Next week will have lots of political excitement going on, I'm sure. Despite that, hopefully you're having an OK week

I wonder what will happen if a bunch of people lose their jobs all of a sudden. That worries me.

If there's a critical mass, then we get into Something Must Be Done territory, and various levels of government will do what they can to handle it. Of course, that's if there's government left, so who knows 🤷

I dunno, Something Must Have Been Done about the pandemic too...

And the recent spout of inflation...

And the corruption in the Supreme Court, among other places.

And for women needing access to proper medical care...

For some, suffering seems to be the point, for others it's immaterial, leaving far too few to try to help.

But, that's a problem for next week.:-)
