Wife and I paid 25K in Federal Withholding. Sold some stocks and paid another 5K in taxes on top of that. Hope the "Free Loaders" enjoy it...

The entitlement class getting ahead of the tax-paying working class is another indication that our
society/civilization is transitioning to the next stage.
This is also an indication that the US *could* be past it's peak, or at least in a dip from the peak,
and we need something solid to get back into the the upswing, for both quality of life and the US
position on the global stage. The emerging nations are catching up fast and they are taking the
manufacturing from the US. So, we cannot go back to that to pick ourselves up, unless the US
drops wages to be competitive. A catch-22 and our position of strength is less than what it used
to be. So, navigating this situation will not be easy nor quick.
Best thing to do is reap the abundance of our situation now while we still have it, and secure it.
This has a lot of connotation behind it. Be prepared and be nimble in order to make adjustments.
Individuals and the gov't should be doing this.
The vast masses in the US are not doing this due to one reason or another.
With the size and scope of changes that have been going on during the recent unpleasantness,
known consequences and unintended consequences will be damaging to many who are not
prepared or not nimble.
The US has too much built on vapor, it will need something solid to keep on the upswing
(well actually just to hold the line). I'm referring to quality of life, and the US position on the
global stage.
Emerging nations are eating our lunch, so it will be difficult for the US to navigate these times
without imposing our ordinance, which is also conveniently self-serving.

I read quite a bit, so you will be able to find individual things floating around the web along
the same lines, but my post is a synthesis of several things that I see related to the original
post's topic. This is not a copy paste from a single source.
If you find that my post is a plagiarism, let me know where you find it, so I can subscribe.
