You're welcome!
I may take heat for this, but I don't give a hoot.
The U.S. is NOT what a lot of people want to think or believe it is. True that this is not a Third World country, but we DO have people here living in Third World CONDITIONS. The Hurricane Katrina fiasco is a good example. People stranded for 3 days (at least) before aid came: No food, water, medicine, shelter. Dead bodies floating around. It was embarrassing.
Bottom line is that it is NOT a Utopia. The "writing is on the wall" about where this country is going, and it's not good.
The ol' "work hard & the American dream is yours" is a myth.
It works for some, but not all. Many hard working people out there who are no closer to that dream than when they first started out.
