Thanks for listening. In this episode we talk about critical thinking and why we need leaders who will listen to professionals to make decisions without being influenced by cultural icons or those who aren't educated in the subject. And yes, this discussion is based off the current administrations lack of listening to professionals and the effect it will have on local business and the care for your animals. And also, perhaps it may show you how well you listen to professionals because I know in my business I'm constantly trying to convince people I have the knowledge, skills, and experience to guide them professionally.

I'm not sure what this year will bring. While I pray I'm wrong I see the rise of fascism or the collapse of sanity in America. The ripple effects will devastate this country and the world.

Here is our final episode of the season and I'm happy to say we have episodes already on the patreaon for members to listen to and that will be posted next season in 2025 for everyone. This episode dives into politics and patriotism. With such an important election looming we can't hide from this subject because all of our daily lives will be affected by the results of this election. I encourage voting against extremism guiding us down a facist road. I think it's important to have this discussion because I truly believe America gives so many people the opportunity to achieve their dreams in this world and despite our flaws does make the world a better place. I am concerned that with this election we could lose what makes America great and I wish to put into words how important it is to vote against extremism so we focus on making our lives and the world around us a better place.Patreon https://www.patreon.com/theveterinarypodcasthttps://www.facebook.com/theveterinarypodcasthttps://lickingvalleyvet.com/projects/
