"Ask not what your country can do for you...." does not sound like any of today's Democrats to me.
Agreed!

I remember the day well, even though I was young.
We were let out of school early, and a lot of older students were crying.
I was too young to completely understand.
When I came home my mother was crying.
In retrospect, the one item that I always admired, was his standing his ground
with the Cuban missile crisis.
He had leadership quality and credibility in his short term during a very troubling time
in this country.
I will not bring up the controversies, or negatives.

JFK was a life member of the NRA. His brother Teddy, on the other hand, was public enemy #1 for anyone who supported the 2nd Amendment as well as for any young women who were unfortunate enough to be a passenger in his car on a night that he had been drinking.

Makes me feel really old remembering those days, but of course I am.
Nearing the finish line of moving into a different house; 10 years ago I could have cruised through this experience.
Not now.

My plan is to relocate when I retire in 5 years but, as you said, moving is a young person's game. The one positive would be downsizing, getting rid of what I no longer need.

Less is more / your move will be much easier than mine was

No doubt. Other than a few big pieces of furniture I should be able to move it all myself.
I am not quite so certain that I will be moving. Yes, I want to be closer to my daughter and son-in-law when they begin their family, but my mortgage on my condo will be paid off just before I retire so, really, my only expenses on the property will be the taxes and HOA fees. If I were to move I would most likely rent their townhouse as they will have moved in to a larger home. My rent would cover their mortgage which is probably two or three times more than what I would pay if I were to stay here. My son is uncertain as to where he wants to live but knows for sure that it is not here.
