What you are experiencing is best told by 'Star Trek', believe it or
not. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. You have to
live with that, because that's what our political system is doing to any
successful or previously successful nongovernmental people now. I'm no
longer associated with AARP as a token of feeble rebellion.
Most people will disagree with me until our monetary system collapses. I
hope I die before that happens. I will most certainly die forthwith when
it does.
2 cents and I hope I'm wrong
