...As an adult, I have witnessed the world I grew up in fall to ruin. I have watched as our currency and our economy have been shamelessly corrupted beyond redemption. Since we’ve been married, my husband and I TWICE had our meager investment savings gutted by the market that we were told to invest in, now that pensions no longer exist and we working stiffs are on our own. We will be working until we die, because the Social Security we’ve been forced to pay into has also been robbed from under us...

Yeah I know just making fun of typo ... since I do typos all the time.
Often people who have been assaulted or robbed, especially a home robbery have the same sort of affect this woman is demonstrating. When you consider what has happened to her personally and the country, she certainly has been robbed and assaulted. Her money has been taken by confiscatory taxes that she couldn’t avoid and for which she and her hard working husband received little. Her political rights have even been stolen in a fraudulent election. She is being told she does matter and there is no way to seek redress. She has every right to be angry even mad as hell.
I was thinking “OPUS.”

Sadly,
Even “Slo Joe” looks
“Wore Out.”

I assume they’re still getting social security and of course it’s a lousy return on the money we were forced to contribute but the payments are still coming. For now at least.
Regarding the market - I wonder what they invested in - the market recovered from the crash. You have to pay attention.
I understand being pissed off...we all are ....but you have to take responsibility for yourself.
I live in a conservative area, and have no reason to make life difficult for the people working at my polling place. As far as I know, they're all good people.
I might write in Trump's name in 4 years, but other than that I can't see myself voting again. I found voting for McCain to be such a nauseating experience that I steered clear of voting in every election after that until Trump came along, and then only voted for him the second time. I expected that they'd cheat to keep him from winning the first time. Just turned out that they so believed the polling that they didn't ramp up the fraud levels that were needed for Hillary to win. They won't ever make that mistake again.
Laughing so much.

Sounds like 80% of Free Republic. 😉
Powerful piece, gorgeous writing. Did you write this? If so, a round of applause. If not, thanks for posting.
“Make them work for the steal”
Taint much work to drop it in the shredder.
‘A title like that reads like someone needs to call a suicide prevention hotline.’
I called those guys once; they tried to talk me into it...
I have a friend in California who told me he took down his flag.
I asked him, “Do you see any Mexican flags?”
“No.”
“Any American flags?”
“Three neighbors.”
“Then its safe to hoist the Flag.”
“It makes me sad.”
“Your neighbors raise the flag for you. And they would appreciate it if you raise
it for them.”
“But I don’t feel patriotic right now.”
“I can give you 75 million reasons to feel patriotic.”
Yes, I give her respect and feel her pain.
that said, we can’t give up the fight. I will never raise that white flag with her.
I can think of several here who fit that description. :-)
Ahh c’mon!
What the he11!
You musta read it.
Excellent post. I feel everything she said. She wrote it so well.
Her finale was great:
“I was raised to be a lady, and ladies don’t curse, but ***k these mother***kers to hell and back for what they’ve done to me, and mine, and my country. All we Joe Blow Americans ever wanted was a little patch of land to raise a family, a job to pay the bills, and at least some illusion of freedom, and even that was too much for these human parasites. They want it all, mind, body and soul. Damn them. Damn them all.”
I agree 100%.
I thought it was another OPUS.
LOL Thanks for the chuckle! Much needed. :-)
Is that you, Mr. Dangerfield?
