And yet you're thinking about it, a lot more than most people do. Maybe there's nothing much you can actively do, maybe there is. You're being hard on yourself when you've only just begun the first step, which is thinking about a problem. Give yourself a little time and grace. I will.

This is farm country, and there are plenty who don't have that level of inference yet. The old timers remember immediate Post-Depression efforts and the second Great War, so they're cottoning on. Admission? And panic the children? These things are discussed in the fields, not in public.
