For whatever reason, I awoke at 5:00 a.m. today and couldn’t fall back to sleep. Usually, I’ll visit the toilet and return to a deep slumber for another three hours. Today, I could not, but right now, I think I could. Instead, I’m trying to write a post that might make some sense.

It seems that the Trump-Harris debate has turned into a draw for us old people and a giant win for Kamala if you are too young to vote. To me, she never really answered any questions. The easiest one she avoided like it was the plague. The very first question: Are you better off today than you were four years ago? Evidently, if you are as rich as she is, it doesn’t matter that a run-of-the-mill small house costs over a half million dollars, or that a loaf of bread is over five dollars, or that eggs are 4.79 a dozen. Most voting age people already own homes and like me and I won’t be buying one soon, so let them cost a million dollars, I don’t care. My next home will most likely be a nursing home. What I do care about is the price of things like food, and gas. They are the only things I am buying these days. My fixed income however doesn’t rise along with the prices so I am falling behind quickly. It won’t be long before I’m using credit cards to survive. Her policies, at least the few she admits to, will all make inflation rise even higher, and that will put a huge dent into a senior’s ability to enjoy life.
I felt that Trump was holding back and as a result he seemed to lack vigor. His message is not new. We have heard it so often at his rallies that it seemed stale. I would liked him to have attacked her with some nasty salvos on her desire to communize the country. I’m sure his handlers threatened him with death if he left his game plan and began ad libbing amusing cheap shots at Kamala. Somehow he has to get her away from her sob-story-life and bring her down to earth. If she isn’t in tears at the next debate from his misogynist slurs I will be disappointed.
I’d like to know how they would do if they debated the way Lincoln and Douglas did. They spent hours at each other’s throats. She would turn her arguments into word salads. A better match would be putting JD Vance against Kamala. His command of language and argument is superior to hers and even Trump’s. I believe JD would stick the dagger into her chest so smoothly that she wouldn’t even know she was being slain.
What Kamala needs is some experience with real work. As she said, she has always worked for the people, implying that in her role as a lawyer and prosecutor, she was on our side. When I say work, I mean as a waitress or a clerk in a corporation where a boss looks over your shoulder expecting you to perform. Or maybe she should take a spin as a nurse in the ER where she would have to think on her feet and perform miracles quickly. Based on her performance as the border czar she has not shown any ability to solve problems but she does know how to create them. By expanding the populations of small towns she has literally forced people into taking desperate measures to find food. Being resourceful, hungry people will look upon household pets as a protein source, and there are reports they have already eaten cats and dogs. There are countries in the far east that offer cats, dogs, snakes, and large birds on the menus. I personally witnessed these items while on a business trip to Malaysia. Many eating places in the far East keep live fish and animals in cages so the customer can pick his meal on the spot. The people insist on eating only freshly killed and cooked items. The only exotic animal I could stomach was fried alligator, or a carp pulled out of the fish tank as we watched.
The people of the USA will have to get used to eating anything that moves as inflation increases. The positive side of eating fresh kill is that the foods won’t be overly processed as commercial foods are today. Follow this link to an interesting news article about eating dogs
