How to tell a "pod-person" from a genuine person by asking them either one of three simple "Yes-or-No" questions:
-Should DHS and ICE be completely, thoroughly, and immediately abolished? Yes or No?
-Are the Israelis conducting genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza? Yes or No?
-Should the US recognize the State of Palestine like the way most of the world has? Yes or No?
This simple litmus test to separate the human beings from the "pod-people" works not only with the holograms running for office at all levels in the US, but with bloggers on websites such as drudge.com. Try it.
DHS = Mossad, ICE = IDF

But we also live a different lifestyle than my parents did when they were working. We intentionally have a smaller house, less stuff, cook at home more because we like the food we make better than most restaurants.
My comments above are even more true for my wife.
Granted, we credit them with a lot because both of our parents pushed hard for education and intellectual achievement. They pushed us to climb.
