If You Like Your Car, You Can Keep Your Car

And good morning,

The above thought came to me while watching a movie last night at an actual movie theater. The movie, Dune, I guess wasn’t exactly grabbing me. You know, one of those movies where most of the scenes are shot in near darkness so that the audience can’t tell that the scenery is made out of cardboard boxes and painted with finger paints.

As I was saying, Boris Johnson is in some trouble for trying to tell Great Britain how life is going to be worse for them as time goes by. Geez, people don’t want to hear that. For instance here in the USA, the government isn’t really saying anything concrete about how bad things will get, however, it has been pointed out that we need to lower our expectations.

When our last great president, I mean the great one who didn’t do anything wrong during his eight years in office, said over and over to us constituents, “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.” That was said while his government was trying to take away our health insurance. And our doctors along with it.

Before the above mentioned movie started, a commercial for some car or another came on the screen. That’s when I started to have my Obama thought. Sure, you can still buy a gas guzzling car. But it’ll cost you $100,000. And the gas, well the gas is now about $150 per gallon. That is if you can find a gas station. But, we’re going to try to see if Saudi Arabia can get us a little more gas for you. But, it might be a little pricier. You need a repair on your gas run car? Those car parts seem to be out in the ocean, stuck in the container, on a ship. That we won’t let into the port. Right next to the one with all the toilet paper. C’mon people, we just have to lower our expectations.

I’ll end with one of the funny things I read on line last week. An article from the Babylon Bee (satire) told how after President Biden was thrilled to hear about this “fella” named Brandon who was uniting the country at football games, concerts and even NASCAR, wanted to invite him to the White House. You have to admit that’s funny.

Adios
