MAGA wants to gut Medicare and Medicaid to funnel even more wealth to private insurers. The result would be inferior, more expensive care. These people don't care about Americans. They care about making money.

Throughout history, power structures considered to be oligarchies have often been viewed as coercive, relying on public obedience or oppression to exist. Aristotle pioneered the use of the term as meaning rule by the rich, contrasting it with aristocracy, arguing that oligarchy was the perverted form of aristocracy.
This was taken from Wikepedia. I believe it is very pertinent since it describes perfectly the exact conditions that are taking place in for instance the United States and Russia today.

Steve, I think I can agree that this is a game, and commenting the cosmic movie is fun.
So, I'm going to take some liberties here, and please remember that this is a game and I'm just having fun, even as you are having fun constantly hammering Mr. Trump and his cohort of friends.
But Steve, buddy, 58000 guests! Are you being serious? Do you really believe those numbers are physical guests? If so, I have the obligation to warn you that that's a serious illusion, that's a wrong sphere of thought to believe that this is a popular forum. This forum is even very hard to find by search engines.
No way, dewey, LOL, 58000 guests, Steve, if serious, let's pray: deliver us from illusion....deliver us from illusion....deliver us from illusion....deliver us from illusion....deliver us from illusion....deliver us from illusion....
For your games play… yes I said up to 58,000 take a look 👀… I can’t put that number there! I’m merely saying that we had thousands of guests a day at one time not long ago. And I’ve been around long enough to watch that number increase by the month and year since this site was created. So no I do not think are spiritual messages are futile. And even if we keep below 10 guests because of big business and our current government oligarchy we still have an important message to spread. It’s good to have humility but it’s bad to continually underestimate our worth and influence on others and as messengers of light. One light can bring light to a dark place. Have faith, have faith, deliver us from skepticism, deliver from doubt all obstacles can be overcome and grace is with us always! Let not the darkness of maya cloud our souls destiny and ultimate fate! 🙏

In such cases, when causes have been singled out, it is easy to intervene by taking supplements. You have been in a way lucky (so to speak) that your deficiencies stood out and are easily taken care of.
The causes may be many, I agree that Covid19 may be one of them, I would keep monitoring my blood for a while.
Vegetarian and even vegan diets are not necessarily devoid of iron, but it is always better to check one's nutritional status, by tracking the diet components and blood analyses.
I myself take a single pill of iron per week, as a precautional measure.
And, B12, your doctor is right in that with age it tends to be less absorbed, but the drop should have been gradual not sudden. I take some intermittent B12 supplementation as well.
Coffee: a rajasic beverage that should be handled with care, but it is not always pure rajas. The commercial varieties, those sold in bars here in Italy, are bitter and burnt and are a mix of rajas and tamas.
I discovered that so called specialty coffees can be a mix of rajas and sattva, they are aromatic, with tinges of fruit acidity an flower fragrances. Many of'em come from Colombia, where Steve is presently staying.
My advise: Do not consume after 1 or 2 PM, do not consume too much.

I understand your attitude, and mine is agnosticism. Aliens may or may not be around the earth, but since there is no outstanding evidence, it's like they were not here. It may be that there is some reason, it may be that we want to believe that they are here.

For the first time in my life my iron levels dropped dramatically last year on 2 occasions. The first time was very noticeable. I needed to have a lunchtime sleep every day, I was so run down and yes had trouble even thinking clearly. This happened early in th year the first time. Followed by a sudden drop in B12 to near zero. I had other long term symptoms too, a chronic cough, sneezing, insatiable itchiness.
At first doctor blamed my being vegetarian. I asked him to review my iron levels over the years. He then saw that they had always been good. So he blamed my age and said as we get older the body can't extract enough iron out of vegetables and legumes. Sounded like a cop out to me. He advised me to eat meat. I told him that wasn't an option.
I ended up going through multiple tests and seeing a specialist who took a lot of money but had no answers. My own research since suggests Covid being responsible for long term coughing and sneezing - widely reported, Covid for ongoing insomnia which is widely reported, and strangely enough there is a body of evidence that the Covid vaccines can cause iron deficiencies. No answer to the B12 drop but I'm firing on all cylinders presently so I gratefully accept the blessings of health.
As for coffee, its something I may one day try to overcome but not now. I was at a Convocation week with some monks last year and at least one of them seemed to relish his coffee. A very senior monk.

If the technology exists to support an aircraft doing what I was witness to then it remains very much held under lock and key. Incredible speeds from one part of the sky to another in the flash of an eye. The craft was mimicking a plane for quite some time before it began its crazy display. I have no answers and to be honest I don't need any. I'm much more curious about the kingdom within. All else is part of the show, though it is or can be very enthralling. I don't doubt the existence of higher forms of intelligence within this universe. If they do observe us then it doesn't surprise that they leave us alone. God is the cook, this is His cauldron, why spoil the recipe?

You are always welcome to your opinions friend. At one time not so long ago we had up to 58,000 guests on here so it wasn’t as if we had no influence. But big business along with Donald Trump and his billionaire friends stepped on us recently.
I know there are people here who feel we have gone overboard on some subjects. But there are other people who’ve been members here that left because there was too much emphasis on spiritual growth and development. An important member left because of ‘Trumpster fans’. At one time the site was called Music and Meditation then it evolved to Soul Searching forum. Finally it’s name is now spiritualportal and I remember a member leaving when the sites name was changed and who kept trying to convince me the name change was a bad choice. You can’t please everyone dear Brother mccoy.

Nobody is censoring anyone one else here. I’ve let people post what they want as long as it is with decency and doesn’t belittle other members and express anger towards other members. We are all entitled to make our own decisions and evaluations of other people’s behavior as long as it is not belittling their character. I believe that I have been courteous and respectful to others here at the portal. If someone feels I have not; Please let me know and we will attempt to discuss it as spiritual beings. This is surely not the issue, the issue in my opinion is going overboard with a single subject. And I strongly doubt that complaining about the POTUS in this forum will change a minuscule thing in 'real life'. Sorry if I sound like I'm criticizing your dharma, but again, this is hardly the place to be a political activist.
