What is a sacrifice you are willing to do to make your country better ?

@AmericanaChick I'm not rich and can use the $ I get...but I agree.

@SomeMichGuy That's why I like that Biden only wants to raise taxes on the rich. Non-rich people shouldn't have to pay more.

@AmericanaChick The effect of various tax "reforms" is that it freed everyone from upper middle class on up to grow...but not the middle class (jobs sent or mismanaged away), and with dwindling support at the bottom.

Reagan's getting rid of Federal funding for mental health institutions created a lot of instant homelessness, and so the "crazy homeless person" is an oldish saw which has a sad, tragic kernel of truth, but also makes it easy to "other" or ignore the homeless.

Assistance programs need oversight, but it makes sense for us, as a nation, to take care of the most vulnerable. (For you Republicans/Libertarians who want to jump on this, read the Preamble to the Constitution.)

I want to thank you for being like Warren Buffett and saying the obvious truth. 😊👏👏👏👍

@nedkelly lolol,

@Graylight thats a good idea, i like that. just have to be careful to not take over actually paid jobs with volunteering

@RedFlower Hmm, delicate balance, that. But there has to be a way. There's always a better way - we've just gotten tired of looking forward for a while.

@RedFlower There are all kinds of things which can be done: rebuild trails in National Parks/etc., help imorove things in Appalachia, assist the Red Cross & FEMA in natural disasters, help kids & adults learn to read/do math, staff meals on wheels, help with activities for older people, call shut-ins, work at a food pantry or shelter, working with refugees, helping to teach English to newcomers, ...

Volunteer gigs like this would love an infusion of people...and make dollars go farther...and give people a better sense of what other Americans live like.

@GuyWithOpinions Amen.

@Rhode57 you could always volunteer and help other people maybe...

@RedFlower In no fit state to do that I barely have enough energy or feel well enough to go and shop once a week . I spend most of my time on my bed in pain feeling sick and unable to do anything but sit online on SW .

@Graylight Yes. Mommy has been busy over the years

@TheLordOfHell Look Jesus, you're a little spacey...wait a minute...

@Graylight Yeah? I thought I hid it pretty well

@FeetAreFantastic How about if you could volunteer at a podiatrist's office?

@Darksideinthenight2 if its a worldwar would it matter who started it ?

@Darksideinthenight2 fair point

@SW-User didnt you get paid for that though ?

@SW-User Benefits, right...don't you have a lot of veterans' benefits?
