Things that have me worried and very angry

#1  Going to another are of the world...India where people are trying to get to their homes and out of the large cities and having to walk hundreds and thousands of miles, many of them sick and with children.  For years I have been hearing that there will be a war over water...Between Pakistan and India, countries that have a lot of people and very little water and both have nuclear weapons, this may well happen and it is scary to think of .

#2  It is unfortunate but very true, this tragedy has gone completely political!  Our "leader" and some of our governors are more concerned with money than lives.  I know that without taxes roads won't be repaired, schools can't operate and many other things that taxes take care of, however, when the lives of everyone in the country are at stake money is not that important.  Maybe I need to correct that, money is important in order for our doctors, nurses, back up staff, etc. to be able to work and eat.  It is necessary to get food to those who cannot afford anything...but the level of political interference is beyond belief!  Our "leader" wants everything up and running, business wise, by the end of this month, earlier if possible. As far as medicine, generic drugs are about to run out so that means the large pharmaceuticals can put a huge increase on their drugs...want to pay $200 for something that cost 10 cents to make?  Our "leader" has no common sense, he does not live in the same world as we do so don't expect sympathy or actual help from him during this crisis that isn't near being over.  In fact, it can level off and then come back so when we hit the Apex...that doesn't mean a thing to this disease.

#3   Meanwhile,in Brazil...their "leader" (who admires and follows Trump in many ways) refuses to ban going in crowds to the beaches and actually encourages it...he isn't making them stay at home or wear protective gear when they go out and they are in for a hell of a run with COVID!

#4  Our Reservations have very little water and practically no health care.  Our government has made over 100 treaties with the Natives and broken everyone of them!  They hoped this would wipe them from the face of the Earth.  It didn't and it won't.  They are supposed to be here and they will stay here!  Do you really believe if you had to live like they do you wouldn't be a drug addict or an alcoholic?  Think again.  If you think they can live in "our world" and be happy...no way in hell.  We really need to understand them and I'm not talking about T.V. shows and movies, I mean really try to understand them.  Don't think you can go straight to them and ask questions, they learned long ago to be very careful of us "whites".  They take care of their elders (well you have those who want to be leaders and will do anything for money such as go around the reservation at night and shoot into houses where people are having supper and getting ready for bed, families with small children, another story to be talked about) and their sick without a lot of money and a long way from pharmacies and hospitals...what they have as doctors, nurses and hospitals won't be enough for all the peoples of the Reservations.  Although the plains Natives didn't have anything to do with the Constitution, the Iroquois did!  PBS has a series on Native Americans and you really should watch it because it covers a lot of territory on the history.

I'm going to close with a saying that closes my favorite Sunday morning radio show, "today is a good day to live".
