I think my biggest problem, and sure, maybe I'm economically naive (likely), is that at least somebody is trying. The whole Repub attitude that we take good care of the best among us, and then hope that the goodness trickles down to everyone else just doesn't work. It doesn't work with money. It doesn't work with health. It just doesn't work. Maybe I'm a total socialist, but the self-first for the fortunate, then hope for the best for rest attitude seems like a pretty gigantic failure. So I'll take my chances on things, and pay the price if I'm wrong.
Hey you are a writer, you arent supposed to have a clue about money
