I remember when I was a kid, old people talking about Ham Loaf. Nostalgia is great until it bites you in the ass.

In the winter of 1984, during the recession my father was laid off as he always was in winter. This was the worst year that my family lived through before my parents abandoned ship leaving me to find my way through the world at the age of 15. I remember that being the first year without Thanksgiving and Christmas. I look back on that year with a certain amount of disgust because that year my parents had decided to vote democrat as they had always. They thought they were really sticking it to the fat cats by voting for the party of treason. Now I just see two parties getting rich at the expense of the American Tax Payer who is too stupid to understand that we peasants are not part of the great American Plan. We are the collateral and currency. In 1913, all it took was 3 traitorous democrats to saddle this country with the Income Tax, and the Federal Reserve. We have been slaves ever since.
