Do you think there will be another round of Stimulus Checks

Don't care. Didn't qualify for the first round. Would've just blown it all on hats anyway.

People's park ain't what it used to be. Berkeley ain't what it used to be. The Bay Area ain't what is used to be. Very sad.

Let's hope not.. do you think all this free money is "free" ? 

This country is sinking into an abyss of debt..... and will have consequences later.  

Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Helen Keller, or The Braille Institute can even see whats going on now

Who is the you? Pretty sure Barn made a thread being funny. That's what he alluded to. I stated that I don't care. I make too much. Then I make a joke, a reference to the movie Hot Shots. Then we came to a realization that we both had a connection to the East Bay. To Barn's point though, maybe we should have thought about that when we were handing out massive tax breaks to massive corporations. Trickle down economics is a scam. Give corporations cuts and most of it goes into raised salaries, bonuses, and perks for executives and stock buy backs. They do not do much to stimulate the ecomomy. They reward wealthy donors and lobbyist. So yes, bring on the next round. I'll get zero from it. It'll cost people in my tax bracket dearly, but it's not about just me. We need to open the country and get people back to work but even when that happens, do you just think it will be business as usual? What about people in the hospitality industry? Bar tenders, hotel workers, ect.

It's a war on humanity, brother. UBI coming after depression kicks in from the controlled demolition of the economy. Dependency on the state is game-set-match.

STONES - lyrics from Sympathy for the Devil

Pleased to meet you

Hope you guessed my name

But what's confusing you

Is just the nature of my game

Just as every cop is a criminal

And all the sinners saints

As heads is tails

Just call me Lucifer

Cause I'm in need of some restraint

So if you meet me

Have some courtesy 

Have some sympathy and some taste

Use all your well-learned politesse

Or I'll lay your soul to waste, mm yeah

Buffalo Springfield - For What its Worth

There's something happening here

What it is ain't exactly clear

There's a man with a gun over there

Telling me I got to beware

I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound, everybody look what's going down

There's battle lines being drawn

Nobody's right if everybody's wrong

Young people speaking their minds

Getting so much resistance from behind

What a field day for the heat

A thousand people in the street

Singing songs and carrying signs

Paranoia strikes deep

Into your life it will creep

It starts when you're always afraid

You step out of line

The man come and take you away

"For What its Worth" really great song written by Stephen Stills and preformed superbly by Buffalo Springfield.... Neil Young,said one time "Stephen is a genius."

Know all about that. Lived in Santa Cruz when Neil Young owned property in the area. Knew where he hung out and caught many of his shows both In town and the major concerts in "the city by the bay".

Love that song ...Man,, Neil was young then.. but,,then again, so was I ..Thanks BarneysDad

   Another Classic

  Country was on the brink of collapse back then

That's it. He had his Lionel trains set up there, a recording studio (I think it was in the barn), even some Buffalo. You can see the property if you're flying (south-east) out of SFO (San Francisco) when the plane makes the turn and does a fly over. That's how he first discovered it, by flying over it and seeing that it had it's own small lake.

He moved to LA when he split from his wife, and I think she owns it now, or maybe has sold it? Not sure.

Broken Arrow Ranch.
