How many would have stood around and milked it for all it was worked? Yet he gets in his car and heads to his $10.00 an hour job!

This week I heard that people on the internet had already pledged over $150,000. Hope he got something nice.

Wish we still had many millions like him, as we did in 1960, but we don’t, do we?

All I’ve got to say to the scumbags who protest for $15 per hour to work at McDonald’s part time is ‘you clowns should be ashamed of yourselves.’

He is modest, has a great sense of humor and a drive/work ethic deserving the attention and reward.
Bravo.
Perhaps his story will inspire the next generation...we can certainly use a lot more like him!

This is Detroit, MI, folks. How long before someone either steals his car or tries to carjack him?
