“America’s travel resurgence is finally here… Despite worries over persistent inflation, banking-sector woes and the debt-ceiling standoff, people are probably going to be spending a lot of time, and money, on trips. This should provide some support for the economy in the months ahead.”

“For many, work is a collection of tasks, not a collection of hours in a certain place…. Taking time for yourself during the work day doesn’t make you lazy, and working a bit on vacation doesn’t make you a workaholic. Dispensing with strict time boundaries should also mean ditching the guilt you might feel for either.”
Los Angeles Times (October 21)
“As more communities across California require proof of vaccination at many retailers and other public venues, the battle over enforcement of the new rules is just beginning to heat up.” Though “many businesses have welcomed these sorts of rules,” others resent the additional burden enforcement places on them in terms of time and staffing requirements, as well as the potential for conflict.

“After the long night of Covid-19, a faint glow is visible on the horizon.” Pfizer’s 90% efficacy is more than we could dream for in a vacine, but the “euphoria should be tempered; any return to normality will take time…. Science has made a breakthrough. But don’t throw away your face covering just yet.”

“China bought the West time. The West squandered it.” In the U.S. and Europe, the attitude has largely “been bizarrely reactive, if not outright passive… governments in those regions have let pass their best chance to contain the virus’s spread.” Why did “so many countries watch the epidemic unfold for weeks as though it was none of their concern?”

“The Trump administration is absolutely bonkers—which comes as a surprise to no one at this point, but it’s remarkable how many different ways it manifests itself.” His administration is one growing knot of contradictions. “Time and truth are fluid when you’re the mayor of ‘crazy town.’” The only thing we know is that “nothing the president says can be believed, and no threatened or promised action can be trusted until, in fact, it has happened.”

Brexit has become the “mother of all messes. Solving the crisis will need time—and a second referendum.”
Time (December 7)
“To his believers, he delivers change—broad, deep, historic change, not modest measures doled out in Dixie cups; to his detractors, he inspires fear both for what he may do and what may be done in his name.” Time magazine named Donald Trump their Person of the Year because he “had the greatest influence, for better or worse, on the events of the year.”

“Reducing Europe’s dependence on Russian gas is possible—but it will take time, money and sustained political will.” With his belligerence and threats, Putin has indirectly done Europe’s leaders a favor by galvanizing their collective will. “They already knew what to do. They just didn’t want to do it.”
