It is challenging to not be caught up in our ‘spont’ and resisting the most base levels of our nature is indeed what elevates us above animals and such who would imperil our civilization and posterity.
I have family. As a single father I spent years providing the barest essentials for my children. It was never easy. Over time we all got through it. Now they have their own families, and times are brighter for them. I made that.
When I see their futures under threat, I do react, sometimes in a fashion which may seem to be easily provoked and mindless. I compel myself to focus on where I came from.
Someday I may reveal aspects of my past, but these days I am concerned about the future, which often looks bleak in recent months.
I am trying.

Do you see how this connects?
You are pissed (like me) because you gave your children a better life, like all parents \in their hearts\ desire.
Now, the government you brought them up with, as changed into a beast of greed and envy.
And it’s trying to eat your children and theirs.
Destroying their hearts desire - that their children will have a better life than them and even you.
Like me, you feel like YOU have set them up for failure.
You didn’t.
God wins.
You sound like a GREAT Dad to me!
Do not be despaired!
You brought them up with great values-
taught them to work for what they need or want.
I think they will be fine, and they will see
and recognize what the government is doing.
Ya done good!
