He should not be allowed to screw up our country’s assets. He should not be allowed near them.

unless he's 30 years in (about another year) is feeling it already. They're a good, honest company. I am in mortal terror of a continued shutdown. We can't live on cut-back SS. He's 67, I'll be 65 in July. His benefits are not enough, and mine don't kick in till 2020. Not up here. The company is decent with retirement pay; no complaints as it's a matching fund and there are times it's all beans and rice but worth it.

I'm scared down to the bone. A LOT of the business depends on Federal and military spending. In addition, with the tariffs, they're finding it difficult to order the materials they need.

FUCK TRUMP AND THE GOP HE RODE IN ON.
