I have no illusion as to the veracity of what you say, I have met them and trying to change their mind is an exercise in futility.
Even taking them down the road of where is all the money going to come from as even if you take all the “rich peoples” money it will only hold up the Government as it is for at best 2-3 months
Then what?
They are coming for you!
They most likely think they are, but they are coming for themselves as well, they just don't realize it. 8>)
