HEADLINES

 How many of you read the headlines each day to see what is going on locally, around your state, around your country or around the world?

I would venture to say that only about 20% of the people in the USA do this and it is mainly the older citizens rather than the younger ones.

Americans under 35-40 typically don't give a damn about what is going on in the world either domestically or internationally because they perceive there is not a damn thing they can do to change it...  not even voting is really going to change what happens in Washington DC.

Believe it or not, politicians count on that apathy which is why many of them have been re-elected for 20+ years.

Politicians love to hear themselves talk and they love to promise the voters all sorts of things that they have no intention of fulfilling...

WHY IS THAT?

Because once, a politician gets to Congress whether it is on the House side of the fence or the Senate side of the fence, they VOTE ACCORDING TO WHAT THE PARTY WANTS and not according to their constituents who voted for them.

At 76 years of age and being involved with politics in the 60s thanks to JFK, I have realized that the problems we had in 60s are the same problems we had in 2020 and the same problems we are still having today.

NOTHING CHANGES, except the party in charge of making the decisions...  and while you my think that is a great idea, let me explain it to you this way.

When Biden won the presidency from Trump, through Executive Orders, he undid everything that Trump had put into place.

Now, when Biden loses the presidency to a Republican, they are going to UNDO everything that Biden put into place.

THIS IS NOT PROGRESS...

THIS IS JUST POLITICS...

And while the politicians get more wealthy the longer, they stay in Congress, the American people get more apathetic, lazier, and poorer financially.

BUT NOTHING HAPPENS.

WHY?

NO ONE CARES ABOUT THE HEADLINES...
