Actually, that is a terrible list of tragedy and destruction. SSI was
set up correctly, and would be running with a surplus ... if the money
hadn't been stolen and a bunch of IOU's replacing the funds. My drugs
are not safe and the vaccines are downright poisonous. Crime has never
been higher nor the murder rate higher. The libraries have been gutted
and they keep reselling them to me, after they reassign the last funds I
have given them into some "general fund." The water is all polluted
with the drugs coming from urine upstream. The internet was "given" to
us when the military was done with it... the automobiles are all ugly, I
can't tell one from another, they are small and frankly, I doubt their
"safety." I could list all the others and the problems with considering
them "a great benefit" to me ... but then, I think you can do that as
well as I ... most likely.
