Yes, I spend more on things like gas and entertainment than most people, and yes, I could trim a bit by more careful grocery shopping (and ditching my nightly wine...), but it’s far, far more expensive than it used to be to maintain a standard of living.

The Middle Class, where I live, has been eviscerated. Over the past five years, my monthly expenses have increased nearly $2,000. I’ve not changed anything.

Same house, same car, same pretty much everything. Insurance, groceries, and literally everything else have just skyrocketed. (Example: took a friend to lunch. We both had BLTs. He had water. I had iced tea. The tab, with tip was $54. Going out for lunch used to be fun. Not any more!). That $2K used to be MY money.

Americans hate morality with a passion.

One wonders if Snowden regrets throwing away his life to warn ungrateful Americans about unconstitutional NSA wire-tapping.

We're all wasted!

You don't get freedom by growing the police state.

Starting a trade war, closing the border, bombing countries, banning bump stocks, outlawing protests, ending due process, giving the police immunity, launching nationwide stop and frisk, extending NSA wiretapping, and buying Greenland doesn't pay off the debt, end the wars, or restore the Bill of Rights.

Americans will say that you are a drama queen if you oppose extrajudicial assassinations of Americans by the US government.

The USA is a bankrupt warmongering police state, but nothing will change because Americans think everything is just fine.
