Are you concerned about your family?
Do you work or have worked to live a peaceful life?
Are you concerned about your healthcare costs?
Is your income suitable for your immediate needs?
Does your politics address each of these needs sucessfully?

LOL! Take some CBD oil and take a long walk in nature.

or better yet, head placed in some sand?

@Angelface So you think obsessing and worrying will help? LOL! Go ahead and worry, then!

@birdingnut it counts if worrying spurs you to action. I don't sit around and flutter my hands and say oh well. Life is too short to sit back and expect others to make it happen.

Yes, as a new single parent, I am concerned with ny daughter's welfare, education, emotional needs, etc.
Yes, I do work to live a peaceful life.
Yes. I get Medicaid, and it seems like every day that someone is threatening to take it for no good reason.
No, not really. I have to use a few government assistance programs to get by, and am in the precarious position of being trapped ecomonically: if I take a job that could make more money, I lose assistance faster than I gain income.
Yes, or at least they would if they were implimented. Strong minimum wage laws, strong union protections, universal healthcare, childcare, ect.

By the way, I'm feeling singled out by this post! ?

I recently retired only because I had trouble with my knees. And not working at all with no income would have put me living in my car. So I took retirement early which did not give me enough to live off of but this year I am getting medicare but still do not know what I will be getting for a supplement. No one person can help you with this if I am getting help from the state then I guess I will get medicaid. Hopefully medicare will not take any money from me because I can barely live now.

Yes, they struggle daily
No, I work to keep living, no matter peaceful or not
Yes, I am 80k in medical debt and it's growing
No, and I make middle class income according to my state
No, they address only what will get them more money

It would be so much better if people thought not along party lines, not along their own biases but along the actual item put up for a vote!

I am very concerned about my family as well as the world around us.
I do try to live a peaceful life, one without drama involved, but unfortunately sometimes it comes uninvited.
I am very concerned about our healthcare costs. My husband is diabetic and I am asthmatic. We have the worst health insurance we have ever had, and it is taking a toll on us financially and emotionally.
My income sucks, because I'm a social worker, however with my husband's income we fall in the upper middle class. We have everything we need and a lot of what we want.
I am a liberal and I would love for healthcare, education, and a good living wage to be addressed politically, but I don't foresee that happening any time soon. It seems that the current administration is more bent on lining the pockets of the wealthy, and trying to cause a war to think about humanity. I try to be optimistic, but that optimism wanes a little more every day.

I've very little hope for the future

i don't care to involve myself in politics for the most part. but as for the rest of it, i think to some level, most people worry about their family. i am peaceful to a point, however i will aggressivly protect myself and those i care about. i stay away from Dr.s and hospitals as much as i can, plus i have help with medical costs, so thats not a big issue for me, and when i was physically able to work, money wasnt an issue, but until i get done with my surgeries, yes that area can be difficult.

Politics seems to be the bottom line for everything unfortunately.

Would be better if people asked themselves these questions and voted their economic self-interest wouldn't it?
