Yes. There are a lot of solid reasons for what is going on. This is all real stuff. Lots and lots of problems. I’m very close to retirement so to an extent “I don’t care” but I have real sympathy for young people trying to start out.

Yes, plenty of them are annoying, and woke, and all of that. But this coming generation has just about everything stacked against them. The Global Order is going to ruin their lives.

People who talk about how tough they had it in 1980 really don’t understand that this isn’t the same country today. At all.

And one of the tricks the Democrats are going to pull is to claim that Americans are wealthier now because their home values have gone up so much.

While technically true, it’s misleading, because even if you sold the house and got the money, where are you going to live? If you want to live in a similar place, you’re just going to have to pay all that money for the new place, so you aren’t better off at all.

When I was her age I had a job that made me want to cry.

I was a night manager at Arby’s.

The staff was me and one other guy.

One night after midnight a bus full of people show up—all wanting their food and wanting it fast.

We did the best we could but some of them still had to wait a half hour or so.

That was the good part.

The shocker was a week later when I was told that one of the customers at that time was not from the bus but was a “secret shopper” who complained that we were way too slow and seemed stressed out...

Lol—yeah because we were too slow and stressed out.

What was a secret shopper doing out there in the middle of the night?

Nasty stuff.
