Ross,

I should have trimmed a lot o fat off the previous b4 posting it.  What a mess...heh...but well-meant.

All in all I just feel the old adage, “The rich get richer & the poor get poorer,” has gone off the charts.  Perhaps there’s no relief from it.  Surely the richer aren’t going to volunteer to take a pay cut.  But that means were pretty much fcked, man, because the “public purse” is strapped already…and with the next vote comes more proposals asking for more & more & more…& the Treasury is designed to feed on itself regardless of the working-middle…so that’s just a perpetuated steel ball on oiled tracks spiraling downward into reflections in a pond where up is down and down is up and reality is forsaken for commingled revenues & jackboots in cahoots & bareback kickback design stratagem.   

I’m pretty sure we’re going to cancel our travel plans this year rather than feed the pig.

Is it good for us, learning to tighten the belt, to take it on the chin, to limit ourselves?

Perhaps, …but that doesn’t make it a fair arrangement.  I know, I know, who ever

said it’s supposed to be fair.  Right.  Right, …heheh, …right.  What a crock. 

We’re being fleeced.  It will eventually become common knowledge, if it isn’t already.

& real people are giving their lives in a theatre of war so that Rush Limbaugh can rut &

harrumph with a mighty squeal…and his fans can rub his tummy and call him daddy.
