Payson is a strange town. Houses run from multi million to run down chain link fence messes. The trees and terrain make a lot of the bum shunkle stuff invisible, but the sheer amount of the social security survival crowd is astounding. Social Security is a form of welfare. Someone will shout no, but the reality is without social security a lot of people would fall off the edge. Republicans want to end social security. It would be a disaster. The people living mostly on social security were incapable of managing money. Social security does it for them. Social security is doled out monthly. If you gave a person on the edge a yearly social security check they would blow it on lottery tickets and the casino in a week.
When you travel the United States you see the results of income inequality. The rich moved into exclusive compounds and left the riff raff to the trailer courts. Our economy is a wage slave economy where the intelligent exploit the ignorant. Trump is the god of the stupid. As Trump sells them Bibles they cheer.
