Can you imagine Joe Biden, Jerome Powell, and the 435 members of Congress actually doing these things? Bill, that would be a big no! For shits and giggles, lets just say they surprised us and decided to do the right thing. The bureaucrats would put the kibosh on these wrong thinkers before they had a chance to make it to the podium. Mencken was so spot on with this quote: "The only good bureaucrat is one with a pistol at his head. Put it in his hand and it's goodbye to the Bill of Rights." For those who choose to see, its fairly obvious who runs the country. If voting changed anything, they'd make it illegal. There's absolutely no fixing this baby. The best thing we can do for future generations is burn it to the ground and start over.

I am 72 years old and can look back on an enjoyable life (with a few bumps along the way) no matter how badly the clowns in Washington screw things up. But when I go to the grocery store and see the young children, with their eyes filled with joy and wonder, and realize how badly their lives will probably be because of the FUBAR world we will hand over to them, it makes me very angry and very sad at the same time. We look at the slaveholders of the 18th and 19th century with disgust and contempt for their treatment of black people. I wonder if the people of the 22nd century will look at us with disgust and contempt for our actions the last several decades.
