(114,521 posts)I live in an independent living facility and the population is mostly Silent Generation with money, lots of Republican businessmen who neverr asked any questions when thatt party told them the GOP owned patriotism and fiscal responsibility and even god.
Well, it took them a lifetime, but they're sure asking a lot of questions now., especially suince they're all realizing they might not be able to aford this place much longer. These people didn't fuck around as much as they simply trusted blindly and unquestioningly and now they're all finding out, in spades.
OIr, as my mother said, "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth--great clods of it, right in their faces."
As infuriating as I found the unquestioning, incurious loyalty of these people when I was younger, I have to confess these days I just find it really sad.
