I find the right greedier than the left. I count farm aid, gifts to big businesses, tax breaks- it's all pork to me. And everyone has a snout in- the richer the pig, the bigger the snout. You are letting your own prejudices inform your reading of my posts. But you can do that, if you want to.

I know some persons who are collecting disability pay outs from the Government and the checks are not just small like 2.800 a month for bad knees gleaned while playing catcher in women's pro baseball. Yet she rides a bike all over the hills of North Carolina...... THERE is nothing wrong with her knees other than she cannot play baseball but the woman is in her late forties and could not quality anyway. Makes me disgusted.... AND I know a veteran of Vietnam who has PTSD who did not want any help although he was an alcoholic and his vivid memories of Vietnam would provoke him to telephone late at night and talk about some of his ghastly experiences. Now, he has lost most of his friends to Agent Orange maladies and the Veterans Administration who is now paying him some money so he does not have to drive a truck and only because his sister intervened on his behalf says he has the effects of AO.. There are some of us who are greedy and some who are honest to a fault. I know mostly Greedy as I read about our politicians every day.
