In today’s United States, being a stand alone person that tries not to be a burden on anyone, it can seem like we’re in fairly lonesome territory.
There are all sorts of programs to entice us off this plateau. By the very definition it seems to me there can’t be any to help to keep us here, but you would think there wouldn’t be so many efforts that seem to hinder our ability to stay here.
Perhaps it’s too simplistic of an explanation but the old saw ‘misery loves company’ comes to mind in regard to the Progressive’s obsession with dragging everyone down.
