I will miss the postal service.
I already miss the snow.
I already miss people fulfilled by their jobs.
And public expressions of happiness in general.
If we could just capture that happiness and turn it into some unit of work there could be profit in it, just think! Oh what amazing things would follow if we did that for every human moment everywhere all the time.
We are collectively destroying everything that made us great as a country. The postal service was literally the envy of the world - name another country's service that will deliver a letter to anywhere else in the country for less than a dollar. Consistently, regardless of remote location.
Immigrants contribute to every level from the service industry to research and development.
Our rule of law, although not perfect, for the most part was attempted to lean towards justice.
We were a stabilizing economic and military force for the world.
USAID helped save millions of lives.
This administration setting fire to it all under the guide of "Making America Great" despite the fact that all their changes will in fact make it fucking shit, dismantling the very things that should make us proud to be American.
