People are going to emote and speak out instinctively.
We see respected, long term DU members needing to express their thoughts and feelings.
We are facing some very bleak prospects as a country, we know what may be in store for us.
And it is not good. People are facing loss of SS, Medicare, increased costs, housing problems, etc.
These are life and death issues for many. Some may have good circumstances and avoid the worst of it.
Leadership is not about wagging fingers and reminding people of minor contractual agreements when
they are terrified of the future and face some serious possible losses, maybe even death.
Many people on this site have been very generous with their time, help, financial support.
They spend time helping out a great deal.
I think they deserve a bit of respect and breathing room. Not lectures.
