For one, Social Security has been pilfered and broke for many decades. Congress "borrowed " that money and never paid it back. Your check comes from current tax payer dollars, and printed dollars.

Our governor is incarcerating illegals for such crimes as "criminal trespass", and Texans are carrying guns to and from their cars, on their front porch, and when working in their yard, and garden.
He has reopened a closed down prison, but guards, administrators, ect have to be hired, and it will fill up quickly.
Covid in the Rio Grand Valley is up 900%, and these illegals are flooding north as the State of Texas is being overwhelmed with border jumpers.
Governor Abbott signed an executive order making it against the law to transport illegals in Texas. Yes, it's that bad down here.
When I drink my coffee on my front porch in the morning, there is a pistol in my pocket.
UNDERSTAND, THIS IS ALL HAPPENING "INTENTIONALLY"!
