Devaluing human life in terms of economics.

Just what I thought. If you aren’t contributing to making the federal government bigger then you are nothing.

Nothing to be said for teaching your grandkids things, enjoying some finer things in life, working part time at a museum or other things like that.

My father in law will be 82, and since 75 he has cranked out a book per year in family history for each of his son is laws or other extended family. He is doing research every day practically. This includes taking into account health that is slowly declining too. He is doing something Invaluable for his family.

Zeke is wrong. The discussions and opinions with these people need to end. Just tell them they are wrong.

We celebrated Ray’s birthday yesterday. He is 103 and looks 65-70 years old. He volunteers at our local hospital doing BP test on visitors. Lives alone, drives everywhere. He is a walking, talking inspiration to all of us.

BIL lived to 91 might have made 92 if he’d not had a A Typical Femur Fracture and died on the OR Table. My dad 97, both men were active until the last year of their lives. BIL ran horses and grew hay for them. Active in his community. Took 2 months to plan his Life’s Memorial so many came to it they had to rent out the VFW Banquet hall. Hubby is 79, still does most household repairs, some car repairs, trouble shoots our computers, teaches Math for Ham Radio Extra Classes. And we watch our soon to be 2 yr old Red Headed grand daughter when ever it’s needed.
