What a rogue’s gallery. If the Nuremberg laws were enforced, all of these criminals would have been hung, as each one of them committed multiple war crimes.

During these administrations, all of which I lived through and remember, American spent well over $20 trillion dollars on failed, pointless wars based on delusion and paranoia and the US economy was looted by a tiny number of rich psychopaths. At the start of this story, you could graduate from high school, get a job in an auto factory, buy a house, support a stay-at-home wife and send your kids to university, and then retire in middle-class comfort. Now two full-time adult salaries don’t allow you even to buy a house — forget about sending your kids to school, or even having kids.

And yes, that in a nutshell is the sorry story of how America came to the piteous state it is in now: Mr. Nixon, Mr. Ford, Mr. Carter, Mr. Reagan, Mr. Bush, Mr. Clinton, Mr. Bush2, Mr. Obama, and Mr. Trump.
