Talked with my car insurance agent yesterday, turns out he is full-on Maga. I never knew or suspected. [View all]

He is the owner and his office is just a few blocks from where I live and we've had good conversations over the years about many things. I told him I was worried about my SS and he told me that I had no worries because Musk is a genius and I'd probably be getting more money since SS is rife with abuse. Wow! I had no idea, but since I need him in my corner I steered the conversation in a different direction.

What is peculiar about this is that I talk with my mail carrier, who likely will retire this year, about politics and all sorts of things all the time and he is a staunch Democrat who also tells me that I shouldn't worry about my SS. Odd that I get the same advice from people on the opposite ends of the political spectrum.
I'm way past the point of not worrying because I read DU everyday with its drumbeat of doom concerning Trump and its "abandon all hope, ye who enter here" motto. Evidently I have masochistic tendencies along with procrastination which I keep meaning to give up.
