“My Father told me way back when that nobody owes you a living.”
My Dad and yours must be related. The thought of relying on government hand-outs is repulsive to me. Not so with an ever increasing number of bums in this country.
My Aunt was Blinded by Glaucoma when she was in her early 20’s. Back then there was no treatment option outside of taking out your Eyeballs to lessen the pain from the pressure.
She worked for years Sewing Garments in what we would call a Sweat Shop today. She didn’t bitch and she didn’t moan.
She got up every day, got herself ready and walked to the Bus Stop using her Cane. No Seeing Eye Dog, nothing.
These friggin Snowflake Marxist SOB’s don’t have a clue.
About my Blind Aunt.
When the Clothing Factory closed down my Father had to forcibly take her to the Welfare Office so she would have an Income to pay her Rent (at my Mother’s, her Sister, urging).
She got $10 a week and she was embarrassed to take it. She found a new Job six Months later and got off Welfare.
Nobody in our Family had a Pot to Piss in or a Window to throw it through back then. We lived in a two room Brownstone Basement Apartment with no Heat when I was born.
My Father got $3 off the Rent because he put the Garbage Cans for the entire Building out for pickup.
I have no patience for people who think they deserve what others have simply because they can draw a breath. They get to draw that breath in the greatest Nation ever to exist on this Earth.
That should be enough to get them off their asses and stop complaining. Life can always be worse.
The pontificating switch is now off. LOL
