We can talk about change without calling America a third world country.
I want to stay away from politics, I said all I want to say on that topic earlier. Without change we would still be doing horses and riding in buggy's. Without change we wouldn't have all the modern medical miracles, and this list goes on. Believe me I know a thing or two about medical miracles.

im fine with discussing these issues,although some seem uncomfortably close to politics.i referred to the U.S. becoming a third world country mostly due to discouragement over things going on where i live(polk county,fl)for 3 months we had difficulty getting simple services such as garbage pickup without waiting for two weeks for the trash truck to come.kind of discouraging to see heaps of trash next to garbage cans,mattresses and couches rotting on the roadsides,etc.and doesnt anyone want to work anymore?everywhere you go theres help wanted signs...but no workers.what are these people living on if not excessive government handouts,only good thing is if things get real bad i will come out of retirement and work a couple of days a week to buy gas...but somehow this is not what i thought retirement would be.im not planning on raiding my 401k to buy an EV.id have nothing against an electric camaro that was a 2 door sports coupe,but the price would probably be crazy enough to keep me in 87 octane for many years,and i believe that once enough people switch to EVs the price of electricity will go up as quickly as gas has,gotta pay for all those wind turbines and nuclear plants somehow.
