When Do We Hit the Bottom of the Rabbit Hole?


To the Moon 

So. Now the plan is to spend 20 billion dollars to build a livable structure on the moon and send astronauts there every six months. To what end? In the meantime, insurance subsidies have been pulled, housing is in short supply and outrageously expensive. We are spending billions on an unauthorized war we started, with the help of Israel, eying Cuba as the next place to show our superiority and turning longtime allies into foes. The cost of living has become unlivable, for many, truly. Yet, fly me to the moon. Yep. That's a solid plan. Hey, are we great yet? Cause I think if we were mediocre before I'd rather that.

Well said. It enrages ne that we have squandered so much money on such stupid, unnecessary things that are only ego builders for the few at the top.

All of it makes my head hurt.

Hope you find something to do to let the stress of this go. I know it's not easy for sure and things are NUTS. But I am concerned for your stress levels and what it will do to you. Hang in there.

The brutal way the Iranian regime treats dissidents is appalling, but it's good to see Iran standing up to Trump and exposing his utter stupidity in starting a war entirely on impulse.

CheerfulMonk said...

Add it to the list of craziness. 😕

Sandra said...

Asinine, Lori.

Isn't this supposed to be the party of fiscal responsibility, Sue?

Sandra said...

Humorous and true, AC.

Sandra said...

It's difficult to see the end of this, Miss Merry.

I'm so sorry I am causing you concern, Ivy. I'm as ok as one can be right now. I am an intense person and political. My education is in European History and Political Science. I need to be connected and sometimes that includes having something to say on my blog. Yes, sometimes I feel overwhelmed, but we are in overwhelming times. It's kind of you to care enough to mention it. I do appreciate that.

Sandra said...

Yes, there is no arguing that the Iranian government is brutal. That was never the reason for what we and Israel are doing, nick.

Sandra said...

It's a long list, Cheerful.

Absolutely mind boggling isn’t it? I think that’s the point. They are playing a shell game with us and the rest of the world.

Linda's Relaxing Lair said...

It seems never-ending 😕

Sandra said...

A shell game we are losing, Denise. Yet, there seems to be no restraints. I wonder what the founders and those who fought the war that separated us from a king would think about this? They would be appalled.

Sandra said...

Probably because it has been, Linda.

"Tommy" said...

Yep my sentiments also. !!!

Bohemian said...

He definitely is asset stripping America.

Sandra said...

You are one of the sane, Tommy.

Sandra said...

Good way of putting it, Dawn.
