I haven't admitted this to anyone here at DU [View all]

But I am fully expecting to be dead within a year to six months.

Don't get me wrong, I want to live but once Elon Musk and Trump destroy the
Federal health system, and I am no longer getting Social Security and my Federal Pension I will be homeless. I don't expect my life saving
weekly use of the Dialysis machine will be available to me, just to the rich who will have their own, if they can afford it, and it will most likely be on some scrap pile, once the TRUMP administration makes this country only for Rich people and those who
haver to live from our governments handouts ...cause we are in a wheel chair and can't do much more than lick envelopes for a living, will all die, just like those who refused a covid shot.Makes me wonder now, why I got the shot in the first place. All those who survived covid, may not have much of a future if any to look forward to.

I have no family. I am on my own, and for once I am really feeling it, the depression of what's to come because a bunch of stupid fucking people wanted a KING instead of a President.
