Thomas Michael Smith.  I am an American, but mostly I am a human being on a spiritual path trying to make sense of this world.  For most of my life, my work endeavor involved investments and banking.  I am a centrist, but I do have a libertarian bent. My God is all encompassing, powerful and compassionate.  I have worked hard and I resent the wasteful and corrupt nature of  the Government in the USA and the inattention most seem to give to happenings that don’t impact their self interest Turns out that Adam Smith was right.
