Rant and Rave for July 4
Observation
“I think it’s funny that the Hispanics get food stamps while the caucasians do not. My mom made $11,000 one year and they said she made to much to qualify for help. Now that is the American way ... work hard and give it to those who break the law. just like the ones in jail."
A revolt
“We should have an American revolt over how illegals get benefits better than U.S. citizens. I’m talking about a march on Washington and I’m talking about rattling the cages of some lawmakers."
Ludicrous
“It’s absolutely ridiculous to say that the hospital employees don’t deserve a raise. So what if they make a lot of money and you only make a little, does that mean only you should get a raise? How about the schooling? Remember when you were in school and they said go to college to make money? They listened."
EMS salaries
“Sure, health care professionals have jobs but some are not paid accurately for their jobs. Take EMS as an example. They have someone on scene that is not breathing and they have to figure out why this person isn't breathing and figure out what they need to do to get them back breathing. They have to do this in a few seconds and their pay is probably less than most secretaries who answer phones! They deserve their raises. They get called to robberies, people not breathing, wrecks, etc."
Door mats
“If we were to cut off a limb, for every white-collar crime a person committed, we would have a bunch of ‘door mats’ running the government, and at every level; city, county, state and federal. If you watch C-span, you will see 535 potential ‘mats’ now."
