Thank you, Mary, for an amazing piece of investigative reporting/journalism. You explained complex things succinctly and clearly with a practiced ease. I look forward to your pieces as they help smooth out the rough edges in my own geopolitical knowledge and understanding. You have an amazing gift.

I also need to thank you for giving me yet another reason to not be able to sleep well at night. 😉

I have virtually no comprehension of tax forms, insurance minutiae, or finance. I dropped Economics 101. Twice.

But I well understand your explanation and analysis: the house is on fire. We're fucked.

I dropped ethics …also twice… that sentence gave me a laugh. When what you’ve been taught and lived the reality of gets thrown out the window because of some ‘supposed’ new rationalization and the real rationing on the other end is stretching a weeks worth of groceries into two…both sides look like somebody is lying…no wonder anymore there, right?

They were warned
