Quote of the Day
“We’re getting rid of so many roadblocks that prevent you from living your best life: Environmental regulations that get in the way of your energy independence, immigrants (legal ones too!), and late-night talk shows that keep you up at night thinking when you should be getting your eight hours of sleep.”
A satirical take on today's political climate, the Grosz pokes fun at the growing tendency to portray a wide range of societal challenges as the result of a few easily identifiable "roadblocks."
