If, on the other hand, nothing is done [per O], then the system will collapse while I am still living. G-d willing.
That's pretty cruel, hoping for God to will a system crash, especially in a nation that supposedly is blessed by him with exceptionalism. Y'all want God to revoke that license, don't you.
No, no, no, the system crash is a given if the Democrats retain control, and not so far in the future, either. I'm just hoping for a long life, if that's OK with you! :dunno:
