Dying and Praying

Another day of watching us put heads on the chopping block. Be certain, someone will swing the hatchet. We are serving up lives for a few dollars that others are stealing from the tax pool of the U.S. Treasury. Our great grand children will never be able to pay off the U.S. debt that has gone up by 6 trillion dollars under this Republican/Trump administration. Some of it was certainly needed. Most of it wasn't. But the money is almost irrelevant: count the dead, count the bodies. And they don't care. They are the noble sacrifices to ignorance, greed, and hate. Hate your neighbor and it's fine if he dies. But worry if you become "the neighbor". Injustice has a way of equalizing out, just as justice has. The rich and famous, the money changers and CEOs are NOT dying in the hospitals. They aren't waiting 6 weeks for $1200 dollars to pay rent or buy food. Why not? Why are they "special". Our "Representatives" aren't working, they aren't even in Washington. They are watching TV from on top of the hill, above the coal mine, the metal mills, the auto factories, the Wall street money changing temples on Wall Street. Now they are about to make wars, so we will stop bitching about dying in the streets and can start dying on foreign shores, one more time. God help us all. And I'm an atheist, and they have me praying and hoping for good sense and good judgement to keep trying to make a good world. Good luck. Try and get enough so you can stay out of the food line or the hospital line or the funeral line. Be well, everyone.
