You knew the kid who got to go to Chicago to see the BEATLES (1963)had a rich Dad.... [View all]

Sometimes it just kind of smacks you in the face how there are really rich folks and really poor folks in our country. Wasn't that way when we were growing up. You knew the kid who got to go to Chicago to see the BEATLES had a rich Dad....that's about all. My neighbor makes $9 Grand a year, disabled. In Walker's Wisconsin gets $15 a MONTH in Foodstamps. Pennies a day. And now Trump is coming after that....I was reading a magazine today at the gym, and one of Paul Newman's watches just fetched $3.7 Million at auction. So some guy has $3.7 Million just to mess around with.

That's all.
