Shit Is Fucked Up And Bullshit

I'm curious how many people have, during this crisis, cashed out their meager pensions (at great penalty) to try to stumble along for a little while longer before some banksters come along to steal their homes.

Basically almost everybody in this country is one nontrivial medical event or extended period of involuntary unemployment (yes, Chicago economists, such things exist) away from, at best, hitting the reset button and going back the beginning. It doesn't have to be that way.
