I'm about ready for a second amendment solution to trickle down economics. Working for less than a living wage without benifits is voluntary slavery.

We have a third world distribution of wealth in this shitty ass excuse for a country and Faux keeps blaming the poor who can't even get health care for our problems, while the rich bitch about being taxed on private jets.

It's time for some redistribution of weath in this country.

It may be mean, but I hope that all the rich snobs driving around in thier huge suv's looking down thier noses at the poor, calling the police on people just because they're homeless, and calling poor people lazy even though many of them work two jobs, end up being homeless and see what it's like. I'm fucking sick of Faux news calling taxing the rich punishing the people who are contributing to society when they're getting rich off the backs of the poor.

@PhiloAmericana agree

[PhiloAmericana]

@psybmw Well, the problems are created by the rich, and they're still rich. The poor are the ones that harmed by their actions. Karma? No, just further injustice. Your problem is that you think America is monolithic. It's not.

A billion people are starving today. Not for lack of food, but for lack of money to pay for the food. When will this change? When money and greed have little or no meaning anymore. When society actualy becomes a civilized society.

I am not going to say: God bless you. Because all our knowledge and insides into other peoples situations comes from experience . I believe in human solidarity, and I appreciate your initiative! People don't realize how difficult it is when you are out there in the cold. But this inhumanity is going global, and even in the richest countries in Europe, where I live, you don't need to be a criminal, psychiatric case, or drug addict to be left out. But nobody should be left out in my book!

@MsDezzyzRayz Should we not be able to help one another, what is the point of being? :P

God bless and take care. I'll pray for you. Be certain of that.

@liabatud67 Thank You ! So very nice of you to even take the time to write to me with some ideas. I've always worked on my feet so it's been difficult. Boy, I sure would hate to bill collect (the irony) - There is a call center here that I have been considering if the Doctors here in this Rural Location can get me well. I have learned a lot through all of this. Your a kind person for sharing the information. Bless You your message is very appreciated. When hurting all seems glib.

@MsDezzyzRayz Pursue the phone service industry. Not glamorous, many sad sacks around you in the adjoining cubicles but it's a living of a different nature.

You could even brave the world of debt collection from your home. There are no perfect answers but there are options available. I'm just trying to help. I would that you not suffer any more than you already have.

A job that pays a stipend is better than the nothing that is coming in when you have need.
