Washington Blues: A Government Town Faces a Gloomy Future
—
For years, Washington, D.C., was insulated from many of the economic forces that decimated many older U.S. cities. Now, as Elon Musk’s mass layoffs shake everything from employment to real estate, the region faces the prospect of decline.

Poland seeks US nuclear arms as a deterrent against #Russia. The #UK Prime Minister pledges to cut #government regulatory expenses. #Germany's #Bundestag considers easing its debt rules.

Old joke: a new leader of a far off country is congratulated at their inauguration by their predecessor. Their predecessor mentions they’ve written the new guy 2 letters, and left them in the presidential desk.

Another two years go by and things are running smoothly. Then, at two years two months, without warning, a second unsolvable problem comes up. The leader decides that since the first letter had such good advice, he has to open the second letter now.
The leader opens the second letter, and it just says, “write two letters.”
Musk/45 has used up the first letter.
3/3 end
The new leader thanks their predecessor, and quickly forgets. Six months pass, all is well. Then, a month more and a huge problem with no solution comes up. The leader is inconsolable. Then he remembers the letters. He opens the drawer, takes out letter one and tears it open. On the predecessor’s letterhead, it says only, “blame me.”
The new leader blames his predecessor and the people accept that. The leader weathers the storm.

What the #GOP added into the Continuing Resolution was worse than shutting the #government down.
Can't be repeated enough:
"Elon Musk is not engaged in an “efficiency drive”. He is not trying to save money. He is trying to cripple the state and destroy the public sector, since oligarchs of his ilk think these are by nature a waste of money and that their functions should be privatized. Media should report it as such."

Rather than just boost a previous post, I thought some details and clarifications would be helpful.
The #GI #Rights #Hotline is _not_ a #government #agency or service and is an independent organization that serves ALL active duty #military and #reservists for every branch of service, at zero cost.
They can provide free #counseling and #legal help, but they are not a 'crisis' type hotline for #emergency situations.
The law will never make men free; it is men who have got to make the law free. They are the lovers of law and order, who observe the law when the government breaks it.
