“The problem seems to be that we’ve had it so good for so long that when we are inconvenienced in some way, most people whine and cry like little girls...Hello, we have been the most pampered and spoiled generation ever and now we are getting the wake up call that life is not all bread and circuses.”
I suspect that you think like me. Many times I’ve thought about just how wealthy and lucky we are, and how that could all disappear. I’ve seen enough of it around the world, seeing houses in Bosnia with the front face blasted off, to show FIRST WORLD living, with nice rooms and garages, with new model cars and washing machines - and it all ended literally overnight for them. I always knew that it could all end that fast here too.
But others cannot conceive of it...or else they wouldn’t have allowed us to get sold out to China and sit on our military as if no other country was modernizing (particularly Russia and China)...just thinking that we are the USA! and therefore invincible. All the while claiming there are 62 genders and that there’s nothing wrong with drag queens recruiting little kids in library reading rooms, while they visit their ‘therapist’ twice a week.
Hopefully these people will come out of this humbled a bit...but it’s just painful to have to deal with their very slow capability to accept reality. But I think that with stores in many areas now virtually empty of food, that process may speed up a bit.
Yep, it’s a wake-up call. People aren’t going to take things for granted anymore.
We just assumed those supermarket shelves would always be full.
