If I miss one social security check, I'll be ok, and I have someone to depend on if it goes on longer. I've stocked up on shelf stable food so I won't have to buy that for a while. I'm also in Illinois, and our state government is determined to support us if things go sideways. I shudder to think of people who are living hand to mouth, especially in poor red states that depend on federal money flowing from blue states to them. They don't deserve this horseshit.

This is what a dying empire looks like; a seething, roiling cauldron of incompetence, malfeasance and arrogance, heated to a boil by a false sense of entitlement and magical thinking.
