Imagine doing this much public service then retiring into a regular job because you are a chill guy who just likes helping people

Something the rich parasites would never understand

King George, upon learning of George Washington's intention to resign, said "If he does that, he will be the greatest man in the world."

I'm not here to lionize or even defend slaveowner George Washington. Your comment just made me think of that.
