Your musings on retirement leave me neurotic.
My generation will not be able to partake in social security benefits. This makes me obsess about not being able to save enough money and a therefore becoming bag lady wearing a dirty crochet hat scrounged from the garbage, who wanders the streets subsisting on ketchup packets and government cheese.
The horror.
The run on sentence.
The sad truth is that the people in DC do not represent us. They only care about themselves. We are kept too busy to do anything about it. Who has time to protest everything that this government does? Even if we did have the time, the majority of us are too lazy to anything about it. Sigh.
