than before. It is that the time between when the idea strikes my mind or heart and when my fingers are at the keys of my computer now seems like hours and in that time so much is lost. The brevity with which thoughts endure in their clarity of origin leaves me frustrated and disappointed these days. I am very glad that I can still think and feel. The celebration of the 50.

Insight & Outsight: December 2011
http://insightandoutsight.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 13, 2011. Confessions of a Couch-Potato Occupier. In September I wrote to Dan in an email that this Occupy Wall Street phenomenon seemed to be really heating up and spreading and turning into a Movement, and to let me know if it was starting to happen in Portland, and that I might come over and we could check it out. Well, that was many cities and protests ago. Or at least the above is my excuse for being out of touch.). This is an extremely important activity in our time- to sort out t...

Insight & Outsight: Mission
http://insightandoutsight.blogspot.com/p/mission.html
We all have or need to make an investment in keeping The American Dream alive. The dream is that we can start at the bottom of the economic ladder and through hard work and education achieve a comfortable, safe, secure and healthy life in an open democracy supporting a political and economic system that includes everyone. Thus the blog will be "What are the current realities in our society that seem to be blocking or encouraging our fulfillment as complete individuals living collectively? Where authors a...

Insight & Outsight: These Are the Times That Stir Our Souls
http://insightandoutsight.blogspot.com/2013/01/these-are-times-that-stir-our-souls.html
Monday, January 21, 2013. These Are the Times That Stir Our Souls. By Daniel J. Perin. Four years ago at the Inauguration of President Barack Obama I was as moved with pride as I had never been before in my life. Today as we share his second inauguration I am still moved with pride because of the nation of people’s that I have the privilege to be part of. It has been a tumultuous first term for this President, much more frustrating than it should have been. We are ONE PEOPLE! Let us come together and rea...

Insight & Outsight: Social Security Recipients Get 1.5% COLA
http://insightandoutsight.blogspot.com/2013/10/social-security-recipients-get-15-cola.html
Wednesday, October 30, 2013. Social Security Recipients Get 1.5% COLA. A personal opinion on what ails government. Among other sources, announced Social Security benefits for nearly 58 million people would increase by 1.5 percent in 2014. Based on the average pay to retired workers of $1,272 a month, that means we will receive about $19. Boy, I can hardly wait to run out and buy something with all that extra money! That amount is shared half by employers and half by employee withholding from their wages.

Insight & Outsight: November 2011
http://insightandoutsight.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 13, 2011. Occupy Portland Sets an Example. Occupy Portland, Mayor Adams and Police Chief Mike Reese did not set out to make Portland an example for other cities to follow in handling the broader Occupy Wall Street events. But that is exactly what they did. In the one physical conflict that occurred injuring a police person, the resolution came from the main body of the Occupy members who interceded and turned the hoodlum over to the police. Many have moved out of the parks. Numbers of tr...

Insight & Outsight: Economic Insanity, Again?
http://insightandoutsight.blogspot.com/2013/10/economic-insanity-again.html
Thursday, October 10, 2013. Economic Insanity, Again? By Daniel J. Perin. We are- you and me as we learn of the issues and vote responsibly (not just during presidential election years). It is the off-year elections where you send representatives to the House Of Representatives, currently held by intractable Republicans who are blocking ANY serious action. How many of us have yelled out on Twitter, Facebook, or other social/news media outlets: "Throw all the bums out and start over"? Tomgram: Ann Jones, ...
