Not worried

 In my life I just worked to pay the bills and if I saved anything it went into savings accounts and CDs. I had 401ks later in life but they were on those low risk bonds-stocks funds. I know a lot of regular people have money losing value now, but there's also a lot of greedy hedge funds and people like Gates, Bezos, Musk, and Zuckerberg who are losing money, so I figure that's good. I remember in 1975 the Dow was at 500, so no big deal now. And I figure it's a good thing, Feds are cutting off funds, because feds shouldn't be in education or healthcare. If feds and state weren't taking so much taxes from us, we could afford to fund it locally. George Washington said avoid foreign alliances. Eisenhower warned us about the military industrial complex. So if the cheap stuff stops coming in, well that's the way it goes. There's cotton grown in this country and I figure I have a needle and thread I can make my own pants. Im not saying they'd be anything flashy but whatever. And if coffee goes up, well, during the Civil War they used parched corn to make coffee. Trump isn't very smart, but maybe this whole episode will make us more self-sufficient. And if the car industry goes down the drain, maybe more people will take public transit. But please no more on the #73 and #77 in Portland. This is all my opinion, but if it doesn't suit you, then think up something, but don't give me any of this political party stuff. One party wants to give us everything and the other party wants to take it away. Nobody out there wants to do what's good for the whole country.
