The division of Soft Power vs. Hard Power is well displayed in Trump's current Cabinet.

While it's fun to get emotional, I'm more interested in statistics. Has crime increased in Allentown since the 80s?

The only way to escape A Job is to earn passive income. The only way to do that in the Restaurant Industry is to own a chain/franchise.
