And all to fund tax cuts for the wealthy - who don’t need them.

Exactly - they can’t use Russia’s military strength as the boogie-man any longer.

Boeing (just one example) has been pushing for lower or self regulation for a while.

The libertarian BS is going to set America back a century - in many respects.

I skimmed over your line “living envy the dead” - that’s an awesome turn of phrase.

I’m sure many (most?) people would want to stop/reduce climate change before this gets worse.

However line-must-go-up capitalism says no, because money.

The entire congress can be bought either outright or with the threat of a primary challenger that is extremely well funded. That will get whoever the ultra-rich wants in line.

We are entirely screwed. I hope I’m wrong though.

Woot! Thank you!
