This article just hits home. I am living my senior years now worried about half of my monthly income being gutted ( SS and VA widow’s annuity). Then also being worried about people I come in contact with being hard core crazy magats when I am out and about running errands, grocery shopping or just on the freeway ( road rage). These cretinous evil fascist people have altered my “retirement “ years into anger at fellow Americans. These people who support and/or voted for the rapey felon traitor, whether due to racism , indifference to reality, or being willfully ignorant of the malevolent policies of trump/musk have ushered in a collapse of the very agencies that have been developed to protect us, the people of this country. I never thought I would witness this threat to our nation from within by the malignant cancer, the super rich, in real time against Americans and people rolling over and succumbing to propaganda by right wing media the way many Americans have. These malignant billionaires hate a functioning democracy because then people would stand up for their rights. But again, it takes effort to research and fact check the “news” and too many Americans are complacent and indifferent. As Thom says, “Democracy is not a spectator sport.”

Your comment absolutely reflects my situation and my thoughts. Isn’t Dr. Hartmann the best?

"The price of liberty is eternal vigilance."

OR

"Eternal vigilance is the price we pay for liberty."

Either works.

@ Kathy. With respect to SS check out Ed Weir. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fvpu0J0t6fw. Free. I have no relationship with him. He tracks it daily, cn answer questions.

Thank you, we’re all getting mixed messages about SS but I just read on someone’s post that the muskrat criminal cabal is looking at “replacing “ the COBOL computer system with “something else “ so I have to conclude that they are going to deconstruct SS from inside the major system.
