I know there are plenty of people that need our help. Theres an old saying and I think it is r true to a point. Show me your checkbook and I’ll show you where your heart is. I dont mind one bit giving to my church, missions, red cross, Aids research, or any other charity, like MADD. My nephew was an off duty Chicago cop who was killed by a drunk drive 2 yrs agor so I really support it, but I want to be the one that says where my tax money goes as far as giving it to other people. I know police, fire and other groups need it, but I dont want it to go to the group who want to study the impact of cows letting out gas on global warming, nor do I was to pay for ppl whose job is staying on well fare forever.
As for wanting to know where the bailout money is going, Amen to that, I heard the same story where other business have their hand out wanting a nice holiday bonus. I dont bout any of you, but putting in 60-65 hrs a week loading and unloading walls from stages used for shows, then loading them on trucks bringing them to another studio them take them down again and reset them up on another stage and back and forth is work that is too hard and dirty for me to give my money to some fat cat or some guy who forgot to read his contract before he signed.
Yep, I’d like a link, a truthful link that tells us where every dollar is going, to both business and people on the street. The only way we can prosper as a nation and this is just my opin, is with good family structures and a stong middle class and I think the middle has been raped since president kennedy died but just about everyone who followed. JFK had it right man.
“ask now what your country can do for you, but ask what you can do for your country”
Civil rights was signed by LBJ, but it was JFK who made it possible. I know plenty of blacks fought very very hard to get it , so please forgive me if Im acting like it was only white people who brought it in the open, I only meant as far as presidents go.
Nixon took credit for landing on the moon, but that was JFK too, boy looking back that sure seems like a long time ago for me.
Goodnight all
