Anyway... (sigh) I think I'll go try to focus on some research. And reach out to those at immediate risk.
I am certainly not especially inclined to liberality in general... but I too am losing my home, I too figure among the deeply afflicted 'forgotten in need.' But I don't perceive that political team membership is a true solution to any of it. I have found neither party (especially in the time of 'word slinging') really matters more than individual human beings conscientiously driven to help each other.
I will pray (unless it is unwelcome) for your situation (and those of your friends) to improve... regardless, you all have my well-wishes.
None of us deserve systemically imposed misery... especially when the 'system' is a function of political gamesmanship engendered for "superficial effect" rather than for an actual solution.
