This is not drivel. Or maybe it is, I don’t know. I’m just marking the date here. This is the date the U.S. government will vote on the tax reform bill, not that it needs a vote. The Republicans control every branch of the government, so they’ll do what they want, and they want this tax reform bill so bad it literally doesn’t matter what’s in it. It might be a knock-knock joke scribbled on a bar napkin. We don’t know. We literally don’t know, because the text of the bill hasn’t been released and the substance of the bill can’t be discerned from the news we get from any medium, be it social, radical, or mainstream. One side says it’s one thing, the other says it’s exactly the opposite thing. That’s not exaggeration. That’s what they say, and they’ve been saying it for weeks. I would say I despise them all but, as I pointed out, the Republicans are in control of every branch of government. If they wanted to, they could give us the straight dope on what’s going on, but they won’t, or they can’t, or they just don’t know. It’s hard to tell, and they’re not making it easy to figure out, so I despise them until such time as the Democrats are in charge. Then maybe I’ll despise them. But that’s then. This is now. I despise now. I would really like now to be over.
