update to my anti-vaxer note

 I got my latest flu shot yesterday and was happy to do so. (I experienced the flu going into pneumonia a couple of times from 1998 to 2008 and do not want to repeat this).

CNN interviewed a couple of RNs whose reasons for not getting vaccinated struck me a casualty. Their reasons  sounded cobbled together. They were very sincere and upset that very few other "supporters" were getting their shots and were not standing with these anti-vaxers.

We need all the medical personnel we have and to see these highly experienced people shit canned fired for not getting a simple and safe vaccination strikes me as impossible to understand!

This email is an update to an earlier one.

note to Senate Critters regarding the looming government shutdown

 Email I sent to Senators Marshal and Moran this morning:

I am scared and angry.

During the Trump Administration you were sanguine about bloating the deficit by nearly eight thousand billion dollars. The time has come to start paying this bill. Are you willing to raise taxes on the top 5% and forcing corporations to pay income taxes?

Do you plan on raising the taxes on the middle class including retirees like me?

Perhaps a return to the Income Taxes of Ronald Wilson Reagan for the wealthy people and corporations?

Do not plan on looting Social Security to pay off a small amount of this Federal Deficit. SS is part of the retirement funding my wife and I need to survive.

comments on the J6 Rally in DC

 First, there was the riot in the Nation's Capitol. Today, is the "Justice for J6" rally. This is based on the premise that many "innocent" people had simply wondered into the Capitol on 6 January 2021 and were later arrested on bogus charge.

This ignores the fact that a number of these "peaceful protestors" were partners with violent people and actually committed crimes.

The folks are gong to rally near the Capitol and will be unarmed and peaceful. They may have been as there is no news regarding them on CNN TV or print. However, a peaceful get together will be couched in terms of "the J6 - January 6 rally - was also peaceful".  It was not.

Seven hundred protestors were expected and the actual count was under 200. There were reportedly more police and media than there were protestors.
