Dear Friends and Bloggers,

As some of you know and some may not know, this year has been extremely difficult for me to comprehend. I also know that I am not alone with this disruption in our lives that caught so many of us off guard and feeling desolate and depressed. What I offer is my personal opinion of the outcome of the election, its aftermath and my acceptance of the results. It does not come easily to say I took such a downturn during the campaign and the election that I sought medical help that precipitated some changes in the meds and a period of being alone, away from my family and friends to do some deep thinking of life and a way forward. I am still a work in progress but I am making progress. At the clinic, my doctor shared with me that there has been an increase in patients seeking help for mental issues as a result of our election, so know that you are not alone in this and together we may find a way forward to right the devastating wrong that has been inflicted upon us.

Thinking through the events of this past year. I realize that my anger is justified and my belief in the goodness of such a large percentage of our population was totally misplaced. After all the evidence dealing with the deceitful, bigoted, misogynistic and careless behavior and disregard for most of the people in this country came to light and was reported extensively, how the Republican/Maga candidate for our top office still was able to win, not just once but twice is astounding and mysterious. The bottom line – mean spirited and hateful people vote for mean spirited and hateful candidates. This was made abundantly clear on November 5th, this is part of our history now and my hope is that the authors that pen America’s story will report what transpired and that it will not be able to be silenced and whitewashed. Which leads me to consider this important fact; the reasons for America’s involvement in World War II and the allied forces that believed in the concept of a democracy united to end the ruthless takeover of the world by a handful of dangerous demagogues, was scrupulously chronicled in thousands of texts, yet her we are again witnessing a group of power-hungry billionaires intent on damaging our way of life, and it is certain to affect all of us in some way.

America has become a nation of a miniscule group of sadists(those desiring to inflict pain and suffering for their pleasure) and a large population of masochists(those deriving pleasure from oppression and being beaten down and disadvantaged). Consider the people of the Southern United States, people who vote for the Republican ticket time and time again, and rarely benefit from the decisions their representatives in Congress make for them. They remain in poverty, being the citizens who use most of the aid from the government, with the least of educational benefits and poorest economies in the nation.

I think we can all agree that these next 4 years are going to be a challenge, but I actually hope for the worst. I want the next president to surround himself with the dumbest and least experienced people he can find, and it looks like he’s doing an excellent job making that happen. I want them to enact all kinds of laws that will further impoverish and inconvenience the middle and lower class. That may sound harsh but at the end of my life approaching fast I have little to lose as a senior on a fixed income. A reality check and a kick in the pants is what’s needed for our younger generations to know that they’ve been coddled and babied and now’s the time to feel true pain. I want the threatened tariffs to wreck the economy and send even the monied few into a tailspin of desperation. The common people need to live life with gas at $12.00 a gallon, compact cars selling for $80,000.00, eggs at $16.00 and mandatory insurance for home and car that will cost what no one can afford. The abject severity should open the eyes of the blind, deaf and stupid that voted for this most miserable excuse for a human being.

The turnaround won’t happen soon. It will take an uprising of unfathomable determination unseen since WWII to begin the reparations needed for our fragile democracy to survive. I hope for that, seems hope is all we have at this minute. As a meme I saw recently said, if we can eat one billionaire, the others will fall in line. Possibly not, but it would be fun to witness the reaction. Thank you very much for your time. All of you inspire me every day with the work you do on your blogs. ~ Milleson
