There is no excuse for a rich country like America to suffer hunger and poverty. It hurts to think about it.

This essay is on target!

I feel the same way, Sheri. Part me want to live forever, and part of me is grateful that I won’t.

I am grateful in a way to be old - I won't see the worst of what is to come, but so so sad for those who are going to be here to have to live in a place and time that will be even worse than it is today. Yet, as I was out in my car yesterday, going to shop for some food, listening to Joan Baez singing the Phil Ochs song, 'There But For Fortune', I was thinking of Navalny being imprisioned for speaking and acting in opposition to Putin and then, how even my posts on FB might be the kind of thing to get some of us imprisioned one day. We have a dismal Democratic Party with no real cohesion in our federal or state governments, state governments that are killing us, and no leadership to galvanize a national vote that could wipe these bastards out of business! Yes - we are in deep trouble in a world that has no sense of how to fix itself....
