"A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.”
And a society grows weak when old politicians accumulate a national debt they know they will never live to repay.

Status quo corrupto-politicians: “I’m gettin’ mine, and screw the future, the lumpen, and any newbie peer trying to conserve.”
Liberals claiming the moral high ground: “Shame on the Right leaning Corporations for profiting.
Litigate them, fine them, then destroy them.”
New socialist activist deadbeats: “You gots; I ain’t. Gimme.”
Old school middle class conservatives: “Katie, bar the door. Then lock and load.”
Kinda like this:
The friction came to a head in early 2017 when senior officials offered Trump charts and graphics laying out the numbers and showing a “hockey stick” spike in the national debt in the not-too-distant future.
In response, Trump noted that the data suggested the debt would reach a critical mass only after his possible second term in office. “Yeah, but I won’t be here,”.
Vote, my ass.
Society THEN:
..and NOW:
Just LOOK at what Putin has done to our country!.
Putin didn’t do it. We did it ourselves.
It collapses when the takers > the makers.
