Post of the day.

It is criminal that the backbone of this country, the Great Generation, is being targeted they way they are.

Get used to it. Our masters know that when they have cut down on the goodies, the 60-90 years olds will be less violent than the 15-45 year old inner city dwellers that have literally no skills except for drawing handouts from Uncle Sugar.

They can afford to have grandma starve if necessary; she and the rest of the Tuesday bridge club gals are not going go loot and burn down the Supermarket on the other side of the freeway, which is what would happen if the WIC cards stopped working.

It's despicable. Their voices are weak now. Literally, a whisper in a hurricane. I've stared at net pictures from those years and still it blows my mind. That, having spent 26 years in the military, myself.

Salute to you, brave brothers in arms and Semper Fi, my brother Marines, especially. Your legacy is safe as long as we are still around. I can't speak for the later Gen-Xers or the Millinials(sp?). Technically, I'm Generation Jones (tail end Boomer), but I have nothing in common, whatsoever, with Boomers.

It is the perfect crime we have foisted on ourselves by trying to do what our parents did for us—make life better for the next generation. Except that now, it has derailed. We have more and mroe “kids” now expecting more for doing far less. And they really don’t get what is currently happening, because they are still really not footing the bills to the extent that it hurts them.
