So, Jennifer, who are you really pissed at? People like me who actually do work for a living, never have one thing handed to me, and yet my bills grow faster then my income- and not because I actually BOUGHT anything. It just happens. Taxes, insurance, gas prices, etc. Cost of living goes up 25% and income goes up 4%.

I'm not making excuses for myself. I'm saying the problem doesn't start or stop with the 20% of people who have catastrophic illness or accidents a year.

Where is your soapbox when it comes to providing the absolute best medical care AND paying rent/mortgage for the people who don't work? And if they become disabled by breaking their leg on the way to the fridge, we pay for that, too.

Stop acting like the working class is the bad guy. Must be nice to stand up there and point fingers.
