Seven can be an asinine number. Especially among people who are superstitious. It's supposed, by some folks, to be lucky. But the last seven years have been quite, quite dreadful. The pandemic is set into the time frame like an ugly, radioactive diamond. The US Presidency of one particularly hated media personality caused the worst division among people in US history, short of the Civil War. Social media became a corporate tool of government, first giving, then taking free speech and free enterprise along with it. People have been de-platformed and de-monitised for saying things the Powers don't want peons sharing.
We The People are being oppressed by inflation. The Federal Reserve keeps raising interest rates, which profits the banking industry, while claiming it will reverse inflation. How ridiculous. It will sustain inflation, while having no positive effect on the lives of the middle class and poor. It will increase the power of the very rich, of course. The Federal Reserve should have been abolished a long time ago, and the banks should have been forced to reduce extortionate interest on loans and credit cards, and to pay appropriate interest to their customer's for their savings account. People used to get 4% interest on passbook savings, now they get nearly nothing, and are subject to oppressive penalties. The whole time the most universally hated person was US Prez, no one was taking action against the banking industry. No one was protecting free speech and free enterprise from unfair repression. Bummer, man.
Please demand reform in the banking industry.
