The wealthy are not going to suffer much of anything.

The rest of us... well, we knew it was coming. We didn't see the need to worry about it, I guess.

I was worried about it. We now are in the red for the next two weeks. I will need medication. I cannot get it. We will need certain foods because of G.I. issues. We won't be getting them for the next 12 days. We received an email today about the fact that our rent is going up in January. So, it all may be for naught because, realistically, we cannot afford to be here now.

They don't care. They will be fine.

What about those of us who are not fucking rich?

I guess we don't matter, unless we are making someone else rich.

I am disgusted to the point of regurgitation.
