That those recipients of much needed benefits will soon be joined by those that have supplemented the supplies of those benefits.
It's been a good system that killed 2 birds with 1 stone. Until the Felon decided to fix another "problem". Goodbye mom and pop farmers. It may not seem like it, but we Americans, appreciate you. To bad you didn't recognize it before supporting people that don't.
I grew up in the system living on food stamps, that I was embarrassed about everytime my mom pulled out her book of tickets. I remember being taken to the clinic in East Los Angeles along with my little sister to an old building filled with the echoes of screaming babies receiving shots like clockwork. We lived right up the street. And, we got our shots and sugar cubes.
I remember waiting with my mom for what seemed to be all day at the Social Services office almost monthly.
How appropriate that I write this on Mother's Day because that's how some recipients referred to the 1st of the month. Unfortunately, I was too young to appreciate my mom for the embarrassment she must have felt or what she had to experience to keep food in our stomachs and I certainly didn't appreciate the Federal Government for what they provided. Let me say here publicly to my mom and President Johnson, the U.S. Gov't and the voters of the 1960's, thank you.
To the families of today, I'm sorry. I and so many like me, failed to protect you and provide for you when you needed us.
Rest easy knowing that billionaires like the Felon and Elon and the Kochs and the Waltons and ....... are protected and will never go hungry or homeless thanks to the Federal Gov't and the Republican voters who put them there. Oh yeah and soon children won't have to endure those painful shots or bitter sugar cubes because once again, the Federal Gov't will remove those protections.
Happy Mother's Day!
P.S. My mom stopped taking benefits as soon as possible, 10+yrs and has assets worth over 1.5 mil. and has a daughter that is a Doctor.
