Reckon We Got a Problem, But the Big Hats Ain’t Sweatin’

By Earl "Truth Bomb" Jenkins

Ain’t tryin’ to be dramatic, but somethin’ ain’t right. Y’all ever seen a slow-motion train wreck? That’s what’s happenin’ to this country right now. And just like a deer starin’ down a Peterbilt at midnight, most folks are frozen in the headlights, hopin’ it’ll swerve.

But it ain’t swervin’.

So lemme break it down real simple-like, in case y’all been too busy workin’ and tryin’ to keep food on the table—since, you know, eggs cost as much as a used Honda these days.

The Government’s Goin’ to Hell in a Handbasket

• Measles is killin’ folks again – ‘Cause, apparently, keepin’ people from dyin’ is just too expensive these days.
• They’re braggin’ about “savin’ money” – But turns out, them “billions in savings” are about as real as my chances with Beyoncé. They’re countin’ money that wasn’t spent, wasn’t budgeted, and in some cases, didn’t even exist. Meanwhile, veterans’ healthcare, air traffic control, food safety, and cancer research? Gone.
• They firin’ folks left and right – The best military leaders? Booted. The head of the FAA? GONE. Now we got planes crashin’, pilots scramblin’, and security lookin’ thinner than a Waffle House waitress at the end of a night shift.
• Prices through the roof – Gas? Up. Food? Up. Tariffs addin’ 25% to damn near everything. Hope y’all like eatin’ dirt and sadness, ‘cause at this rate, that’s what’s for dinner.
• They took over the post office, the IRS, the Kennedy Center – Y’know, just little things like mail-in ballots, our tax records, and one of the few places left where folks can actually think for themselves. But nah, don’t worry—I’m sure they won’t do nothin’ shady with all that power.
• They even throwin’ up Nazi salutes now – But I’m sure that’s just an innocent lil’ misunderstanding, right?

History Ain’t Just a Boring Book, Folks

This ain’t the first time a country’s been gutted like a deer on the side of the road. Wanna know what happens when folks sit around and let it happen?

?? Soviet Union collapsed (1991) – And BOOM! Mafia took over, life expectancy dropped, and the rich gobbled up everythin’ while everyone else got nothin’.

?? Hurricane Katrina (2005, U.S.) – Government sat on its hands while regular folks drowned, starved, and shot each other over bottled water.

?? Yugoslavia in the ‘90s – A whole country ripped itself apart ‘cause the folks in charge were too busy playin’ power games instead of keepin’ the lights on.

?? Libya after Gaddafi – Guess what happens when there ain’t no rules left? Slave markets, warlords, and absolute chaos.

?? The Great Depression – When the economy crashed and the government did squat, millions were homeless, hungry, and hopeless ‘til major reforms dragged the country back from the edge.

So… Is There Anything to Be Done?

That’s the million-dollar question, ain’t it?

Y’all could call your reps, show up to town halls, raise hell, but let’s be real—they ain’t listenin’.

Folks are tired, divided, and distracted—and that’s exactly how they want it. Keep us fightin’ each other so we don’t fight back.

At this point, maybe the real question ain’t “How do we stop it?” but “How bad does it gotta get before folks wake the hell up?”

What happens when it’s YOUR job cut? YOUR house gone? YOUR medical care disappear? ‘Cause if history’s any lesson, it ain’t gonna stop ‘til folks got nothin’ left to lose.

So, y’all tell me—are we past the point of no return, or we still got a fight in us?

Drop a comment below. Or don’t. But if you think this is just gonna “work itself out”… whew, buddy. I got some prime oceanfront property in Nebraska to sell ya.
