      Yup, my own father has literally never saved 1 cent to retire. And he is a staunch R supporter, yet still plans to retire in 7 years… I’ve told him countless times you literally didn’t have a penny to retire without SS, but he doesn’t see it…

      To support the Republican party in the 21st Century is to be either completely ignorant of, and uneducated about, the history of regulations, education, labor laws, geopolitics, etc… or to be too racist, narcissistic, authoritarian or fascist to care about any of that… or to be just plain stupid.

      Most Americans fall into the ignorant/uneducated camp, and are being actively brainwashed by the narcissists/fascists. They’re “shocked” to learn the consequences because they’re ignorant/uneducated.
