It’s awful.

I know people who have fled and are in the U.S. legally. I met one of their relatives who is here on a visit and who will be returning soon.

Her husband died and after the sale of her home, she had money in the bank to live out her life. Now with inflation, her savings won’t buy a loaf of bread.

But she smiles, talks of her children there - bright, educated but trapped.

I asked how she could smile and she asked what else could she do?

The kids should get out before they are killed.

Forget the cheese, get out of the trap.
