This is "Not Your Father's Oldsmobile."

That old advertising slogan floated into my mind this morning.

People like to pretend -- or actually have been convinced to think this is normal. It is not. Not even close. This mess is growing arms and legs every day that will reach into every aspect of the economy in negative ways -- if common sense does not prevail. Soon.

Have you read the details about our new vulnerability?

Last week our national cybersecurity was put under greater risk with that impulsive firing. We are now more vulnerable to our enemies who would love a bloodless -- and cheap -- war that would collapse us. Not just our money, as it floats around in cyberspace, but our electricity and water, the grid, all the normal things we take for granted. I never used to think much about our country's cybersecurity. I figured brainiacs somewhere in our government had it under control, no matter who was in office. Now? Oh my, yes. I am worried.

Btw, If you remember that Oldsmobile ad, then you also remember what happened to Oldsmobile.......
