Kickass, the doorstop dog, reports that the keeper and thousands of other “Depression babies” would likely not exist had there been an “affordability” consideration to their births.
But since there is no immediate cost to the physical act of making babies, even with an empty soup bowl economy prevailing, the Depression babies got made and here they are, sometimes partnered up with “war babies” like Phyllis!
The Depression babies may be older than the Milky way and now inclining toward comfortable recliners but know that they went through their long lives constantly hearing about “affordability” as in “we can’t afford that” about everything from soup to nuts and including Christmas list items.
To hear the idiot billionaire buffoon in the White House ridicule the word “affordability” is particularly offensive to the depression babies who know what a bare-knuckle struggle it was for their parents to raise them. Without the essential elements of decency and love dominating the scene their collective lives it could not have happened.
They wouldn’t know about that over where the White House is rotting away as its humane “affordability”
