Rather surprised this is on a 'boat' group!

However: After 27 postings (so far) on this thread.

....................... Yeah the US got problems!

Can't even run an election without dissent?

And USA not used to 'not' being the 'top cheese', 'major power', 'world
leader' etc. in everything, eh?

The various postings demonstrate every emotion from 'flight' to
'fight'. For examples;
a) Get on my boat and leave?
b) Wait two years and things will be back to (abnormal)!

Q: In an original post "a family earning $50K is only paying, what was
it $3.5K in taxes?????"

Must be a misprint?

But if so that's only 7%.

Very, very low by world standards. So no wonder we're not getting
services deserved from government.

Also sounds as if US legislators (Rep/Dem) may be in the hands
(pockets) of big industry? Some significant decisions seem to benefit
commercial profit not the citizenry?

Ah woe is me! Might even have to de-emigrate. Wonder if I can take my
boat with me?

Signed; Candidate for Senate or maybe Governor of California? (Oops;
don't qualify. Wasn't born in the US. In fact don't even have a green
card!).
