5. I remember the year we finally were able to buy a house

and own a credit card in our own name. I had just turned 18 and was already into my Air Force service gig. So, I could fight and die for the country, but until that point, I couldn't have a credit card in my own name, let alone buy a house or a car or get it registered solely in my name.

And yes, they want to strip all this away from us! They especially want to strip us of our voting rights. I'm not willing to go back a couple hundred years into the past. The point at which they've pushed now is the line of "no more" for me, and what they've done so far shall not stand!
