Those of us oldies that have defined contribution pensions are getting scared of the economy. My CREF account (a well run conservative stock fund) was down 11%. I am not retired as yet. My wife has never had a job since we married 42 years ago and watches the propaganda on the nation news and is not worried. But she thinks that her “frugality” is all that we need to manage are old life while my daughter’s husband thirsts for the inheritance. Well we have to pay of gas, water, electricity, food an medicine etc.
A leftists government elected by the very rich, the blacks and kids will destroy our lives.
The children of old parents who love and respect their parents will not be happy about their parents becoming poor. Few will be getting fat from the government but some will and will help their parents. But many people will be in the situation that the Germans were in after WW1. But Americans do not have a culture of war for power and profit that the German middle and upper classes had before WW1.
So I ask the bloggers here: who will conquer the US?
