It was a radical idea in 1776 & it’s a radical idea today: that govts are instituted to secure “the right of all people to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Someone economically locked down in a survival mode from which they can’t escape is not free to pursue happiness

Older people don’t so much remember better days as we remember a time when people knew enough to guffaw at the idea that average Americans would be so routinely economically screwed as they are now. We knew things were supposed to be better & that it was govt’s job to make it so.

People are free in this country to change their job and any subsidizing baby the Dems are in the front of the line with pork holding up a bill originally conceived to help all of us. But the Dems got their raise even though they are millionaires. That's obscene.

Old "nobility" could do as they liked, within reason, without fear of laws. Everyone knew they gave orders to the people who wrote and enforced them. Their wealth was generally inherited, with only a lucky few ascending. What's the diff between a duke and most billionaires?

"Work" at "jobs they hate". That's why it's called going to Work, not going to Fun. Don't like paying off debts? Don't agree to be encumbered by them and take the money. So simple.
