You should run for congress. We need people like you in there.

It is a shame the way our government is run these days.

You are a curcader. I love you. You've got my vote.

"Come on all of you big strong men. Uncle Sam needs your help again."

That was written in jest back in the 60's or 70's by Country Joe but it is truer than ever now.

Ya know, MJ, as I get older, I wonder about all the greed in the world. I've been watching a show PBS about 3 families who took up the challange to life frontier life as it was back in the 1800's. One family had a ready made house. One had some carpenters to help build thiers and one family had nothing at all. The ones with the ready made house were willing to help the others at first but soon started looking down their noses with distain at the others. The poorest accepted their lot with dignity and ones in the whined and complained. Looks like the more times change, the more people remain the same.

The poor and middle classes will always be cannon fodder for the wealthy. I don't believe it will ever change. In fact, the longer we watch American history unfold, the more it becomes like the history that caused us to revolt and become a nation in the first place.

I'm rambling. Enough for now. Love and blessings.
