In my day job as a merchant sailor we have hours to learn multi-billion dollar operations of vessels that deliver cargo in and out of ports on transoceanic voyages, with the most extreme personalities you will ever hear about in civil society.

Our population is literally being poisoned by shady overseas Rx ingredients, and food nutrition being ignored, while our geriatrics on the hill fight over who uses which potty.
This division and dehumanization of each other has to stop.
