"Where's our president on this?"
I'll tell you where he is. He's busy trying to figure out how to keep this country from being incenerated or injected with some foul pox. And that's just where my child and I want him. Not trying to keep afloat some mismanaged cash hog. LPs aren't in style anymore either but you don't see any legislation being passed or any funding for that 1 dude in your town who still sells vinyl, do you?
NEWS FLASH: People today are more entertained by sports teams and pop stars. The sign of high culture, no. Reality, yes. Live with it. Baseball teams and N-Sync make money. Gertrude on fiddle and some brass blowhards playing Nielsen do not.
