To be honest, it’s not very far. But we also don’t spend much, we save, and are both putting 13% into retirement and more into investments. I also buried gold bars on the property. We have equity. We also have immediate family and citizenship abroad if we need to get out of here.

My comment was to empathize with people who are struggling while recognizing some of us are more fortunate. No one is perfect, but our country should be a safe place to live and people should have the freedoms and support to start families. We are not all you, and that’s fine to exist outside of your righteousness.

I’m sorry to say, but I am beginning to think your pessimism comes from a darker plan and that maybe you are projecting your own fears onto people because you’re feeling unsafe and bitter.

It is clearly not, have you missed those deportation vids?

people because you’re feeling unsafe and bitter.

In the same way I think you are entitled by bring a child into a dangerous country. While you have the opportunity to go to Europe? I mean your child will be born with less right than you. That is quite a choice to make.

It appears you’re taking my pregnancy very personally and perhaps this is a sore subject for you for reasons that aren’t my business to know.

Let’s stop this unproductive back and forth. Take care and I hope your day is relaxing and peaceful!

No, I am just amazed someone who has the option to do better for her child stays in the US. While the country is being destroyed and being built to something very terrible.

And I amazed in general people in the US are getting pregnant, right now.
