23. One who see the pantry lines growing.

One who sees people in homeless shelters that are doing all kinds of programs that say they will help them get a job and get into a home. Then for those people to find out that the program does not have the funding to do what they say or the program is so outdated it is just a revolving door. It is just there to try and look like something is being done.

A person who has seen whole families living on the street.

A person, thanks to legislation being passed to protect such companies like the insurance companies, lose everything and was not paid for it, even though I paid for 6 years on the plan.

A person that will tell you and everyone in this country that the Congress as it stands right now needs to go!
