Aristo! Aristo! A la lanterne!: When in doubt, VOTE THEM OUT.

When in doubt, VOTE THEM OUT.

This upcoming election is at least as important as the last one (and this time that is true!).

The nation has a one-in-three chance of surviving economically. If the current Republicans, or any combination of Dem-Pubes share control of Congress, we are done. If reform minded Republican's willing to deal with the issues Musk uncovered have control, they *might* steer us towards the light, at least till the next career thief takes the Whitehouse. Any other combination at all spells economic doom for the United States. Congress for the last couple generations has been a 12 year old with a bottle of Vodka and all of mom's credit cards. No common sense, no accountability, and total self centered greed. We are deep, DEEP, in debt and sinking faster every minute. I suspect they think they can line their pockets and build their luxury estates, and stay immune from the peoples anger after it all crashes.

Hint... they would be wrong there, Sparky.

My voting criteria I'll take to the polls with me:

When is doubt, VOTE THEM OUT.
Always vote Republican unless I know they are a bad actor. (Often are)
Never vote Democrat unless I know they are rational, honest, and brave. (LOLOLOL)
When in doubt, VOTE THEM OUT.

"Do not confuse "duty" with what other people expect of you; they are utterly different. Duty is a debt you owe to yourself to fulfill obligations you have assumed voluntarily. Paying that debt can entail anything from years of patient work to instant willingness to die. Difficult it may be, but the reward is self-respect.

But there is no reward at all for doing what other people expect of you, and to do so is not merely difficult, but impossible. It is easier to deal with a footpad than it is with the leech who wants "just a few minutes of your time, please — this won't take long." Time is your total capital, and the minutes of your life are painfully few. If you allow yourself to fall into the vice of agreeing to such requests, they quickly snowball to the point where these parasites will use up 100 percent of your time — and squawk for more!
So learn to say No — and to be rude about it when necessary.
Otherwise you will not have time to carry out your duty, or to do your own work, and certainly no time for love and happiness. The termites will nibble away your life and leave none of it for you.

(This rule does not mean that you must not do a favor for a friend, or even a stranger. But let the choice be yours. Don't do it because it is "expected" of you.)"
