This is a sad, sad world / Full of shrieks and hollers and fat lies/ no doubt ...

but still I hope in the rumble of distant chaos the few smart humans

still dedicated to the task of improving the world will

ultimately have an impact/ help us turn a corner.

But it's very hard to change anything let alone

much in this world so constrained by

ignorance and debt. Keep telling

the truth. It helps. Thanks.

Until we get the millions off of the government freebees, we will never balance anything!....Congress continues to give out money and goods to people who have NO intention of ever getting off of the pork. Everyone of them should be vetted. Welfare was not designed to feed 3 generations of the same people. That was the downfall of the US. Not taxes, not DOGE, not Trump. Bring back Ellis Island, screen these people, and shut the borders. I have known a lot of government workers. Most of them do as little as possible, and dream of the retirement check. Sorry, but true. That includes politicians that stay in for 40 years. This is the problem!

Yep. The incentives are clearly broken across the board, and so the system just perpetuates itself instead of fixing anything.

Promise her anything, but give her Arpege. Remember that one? Trump does. And don't forget that those 270,000 people who got fired are no longer paying any taxes, so it's even worse than you said.
