And it's not even because of my situation I'm good. It's the state of the country and watching what's happening to it it's just sad people are sick dying getting thrown out of their houses hungry and we got assholes In Washington who don't give A fuck

6. I hear you. My situation is okay, but I fear for those who don't have the resources that I do.

Those folks who are one paycheck away from homelessness (or less,) who don't have enough food for their children, who have loved ones sick or dying from C-19 or other health problems. It just seems that no one cares and we are all looking for help, for a lifeline. I don't believe there will be a savior for us. We need to save ourselves, but we need help from those who have helped us in the past (until tRUMP took over.) I think we need something from our democratic representatives and senators that they truly understand our plight as a nation. We might need to pour out en masse like never before with added boycotts or strikes.

Honestly, I don't know what to do other than read everything I can, voice my opinions, stay involved in local politics (even though I live in a red, red, red, red, district. Vote. Post stuff on social media. I will never give up.
