Waited forever and finally older gentleman shows up. Was very nice and talkative. I would think he was in his 60's but I didn't ask. Could tell he was totally lost and he kept saying he was sorry. He just came to Chicago from Miami. Then like a bomb falling on me he said he lost everything in the hurricane and was starting over. Motherfucker. How in the world in this great country does this happen? Why does someone who should be retiring and worrying about their next fishing trip have to start over? I'm 55 and shit like this scares the bejeebus out of me. If your not rich when you're older your fucked. Even my retirement plans could collapse because some lunatic wants a war or the economy tanks again.
I don't like America anymore and I don't think it will ever recover and be a country that gives everyone a chance. That helps those in need. A country that even cares a little. I don't like America anymore.
