I was so inspired by the Occupy movement and the divide between the rich and poor that I came up with the idea for Robin Hood in Reverse. The title is actually a quote from Barack Obama during the 2012 presidential election. He said Mitt Romney’s tax plan was like “Robin Hood in reverse” because…

Even R.E.M.’s song “Exhuming McCarthy” mentions this word. And guess what? The first person to have some fun with “realpolitik” was none other…

Back in the groovy 1980s, Brett (mostly Brett, that is) was totally into reading books on existentialism by the one and only Jean-Paul Sartre. But that’s not all, folks! He also dabbled in the works of Nietzsche, Spinoza, Kant, Lao-Tzu, and more. Fast forward to 1997, when Brett was faced with the ultimate question: Socrates…
