I really wonder at times if this is Free Republic or it is Big Givernment Republic. Many people beleive that they are owed a way of life and prosperity and they seem to equate that with freedom. They do not flinch at bringing government force down onto anyone who may infringe on their little slice of crony capitalism, government favoritism, or handout. The same people who claim they will die defending the 2A won’t hestitate to regulate the rest of us if it helps their personal situation. I’m not sure what they are defending.
Agreed
Less than 10 years ago i lost north of 7 figures on some bad investments (Took us a long time to accumulate that) and will take while to replace it and delay my retirement at least 10 years
Never asked or expected anyone to bail me out for my own misguided decisions
But I sure as hell learned from them
