My neighbors are Democrats (seniors) and I tried before the election to set them straight on some things. The man of the house got a bit upset and told me to just wait until Obama took charge of the economy. I went over there today and he told me he does not feel it is going to get better and he is not happy with all these bailouts. He called them ALL crooks up there and he and his wife both see the pork in these bills. I know they have been worried and I knew they would have something to say. I of course explained to them that their electric bills will go up due to Obama’s energy plans and he will tax them and business into the ground. How groceries bills will go up, etc.. They were all ears. I did not see resistance today. Tomorrow I will explain rationed healthcare.
Amazin’ how the cold hard slap of reality knocks some sense into some people.
Speaking of senior citizens and how they’re handling this, I live next door to a retirement home. Two weeks ago one of the residents took a gun and shot himself because his retirement funds had decreased so much. He didn’t know how he’d be able to afford the next years, so just killed himself. So sad.
