WUS, now just because you and your husband raised kids, bought a home and paid your own way, don't go thinking that our generation knows everything. Afterall, this new generation has figured out a way to stay home, eat named brand foods, buy computers and cell phones and have our generation pay for it. Can't see any bad in that can you?
Lib, your disprect of WUS is typical. She speaks from having been there and done that. She has lived the life and dreamed the dream and did it all without help from the governemnt. People our age did that. We worked hard. We put away some money for our golden years. We paid into social security to help with our pension. That pension is now raped by those who want it all the easy way.
You dream of everyone being equal. It will never happen. Why? Because there will always be workers and takers. Those who aren't afraid to grab a piece of life and work for it will achieve much. Those who want to make excuses, feel sorry for themselves and rely on handouts will do so. They can't be helped. They can only be takers.
As for Ali,(Alabama from her first post) she too wants to feel sorry for the down trodden. Maybe because she lives that way.
