In the last several elections there are battling factions who get their information from completely different sources, and very few people are talking about, or planning truly concrete ways of getting necessary things done.

Big flooding devastation has occurred in the South due to our latest hurricane. What are you hearing about the federal response?

What is our leadership doing about the dock workers strike on the East Coast and Gulf Coast which appears to be looming (i.e. beginning 10/1).

(From a meeting of those who operate the power grid:) Our current power generation, even if all the coal fired plants are kept running, (including those scheduled to close soon), can produce 8% less energy than the projected demand this winter. What is the administration doing about this? More electric cars that are charged with coal?

The reality about abortion access: Absolutely nothing can stop it in the long term, since the pills are available by black market, telemed mail order, as well as in CVS and Walgreens. Since all D & Cs are legal everywhere once the embryo or fetus is deceased, then all hospitals are required to finish the job for anyone presenting after abortion pill failures, (for as long as the overwhelmed hospitals have staff). Those truly committed to abortion availability will either train themselves to provide abortions competently, or will fund them, just as the abortion opponents self fund their many thousands of 'crisis pregnancy centers'.

But the immediate supply of abortions will be impacted by the hurricane, the inadequate power available to the grid, and the dock worker's strike which will impair food and medical supplies to everyone.

I believe that more people need to begin thinking in more concrete terms, and acting concretely in order to survive.

I don't like the man and think he is too old and egotistical to be president
