When I was growing up in suburban America, I had several neighbors. Some of them had children who I could easily play with them. Others were singletons and lonely people without children. My immediate neighboring home had three to four people living in it. I would watch them day in and day out. They would sit in chairs on their balconies. They do nothing, but smoke and look out into the open. Hanging on the outside of the balcony for all to see was the Prisoner of War flag that symbolizes that they served as veterans of the Vietnam War. They would sit on their balconies all day and I would never see them leave for their jobs. They probably don't have jobs. They probably live on government assistance through veteran benefits. Before I moved, the kind neighbor gave me two photographs. One was a photograph of George Washington's Delaware River Crossing and the other was a Portrait of Former President Ronald Reagan. I see now.
They obviously support a political party known to cut programs that alleviate poverty. Yet these same supporters are taking money from those same programs. Their so called political party doesn't take the lives of Americans in combat boots seriously with two wars, which are still unfunded, and the first wartime tax cut in US History.
How ironic!
