Im in a strange position. I work in tech and so far have been able to command good pay, which I need as my wife has a lot of medical issues. Its a bit like being a single parent of a disable child. So we are fucked if he and vance do what they say they will but at the same time I can somewhat economically muscle through it but it will keep us at best on the line and maybe we will just fall and once that happens its pretty much going to be like a house of cards as medical costs can way overwelm my earnings potential.
