Suffering and deprivation of biblical proportions

The current administration, for whatever reason, seems determined to defund, deregulate, and dismantle all America's essential institutions and any safeguards against government overreach. I want you to imagine America without taxes, Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, affordable health care, worker’s protection, environmental protection, Public Schools, civil rights, coordination between states, repairs to our infrastructure, a reliable electrical grid, road and freeway repairs, or anything resembling a functioning democracy. It's not a pretty picture. It’s a scene of incomprehensible suffering and deprivation of biblical proportions. It’s terrifying. But it’s absolutely essential that you think about it. And then act.
