Inside the gold bar grifting scheme that's defrauding Americans
9h

Kris Owen, a 79-year-old Vietnam veteran, had planned to spend his golden years in Indiana with his wife, Karen. They wanted to spend more time with his son and travel the world together.

But she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019, and the COVID-19 pandemic hit soon after.

“All of our plans for travel and everything kind of went out the window,” Owen told ABC News.

Two years later, Owen's wife passed away.

"Probably one of the reasons I was so susceptible to what happened to me," Owen said.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

"Continuing resolutions" that have been passed the last 15 - 20 years instead of true budgets couldn't have anything to do with all this crazy spending, could they? :shrug:
