I am so tired of “begging a question,” from which I kind of sort of know is better unanswered. I am also tired of asking rhetorical questions from which I also know that there could be an easy answer, but that the answer will be ignored or deflected because a few individuals, making a WHOLE LOT PROFIT, would rather ignore that question, let alone answering it. It seems there is more profit to be made changing the climate, than dealing with climate change! One more question, HOWEVER, do the Billionaire Demographic actually believe that their hordes of money will, in the end, save them?

Anarchy, Fascism, Authoritarianism, Anti-Democratic Policies, be as dramatic as you wish or try to be as mundane as you pretend, but via, Hypocrisy, Grifting, Graft, Selfishness, Bogus, Bias and a strong tolerance for Bull-Shit, we are witnessing another form of climate change, visa-vie American politics. Destruction as rapid as a tornado, a hurricane, as devastating as a tsunami, or earthquake, and in their wake, the destruction of our democracy, is decaying and soon to disappear. We see it, we feel it, we fear it, YET, even as this smothering ash steadily falls, too many of us, just sit and watch, and let it happen. Once again, so it seems to me, it is the cadre of a select group of billionaires assuming that because they have money, they will remain safe!
