Just to show that I really am patriotic, here's a video of the U S Marine Band playing John Philip Sousa's "The Liberty Bell". My father was fond of Sousa's marches, so we grew up listening to them on the old wind-up Victrola and marching around the room in time to the music.
H/T to Counterlight, who reminded me of Sousa's marches.

One of the things you never hear about from people who talk about the disastrous effects of socialism/communism on an economy is the wealth of China, from whom we good capitalists keep having to borrow.
ReplyDeleteTrue, Mark, but all too many of the Chinese people suffer deprivation, too.
