Trump's legacy will be generational.
The USA are no longer, trusted nor reliable as strategic, commercial, military, and political partners by the world family of nations.
They are just no longer reliable, therefore joint ventures will be a thing of the past.

2012-2019: there were 335,000 excess deaths (48,000 a yr) in England, Scotland & Wales due to poverty & austerity.
Over one-third of the deaths were under the age of 65 years i.e. majority were senior citizens.
Austerity kills but govts remain addicted.
No govt Bill ever explains the human cost.

Pensioner poverty in the world’s sixth largest economy is a political choice
The hardship inflicted on retirees now will surely visit future retirees unless steps are taken to alleviate misery.

If each Treasury payee is a separate record, and there are, say, 68,000,000 social security payees (as is estimated), then at $5000 per violation, it seems like Elon could be penalized $340 billion if he unlawfully accessed their Treasury records...

Sometimes, you have to step away from the shitstorm. There's a lot to take in right now, so take care of yourself first. This shit will wear you down. Don't allow it.
It's okay to let someone else carry this bucket of fucks for a day, or two.
Rest when you need to.

One of the coolest things about publishing a book in Norway is that the gov will automatically buy 1k copies, 1.5K if its a children's book, these will then be distributed to all the libraries.

Not a single person has been put on trial for killing 72 people at Grenfell.
But they can lock up non-violent protestors for 21 years, because they are a 'danger'.
