I am so glad I stretched and bought a new EV last year (a Korean one). I wanted to wait until the production would be in Georgia, giving an extra $7500 benefit. But this was when Biden was starting to look very obviously impaired and I was afraid Trump would foul everything up, so I took the plunge. The manufacturer offered a discount that made up for part of the tax credit. I expect this vehicle to have a useful life of at least 8 years. I am planning to be alive then and I expect Trump to be dead before then.

Now on to my next problem. It is time for me to apply for Social Security, but they seem to be firing half of the workers. Even if they don't slash benefits, the approvals could get delayed by months. You can start your application 4 months before the benefits are supposed to begin. I started my application yesterday, but had to put it on hold until my 4-month window comes around in a few weeks. But you can bet I'll finish the app the first day I can get it into the system.

It is such a pisser that Trump is weaponizing our government against us.
