We may be witnessing the birth of a new Europe.

72. Human civilization for much of our history was totally bloody and brutal with no humanity shown to working class.

That is what tsf wants to return us to, the desperation the Russians felt when they had to line up all day to buy potatos which were their only food of the day but the oligarchs were spending billions for themselves. I expect the same here shortly with a side of mass killings when ACA, Medicaid and Medicare are effectively killed off. I cant work, have too many memory and health issues and who is going to hire a partially disabled 73 year old in the first place? We are doing well now, but live on social security and a small pension and we couldn't survive on the pension alone. Thank God our house is 100% paid for as are both our cars and we have no surgeries planned.

I don't know how I could love life with fascism running rampant and getting worse on a daily basis if I have virtually no income? My husband is younger, and knows a place that would hire him tomorrow, but the drive is awful and his back is bad and would get worse if he goes back to being on his feet all day. That is the only way I see we could make it and I'd hate that for him. Sigh.
