Reality and truth, so overrated. šŸ˜‰
Yeah, you have to question and take everything with a grain of salt. That's in politics.

To a broker, reality, truth, accuracy = quite important. So yes, I am even more diligent with real estate issues because politics is theater. Real estate is not.
Not that there can't be plenty of drama!

Politicians wouldn't lie!Ā  Yes CA really did have a drought.Ā  No, those lines in the sky aren't weather controlling chemtrails.Ā  Yes a high speed rail line that uses busses is still a high speed rail.Ā  No, that contract was awarded to Senator Feinstein's husband's company because it was the only one that used busses, not because he's married to Sen. Feinstein.Ā  Yes, guns are the problem not the criminals we're letting free who go and use them.

There are a lot of facts that just aren't true.

The numbers don't lie but statisticians do. And from this origin, transgression occurs.
