I am reading emails and a fellow reader suggests old people are greedy and "closet Republicans."We should not be allowed to write here.
I've been called a fraud, liar, lousy writer but never have I been called a Republican.
I will admit to the writer part.
I have never read a diary that made me think the writer was a Republican. I think the writer has
an ego larger than Donald Trump has. Most old farts like me have experienced life.
We try and learn from failures, lost loves, health, and politics. We can talk about Eisenhower, Nixon, Civil rights and several issues that we lived with. A younger person
needs to listen to us.
We have lived in times when Congress worked together and made our country better.
A middle class was a part of this society.I won't say earlier times were better I'm
saying we lived in turbulent times. Now we live a society full of apathy and a lack
of the middle class
I don't know the writer in the DK. He is wrong.
Being old sucks, it beats the alternative. Learn from our mistakes.
Till death do us part.
