Sounds like you had it tough and you're probably right on many points. We are never given real choices, to our fertility, to our job training etc that would really make a difference in how we live. The dem party used to represent the working man. And some of us are still here to rattle the cage. I too worked hard for years for around 5.50 an hour. Reagan, Bush1, Clinton, I made other people rich, now they are more than happy to shut me out as 'lazy poor'...fuck'em. Keep testifying, keep it in the faces of those who would deny us for not having been able to go to college, etc etc.
