This is all very true. I recognize it. I understand it. It’s just a little more yucky when it’s as real as you, yourself, being the individual having to pay full freight on it. I’m talking about the whole “A recession is when your friend loses his job, a depression is when you lose yours.” perspective.
Major changes need to be made in short order, as the course we are on will leave us in a dark age of poverty for most, with a filthy rich, hunkered down, ever more insane, kleptocracy squandering the last of our once bountiful legacy: tossing pennies to the crowds, and spending billions rescuing the odd-eyed horn toad.
Tell me I'm wrong. You see it don't you.
