Immorality

For many years I have known, cannot physically prove, that there is a lot of underhanded stuff going on. This is hurting all of society in a way that if it continues it will bring down society as we know it (how can you stop it). These people are criminals but, as the law states, you cannot call them criminals until they get caught and convicted. However, when you have these things flaunted in your face day after day, your gut will tell you that it is criminal.

               Let me give you one example. As I was recently driving, I passed a gas station, and the gas was $2.99. One half mile down the same road I passed a gas station, same brand as the other, and the gas was $3.19. Why is there a difference when the two gas stations are filled by the same truck? I call that criminal. Also, if the gas station tanks store the gas that was bought at a certain price, why does it rise in price tomorrow when it is the same gas?

               Read the daily papers and think about lawyers. The truth is that most lawyers are honest, and I am about to refer to the dishonest ones. Let me give examples. I will start with the Trump lawyers. Lawyer after lawyer has resigned from representing him and lawyer after lawyer has jumped at the chance to represent him. I really cannot understand why when it is a proven fact that he seldom pays his debts. Then I will read later that many of them are indicted on charges that they have been doing something highly illegal. There are a few of these people that are flipping and will testify against Trump and have pled guilty to the crimes they are accused of.

               Then there are those in Congress that are only looking out for themselves. They will say one thing while campaigning and do another when elected to Congress. Most people only vote for their congressman for what they can get, not what the entire country is getting. Plus, most congressmen start their career without having much personal money. After a few years the same congressmen are rich, and some are ultrarich. How did this happen?

               I have one more although there are many more. I will write about corporations. Greedy, greedy, greedy. Look at pharmaceuticals. Prices are sky high and, for some unknown reason, are getting higher. The CEO of the companies are making around 400% higher than their employees. Companies also have lobbyists to sell more products and keep the price as high as possible. They even lobby against another company making and selling the same medication at a much lower price. I remember reading my aunt’s hospital bill. There was a charge of $10 a pill for two aspirins. This was years ago. It may be much more now. They told me it is because it included the cost for the nurse to get, take to, and administer the aspirin to the patient.

               This is not utopia and never will be. We will be around criminals forever and will have them constantly attempting to take us on a delusional ride. It is so bad that I rarely know who to trust. Be careful out there because it will be a wild ride.
