    I think the message here is clear: if you just elect good conservative leaders, you don’t have people doing crazy stuff like this. I mean, look at Florida.

    Too bad that there isn't a rating for sad :emoji_disappointed_relieved: since it would be appropriate.

    I'm sorry that you're so damaged. Other than the mortgages on his condominium and a rental property my Millennial son is completely debt free, as far a broken home is concerned my wife and I celebrated our 50th anniversary last year and as far as the world is concerned to the extent that it is a mess is in part attributable albeit to a small extent soon to become much larger if he is elected again, the isolationist policies of the Biden's immediate predecessor.

    I appreciate the sympathy, but I am doing just fine. I made it and have a very good career, and thanks to some great people around me growing up, I had it pretty good.

    Unfortunately, a lot of my generational peers are not so lucky. A lot of them are in dire circumstances, completely dependent of gov assistance or living off of their parents assistance well into their 30s. A lot of folks say that it's not that bad or previous generations had tough times, and that is certainly true, but not to this extent. Even peers my age that are married are in most cases in debt if they have kids. A lot of them can't get their boomer parents to babysit because they are working themselves or want to 'retire'. It's tough, add in the 24/7 social media, and a lot of people are overstimulated and burnt out.

    I don't know what the solution is. But the woman running down the street naked is a symptom of a much bigger problem that isnt talked about. Generational wealth below boomers and some older Gen X just isn't there. A lot of disenfranchised youth are turning to drugs, which is probably the case here.

    Visualizing $156 Trillion in U.S. Assets, by Generation

    Bottom line, be sad for our country going forward. Not sure how to fix this.

    I thought you might be saying that those boomers have plenty of money but continue to work because they're greedy and want even more money. But when I read it again, it seems like you're saying these boomers are tired and have to keep working because they don't have enough saved up to retire. If that's the case, we should feel bad for them too. It's not as if all boomers had it easy and are living high on the hog and rolling around in money.

    What is the much bigger problem than this naked woman running down the street? I know you want me to be afraid and sad about something but this isn’t it. I do have one suggestion about what you should be afraid and sad about but likewise I suspect it’s not on your list.

    I’m exhibited for my company in Atlanta this week. Sunday night three people were shot across the street from my hotel. Last night, walking back from a restaurant I observed two clearly drunk individuals sitting in the street. Damn Republican city.

    Seems awfully cold to be naked in Seattle. Should have done it in LA or somewhere warmer.
