Items of Controversy

Aging Hipster says please, no new road from Savannah to Knoxville.

I fear the housing market will become more and more controversial in the days to come. Who’s to blame? How can this be fixed?

….and what about Hillary? SpacyG, along with Sara, may have the answer with Hillary's Media Makeover, and Sara provides the background regarding their collaboration.
