"Or perhaps he knows it's not going to work anymore. An addict can only up their dose so far before the amount they'd need to get the old high would just make their heart explode. Jimmy Carter proved we're not 'cold turkey' kind of people."

I'm glad you brought up Jimmy Carter here because he was the last president who told the American consumption addicts that they should eat less butter. How'd that work out for him in 1980? Say what you want about the American addiction to endless and cheap consumption, just don't say it in an election year where the future of democracy is on the line. Trumpism is the heart attack, shit like American addiction to consumption is the cancer we can deal with *after* the impending cardiac arrest threat is dealt with. A little political triage here folks.
