About Rider3

53 Year-old woman living south of Boston. Married for 20 years; no kids. Would rather spend time with animals or in nature. I am liberal in that I believe in social safety nets. Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, unemployment benefits, heating assistance, food stamps, job programs, fire, police -- just a few of the social programs I support. The top 1% can put a crowbar into their off-shore bank accounts and start paying what they should. No one made their fortunes honestly -- they stepped on people and/or took credit for things they didn't do. Everyone needs a helping hand sometimes, and it's not because they're lazy. It's because life throws you a curve ball sometimes, and you can't get out of its way. Just because you have yours, don't hurt others by denying them theirs.
