bsky.app/profile/bese... I hope this isn’t correct. Children have even greater need for food as they grow. So a parent with an abusive or neglectful spouse should keep that person in the home to qualify for food support for their 8-17-year-olds? . . .

To paraphrase Trump’s recent interview with Kristen Welker, (substituting billionaires for children): “American billionaires do not need as many toys and American billionaires do not need to spend as much money on junk they don’t need.” Sooo, let the 2017 tax bill expire and budget issues solved!

Robert Kennedy Jr. is a similar age to me. He recently said that he remembers families having “measles parties” to infect their children and create immunity. I remember get togethers for chicken pox but definitely NOT measles. Measles (both strains) were taken seriously in those I knew.

I am taking some store pictures of products’ price tags, so I have visual evidence to compare to in a year or two. Eggs and other foods, prescription packages, cleaners, lumber, etc. I will see if the pics are useful. (I assume eggs will go down, since such a big deal was made of those costs.)
