Am I the only only who finds it impossible to connect with a human @microsoft.com? I have a billing problem and it’s impossible to explain to a chatbot. I am so frustrated I’m ready to quit Word for Pages (if it still exists).

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

This Proves Three Things: 1. Trump and Hegseth disrespect those who die serving this country; 2. Trump’s “ceasefires” are meant to manipulate markets, not stop military engagement; and 3. Trump will dishonor our troops to maintain his "ceasefire" pretexts to avoid War Powers Act deadlines.

It’s infuriating that Trump can pay off people who committed treason on Jan 6, but he doesn’t care if Social Security payments will have to be cut 25%. Old people are just a drag on the economy to him and his fellow up billionaires. Might as well give them a kick out the door. Obscene.
