85. We have raised almost $700 to help my sister.
That is great. I have tried to thank each individual who donated. Most of them probably think I am crazy. With each generous person I thanked, I got more upset. To think that people are helping a total stranger especially when things are financially hard for so many people. Before this, I was just so tired of the greed that I see daily. Now, I am overcome. I don't know.

Our politicians and their corporate masters (insurance companies, etc..) make us appear ruthless. THEY spend more money on "Defense(?)" than the total of all other nations combined. We are a GREAT people. We must take this country back. If "we" never really "had it", by God, it is time to take it, period.

Excuse me, I know how it feels to want to donate and not be able to. A generous stranger donated in my name when I first joined...

Thank the financial and non-financial contributors. Many of you I have been blessed to post with over the years. Everyone of you are great people that I consider friends.

Thom Hartmann, whom I greatly admire, asked me if I had set up a website. I have no idea how, but I will learn. I would love to be able to help my sister so she doesn't have to worry every night. Also, I want to be instrumental in getting universal health care. Hopefully, I can figure that out too.

Life is short, especially if you don't have health care..,that is WRONG. Every politician and news person worth a damn, KNOWS the truth. The CBO has shown them the figures, yet the profit is not there. Why should people live if "they" cannot profit from them?
It really is not a conundrum, it is greed.
Thanks, I will feel better after a good nights sleep.
