The Issues You Don't Talk About Cafe Monthly Meetup

***Note the date change***
This Meetup is about the sharing of ideas in a public and open forum where participants can come to learn and teach. In order for people to feel comfortable expressing their, what may be controversial, views we aim to create an environment that is not absent passion, but is cordial to people who may even have extreme views. It is incumbent upon all participants to contribute in fostering that environment.

The Meetup is divided into three consecutive sections:
I. One Minutes - An icebreaker. We go around the room and ask each person to state their first name and then talk about anything that is on their mind for approximately one minute.

II. Topical discussion - The heart of the Meetup where we put a topic on the table and ask those who choose to share any opinion or idea around the topic.

III. Meetup after the Meetup - This is the end of the "formal" Meetup and where the healthy debate can take place.

If there are rules to this Meetup, these are them:

• BE RESPECTFUL TO EVERYONE regardless of their views on any subject.
• Bring your voice and passion, but leave your anger and condescension at home.
• If you get angry at differing opinions, please realize that this is not the place for you and kindly do not attend.
• Eat, drink and be merry and tip well if you can.
• We don't have to leave as friends, but we can't leave as enemies.

As usual there is a lot to talk about. I will be placing current topics here as late as an hour before the event every meeting. If the issues look a bit old, then I just haven't gotten to doing this yet.
Here are some of the topics we could explore:

Are you still giving President Trump the benefit of the doubt?

Did you buy the dip (in the stock market)? You should be pretty happy right now.

I look forward to talking to you all.
