Having the ability to expose politicians who pass laws to enrich themselves at the expense of others is an essential feature of democracy. That doesn't happen by itself though, it takes time and courage at the very least. Just ask Alexei Navalny's widow. Partisan politics aside, John Lewis was right when he said “Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America.” Thanks for getting into good trouble, I hope your son heals up quickly.

I worked since I was 16 until I was redirected to become a stay at home mom in my 40’s. I had a job I loved, it was the hardest thing to leave, but having a daughter on the spectrum, I knew my attention had to be her and family. Just about the time I was ready to go back to work full time, my son became a type 1 diabetic, it was a clear message. I stand by the quote “your greatest contribution to the universe may not be something you do, but someone you raise”. God had a different plan for me and my family. You seem to be doing a great job keeping yours in balance. Faith and balance to me is everything. Good piece. Good for you for standing your ground. You do it well, and do it for all of us that don’t have a voice. Thanks!
