I'VE BEEN OUT OF WORK FOR 18 MONTHS FOR SEVERAL PSYCHOLOGICAL PROBLEMS, WHICH WERE EXACERBATED FROM MY CURRENT, YET SOON TO BE FORMER EMPLOYER, THE STATE OF MAINE DOC.
TO SAY IT'S BEEN A TOUGH ROAD IS PUTTING IT MILDLY, AND I'M 1000% BETTER OFF THAN MOST UN-EMPLOYED AMERICANS. AT LEAST I'VE GOT A ROOF OVER MY HEAD, AND FOOD STAMPS.
I STARTED WORKING AT 14, AND HAVE BEEN PAYING TAXES SINCE THEN. I'M NOW 55, AND CAN'T GET ANYTHING FROM THE MAINE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES, EXCEPT FOR FOOD STAMPS. I THINK I PAID IN A LOT MORE TAXES, THAN WHAT I'M NOW RECEIVING FOOD STAMP WISE.
I SHOULD JUST COUNT MY BLESSINGS AND SHUT UP, BUT I'M SO BITTER OVER THE LONGER FOOD PANTRY LINES. THESE LINES ARE GETTING LONGER AND LONGER, AND YOU NOW SEE ENTIRE FAMILIES WAITING IN LINE. WHAT HAVE WE BECOME AS A NATION.
HAD PRESIDENT ELECT BARACK OBAMA LOST THE ELECTION, I WAS MOVING TO CANADA FOR ASSYLUM.
SO AMERICA, LET'S START THE BALL ROLLING TO FIX THE MESS WE'RE IN. WE CAN REALLY START NOW, BUT AFTER 01-20-2009, WE CAN REALLY START TO WORK HARD, AND THE HARDER WE WORK, THE BETTER THE RESULTS WILL BE.
CHEERS, AND BEST REGARDS,
PRACTICALLY HOMELESS
