On the wall verses on the table.

My punctuation and spelling are as intented,

From a discussion[*] on the Wiemar Republic and the issue of gun control springs the economic impact in the Treaty of Versailles*, the word Realpolitik, crept into my search which landed me on Noopolitik which brought me this source on a letter and this reference to Fred Kaplan. (My earlier comment on similar material including Fred Kaplan.)
[To be update as well as linked to economics--not to mention boat and recent links:
Humpty Dumpty
"Trust but verify"
Atlas
American Exceptionalism!]

* no pun on vs or vs., nor reliance on this article per se.
[bold links for referenced revisiting and no slouches embedded there]
[A Plan to B-Team: upgraded in progress]
[especially naught / exactly]

[*] this is not necessarily the discussion but the source was the Thom Hartmann show last week to which I had my own contribution via the ethernet, I might per se.
