I mean, aren’t we trillions of dollars in debt? And, maybe like me, you do not want another check from the government.

That being said, I do know a couple of things for sure and thought I would pass them on. We deal in a world that thinks what we FEEL is truth. Well, that is simply not so. Truth is absolute; like 2+2=4. Even if I wished it...
