Ways you can help the @informationwar
As always, mind blowing numbers... appreciate you putting this "out there" for people to see. It's difficult to parse the idea that we sit here and are struggling to put together enough to pay our property taxes in spite of working 60-70 hours a week, all year, and yet there is "money enough" for sums this large to be spent daily on... ?
Bright Blessings to you!
