Once upon a time, The Today Show was a program where people woke up to hear the latest news and info.

For decades, it was the sole morning news show since CBS had good 'ol Captain Kangaroo. Of course, Bob Keeshan hung up his multi-pocket jacket for the last time in 1984 and CBS This Morning expanded to his old 8 a.m. slot. ABC's Good Morning America has been waking people up since 1975.

Over the years, pure legends hosted Today like Hugh Downs, Barbara Walters, Tom Brokaw, Jane Pauley and too many more to mention. Of course, it all started with the great Dave Garroway in 1952, occasionally sidekicked with J. Fred Muggs, a chimpanzee.

Now, NBC seems to be monkeying with what all of that show's ancestors did back in the day.

Today, the beloved morning program is unwatchable at times. One would enter a henhouse and you'd get pure audio of the show. It's nothing more than Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb chick-chatting for two hours and Hoda coming back for the fourth hour to work with an even worse co-host, Jenna Bush Whore-er, Hager.

Well, last week, Savannah proved to the world how out of touch she is. During an interview with Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen last week, she proclaimed that Americans getting a $1,400 stimulus check is the equivalent of taking a whole bottle of aspirin to cure a headache. 

So sayeth a woman who makes $8 million per year and is reportedly worth $30 million. 

As President Biden keeps hinting at raising wealthy peoples' taxes - which is definitely needed - I'll betcha that Ms. Guthrie is shaking in her stilettos that SHE and not the middle class schlubs who watch her will be having to pay more in taxes. Same with her employer, Comcast, which is one of the most-bloated companies on Earth. 

I've said this once and I'll say it again: AMERICANS NEED MONEY. PERIOD. It's sad that other nations on Earth have given bigger stimulus checks to workers while we wait forever for one measly $1,400 check. But, as Biden has said, you give the middle class - or in this case, those making less than $75,000 per year - money, that money will be reinvested in the economy. BULLSEYE! 

Folks, the wealthiest Americans were paying 70 to 90% of their income in taxes in the mid-20th century. During this time, we saw this country grow like cray-cray. We saw interstate highways being built everywhere. Bridges, like the Mackinac Bridge were built, eliminating the need to take extremely long car ferries between the peninsulas. It just goes on and on. But, thanks to Reagan, the wealthy got to see too much money again and people of my generation were fucked. 

Sadly, I'm pushing 40 and only now am I planning on getting my first house. My generation (X), along with Y & Z were fucked over by the baby boomers and the fact that they felt that Reagan lowering taxes on the rich was the best answer for America. For years, I was lied to, being told that I will get a raise and not to worry about finances. Well, all that changed over a decade ago when I got into an accident. 

The good news is that after my dickhead of an ex-boss retired, I got raises left and right. However, a lot of my paychecks went into paying off credit cards. 

In all honesty, I learned a lesson from all this: when a Democrat is president, the world grows. The biggest problem on the planet now is that people like Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and others are TOO rich and that the income gap in America is too far and too wide. Republicans like Fucker-er, Tucker Carlson think that "WAP" is the world's worst problem. No, it's the fact that Jeff Bezos gets to sit and relax in his pool with zero problems while his employees at Amazon are having to wear fucking diapers because they don't get a piss break. Or maybe it's the fact that many are wondering when their next paychecks will come. 

Savannah Guthrie has nothing to worry about except for one thing: RATINGS! Yep! Today is Good Morning America's bitch. To me, GMA is probably the lesser of all the morning show evils since it's not a yenta-fest and it's not co-hosted by a BFF of Oprah's. But, as long as Savannah's out of touch with her viewers, well, here ya go.

At least they haven't hired Ivanka Drumpf yet.
