All:
I had this long email about recent observations and what I think it means for America's future, but this anecdote captures it all.
As most of you know, I work in cyber security. One of my tasks is to manage my organization's anti-phishing tools.
Recently, I got a request to block a domain by user because we flagged the email as spam. The domain is related to a big box store's marketing emails and services. One key service is order management and delivery. All these emails were being appropriately placed in this user's Junk folder. After telling him that's how email marked as spam is handled, he insisted I block all emails from this domain because their unsubscribe feature asked for too much information (email, name, last purchase, etc.). While it would annoy me, I'd just leave it going to my Junk folder, or create a local rule to delete all mail from said domain. Instead, the user continues to insist I apply a solution to the whole organization to take care of his annoyance.
Doesn't that capture the core problem in America today? Everyone wants a national solution for THEIR PROBLEM. I don't see how we overcome that insistence, especially among the Left and liberal Aunt Becky.
While I see DJT's grand vision, how can America recover when they can't ignore what annoys them and INSISTS on a national solution to fix it for them without considering other consequences?
Respectfully,

THE COST OF THE AMERICAN DREAM HAS EXPLODED.
Owning a home.
Buying groceries.
Driving to work.
Paying insurance.
Even your morning coffee.
Nearly every major household expense costs dramatically more than it did just a few years ago.
Over the last 7 years:
• Coffee: +127%
• Home prices: +60%
• Auto insurance: +51%
• Gasoline: +49%
• Electricity: +44%
• Shelter: +35%
• Groceries: +33%
And that's before paying for healthcare, transportation, or eating out.
This is why so many families feel like they're falling behind even when they get a raise.
The biggest financial problem for millions of Americans is that everything is going up at the same time, while the government keeps showing a 2% inflation target.
