At a month from 80, life in its survival, both the body and one’s needs, has become a journey I never suspected to travel. While I am not confident in a paid subscription, I am so glad to be here as a guest, Harry. Your writing struck home.
Thanks to Harry for imparting a future shock. Here in the US we are fighting an escalated form of capitalism, authoritarianism. The 1% in this country are spending the money they take from the rest of us, by means of insane tax cuts, inflation created by unnecessary price increases and out right fraud, to try and burn down our Democracy as we have known it for over 200 years. Our Republican party is swearing allegiance to a convicted fraudster who is encouraging them to do nothing in the way of governing our country. Our Republican party supports the 1% robbing us blind. They are taking millions of dollars in bribes and fighting among themselves. We are headed down a path to replay the times of Harry's young life only much worse. This seems to be a world wide issue with many countries running down the same road and some already there, Hungry, for instance. I fear if a great power, such as the US, falls into this quagmire the rest of the world will follow. This time there will be no way out. God help us.
Thank you John for bringing your father's warning back to us.

It's a well written interesting tale, but so depressing, but life can be hard, now just as then
