This country really has some major problems!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is no reason why anyone in this country should have to worry about having food to eat!!!!!!!!
Our leaders seem to only care about keeping the status quo. Keeping the white man in power. Keeping the money in those families. Their goals seem to focus on helping themselves and the others on the top with them.
If you ask me, I think my job is more important than a lot of the politicians jobs. I do not get paid anything close to their salary and believe me, I take my job much more seriously!!!!!
Our elderly people get a lot less after paying into the system for 30+ years than the immigrants just coming here do!!!!!!!!!
I am proud to be an American, but what is happening to us?

Things like this are on my mind every day. I don't think anymore. I try, really try, to turn around in my tracks and do Something for Somebody. It can be as small as a smile or as big as helping a woman w her rent. I guess catfood is easier to shoplift than a bag of noodles.
My local drugstore said that the most commonly stolen things from their shelves are arthritis meds. Things like that make me wanna cry and get me mad at the same time. Meanwhile our fearless leader is sending millions, or is it billions, to Mexico to help them fight their drug problem. And don't get me started on Iraq.
I guess that brighten the corner where you are is all any of us can do. Otherwise we will have heart attacks from the stress and be useless to everybody.

I do realize it and it's pretty sad when we have billions of dollars going everywhere but here!! We should take care of our own doorsteps first!! My Mom and Dad are on Social Security and have to watch everything they do to make sure they are not going to end up in trouble!!

I can get a can of tuna for less than a can of cat food.

Unfortunately SOME do, my grandparents did not. Not all elderly folks are needy.
