47 Million Empty Baskets If Congress Shuts It Down ! #Hunger #Poverty #FoodStamps

image

My Friends Today I am writing about something that could happen that I hope doesn’t ! I am talking about Another Government Shutdown ! This time its over Funding Planned Parenthood ! But 47 Million Americans will suffer in this ideological battle !

Currently 47 Million Americans recieve Food Stamps or Wic ! Through the AFDC Program ! Food Stamps feed the hungry ! Wic is for moms and some dads with small children. Both of these programs are there to stop Hunger in America !
Who gets Food Stamps The elderly, disabled , workers with families, and the unemployed ! Why its humane !  We had soup and bread lines due to hunger during The Great Depression ! Why many were hungry and needed a meal ! Some would take Ketchup and hot water and make soup !

Will We Return to This Nightmare ? I hope not ! We have enough people baerely getting by now ! Many food pantries are low ! But to do this to The Poor in Your Own Nation is just plain sick ! 

The GOP gets this Starve The Beast Mentality ! From radical writer Ayn Rand ! A person who preached anti Government Rhetoric in the 1920’s ! Yet She herself recieeved Government help ! Making her and her movement A Fraud ! Yet we see members of Congress make her A God ! My Feelings on Congress doing this below

image

And If They allow 47 Milliion people to go Hungry …..This Must Happen !
We Just are NOT LEARNING AS A NATION ! KATRINA, and THE GREAT RECESSION should have been wake up calls to help The Sick, Elderly, Vulnerable,  and Poor ! But No they were not !
We had Pope Francis come preach to Congress this week ! I hope they listened ! Many of them claim to be Men and Women of God ! But to allow your people to potentially go hungry, starve and die ! Is Not Christian ! Its GodLess ! Like Ayn Rand !
As a person of Faith I belive in serving others ! Personally I have been hungry ! Its No Fun ! Why would you purposely put people in that situation ? Who would do this ? People with out a Conscience That is Who !

We had Shutdowns before Speaker Newt Gingrich 1995 Speaker Bohner 2011 ! And it reminds me of The Who Song : Won’t Get Fooled Again ! Where Roger Daltry Sings “Meet The New Boss Same As The Old Boss ! ” A Brrilliant Lyric by Pete Toenshend in the1970’s ! The song was about Change in Government ! But there was no change ….Sound Familiar All ? That is what the GOP is and does !

So lets All HOPE ON OCTOBER 1,2015 our Government is Funded and its poor can eat  ! I am one of them ! YES I TOO RECIEVE FOOD STAMPS ! And would like to eat ! So Congress Do Your Job ! Because IF YOU STARVE US …I HOPE YOU RESIGN ! Because Nov 2016 …..WE WILL REMEMBER AND AS YOUR HERO #DonaldTrump loves to say : “YOUR FIRED ”  Its Your Choice listen to your conscience and Do The Right Thing Please Congress ! Do Not let the EMPTY CART BE 47 MILLION AMERICANS FUTURE !

Greed Is Not Good America ! #Shkrelli #Trump #Scott Your Choice ?

image

My Friends The Above meme says it All ! It shows The reasoning and rationale of Martin Shkrelli (Pictured Above).  He is the CEO of Turing Pharma ! Before he was the founder of Turing Pharma, he was an investment hedge fund broker on Wall Street ! Now he is taking those tactics to new levels ! This week he wanted to as explained above charge $1,300.00 for a life saving pill ! Just Disgusting is what I say ! Now he says $750.00 Per Pill ! Please Mr Shkrelli Give me and the rest of us who are sick A Break !
He is Not Alone he shares a mentality with two similar people Fl Governor Rick Scott (R) ( Pictured Below )who made a fortune off Hospital Chain Columbia HCA ! He left under a cloud of suspicion with Fraud of   Medicare Medicaid ! Featured Also with Heartless Governors like him below too !

image

image

Donald Trump ( Pictured Above)  The Champion of Bankruptcy, too favors making money at all costs ! And is not shy about Putting His Fortune In Your Face !

This Mentality exhibited by these three men is so over the top that it must stop ! We can not let greedy robber barrons like this continue to have or seek power !  We Will be dead ! Forget healthcare these three men only want you to live if They profit off You ! Yes Profit and a Huge one ! Their greed knows no limits ! Gov Scott and Mr Trump may not be experts on much ! But when it comes to making money at All Costs Any Way Any How they are Experts ! As is Mr Shkrelli the pupil of both !

Do not be decived by these three ! All tbey care about is themselves ! Not You Or I ! Its called empty promises like the statemnt above with Mr Trump !

Right Now We have too many still Uninsured ! Like over a Million in Fl ! Including myself and Amy and Gen Rodriquez ! Because of the mentality of Gov  Scott and Shkrelli We have to beg for care ! Any Rodriguez is doing an online Fund Raiser to Help Gen  with Medicine ! Guess what more may have to do this ! Why because of the Greed of Mr Shkrellli and others !

Gov Scott and Mr Shkrelli have no idea what it is like to need medicine to live ! Mr Trump has no idea period ! We will have more peoole die like Charlene Dill did ! Yes Gov Scott you can run and hide ! But her needless death will follow you ! How many may die because of Mr Shkrelli ? I hope No one dies !

Look at President Kennedy ! He and his family were wealthy but gave back ! Gov Scott, Mr Trump, and Mr Shkrelli what do they give ? Nothing and they take and leave a mess ! A mess Trump – Bankruptcy, Gov Scott – HCA and The State of Fl, Mr Shkrelli – …??? The Pictured Governors who will not #ExpandMedicaidNow ??

Wake Up America ! These three men will leave our Healthcare, Nation, and  people – like A Trump Casino in Atlantic City NJ ! Bankrupt and Empty ! We simply must #ExpandMedicaidNow to enable all to have access to Medicine ! But we also must cap the price so all insured can have access to it  !  The road leads two ways America Follow The Greedy on a Trip to Nowhere but death and suffering ! Or to Dignity and Life ! Your Choice my Friends ! The GOP Shkrelli Plan Below :

image

Or Life and Dignity If We #ExpandMedicaidNow, and  Stop Price Gouging of Medicine with CAPS ! Thus saving many lives !
Thank You
God Bless

The Actual Moral Dilemma

Posted from WordPress for Android

GREED IN America Part II #Trump #Shkrelli #Scott HealthCare A Moral Dilemma

image

My Friends Today I am going to talk about the Moral Dilemma  ! We have a Moral Delimma as that we may be facing ! This Moral Delima is caused by Greed ! And it has Three Faces ! The First Fl Gov Rick Scott (R)  A billionaire Self made Hospital Executive turned Governor ! Who runs Fl like a company ! Who is pictued above in the meme .

The Second is Of Course Donald Trump ! We all know him the showboating TV Star Real Estate Tycoon ! Mr Trumps Mentality as shown bel

image

Mr Trump in All his arrogance and bluster shown above ! He is A Champion of Big Business and Bankruptcy ! Not the poor, workers, the sick and Uninsured !

Finally We have the new PosterBoy of Corporate Greed and Heartlessness ! Martin Shkrelli – The CEO OF TURING PHARMA ! Mr Shkelli (NOT PICTURED) wants to charge $1,300 FOR 1 PILL YES ONE  PILL ! And This Pill is No Aspirin either ! It is a vital lifesaving pill used to keep people with ADS Alive !

The views and heartless attitude of these three men reminds me of a story I read in my College Psychology Class ! I WILL TRY TO REWRITE IT as I can not furnish A meme !

The MORAL DiLEMMA :
A MAN GETS A CALL FROM THE DOCTOR : His Wife is ILL and Dying ! There is one Medicine That can Save Her ! The Problem : The Man and Wife are Uninsured and Have Limited Income ! .They have NO MONEY FOR THE MEDICINE …….SO WHAT DOES THE MAN DO ? How Can He Save The Woman He Loves ?  WHAT WOULD YOU DO ?

Ironically I asnswered : that I would BEG ASK FRIENDS AND NEVER STEAL ! Its ironic because I was Uninsured Then and am Now 25 years later ! That was 1989 ! Now its 2015 What has changed ? The Moral Dilemma I summarized was By Dr Heinz it can be found in a search  !

My point being We Face This in Today’s America ! The Moral Delima with Healthcare Greed and Big Pharma may lead to this as Medicine costs rise !

image

This is The World of Gov Scott, Donald Trump, and Mr Shkrelli ! They have no regard for Human Life ! Trump in delusions and simple mindedness says : “Go To The Hospital ”
Well Mr Trump Charlene Dill of Fl did that several times ! She needed Medicine and to see A Specialist ! She had no Healthcare worked 3 jobs and died at 32 of a Heart Attack on a persons porch ! Leaving 3 kids Orphans !
Yes Governor Scott You are Responsible Too ! You can run and Hide but By Not #ExpandMedicaidNow You Are Responsible ! All She needed was Medicine and A Doctor ! Yes Mr Trump A Doctor Not Just A Hospital !
And Yes Mr Shkrelli by NOT BEING ABLE TO AFFORD MEDICINE SHE DIED !  So Your mentality leads many in America even the Insured too to A Moral Delimma !  Do We Pay For Food, Utilaties Rent, Mortgage Cars ? What gets cut or is Unaffordable to many ?  Healthcare and Medicine ! That’s What its like my Blog Title A Gamble You Can’t Win ! Thats what we the poor and Uninsured, Elderly, Sick and Disabled do ! – Gamble with our own lives !

Its a Gamble I am Sick of ! Its a Gamble my Frienfs Amy and Gen Rodriquez face ! Amy has to do a Fund Raiser online to pay Gen’s Medical Bills ! Without my Dad helping me I would be dead ! President Obama Created The ACA (Affordable Care Act) to Avoid this ! President Kennedy A Millionaire and The monetary equivalent of the other 3 men would be horrified at their inhumanity ! As he said : “Much Is Expected As Much Is Given !” But Trump, Skrelli and Scott – All They do is take !

Yes thanks to the Greed of Gov Scott Trump and Shkrelli many may die ! Shkelli claims he won’t raise the Medicine that much ! But who will stop him if he does ! And Businesses copy each other ! So look out The Price of Medicine may go Up !
Doing this makes many good hard working peoole have to make a choice like :  The Moral Delimma ! But We have a better choice #ExpandMedicaidNow give people healthcare and Medicine ! America We Face A Moral Delimma with This ! What Are You Going to do ?
Thank you God Bless

Greed In America #DonaldTrump #MartinShkrelli and Big Pharma Vs America

image

My Friends today I am writing about a plaque in America ! It affects us all and could kill many ! Its called Greed ! I posted this meme on Donald Trump to illustrate how clueless the Greedy are ! Mr Trump is Not the champion of The People ! But A self promoter for the weathy ! He has flawed ideas on Healthcare For example A Trump Health Plan as Shown

image

Memo To Mr Trump : I told You before The ER and Hospitals are not the same as having a Primary care Physician ! Many Hospitals are over run and may go Bankrupt ! Why No Medicaid Funds to treat the very poor who like me can not pay ! But Mr Trump Loves Bankruptcy ! But a Bankrupt Health System can kill you !

Mr Trump is not the only clueless selfish CEO ! Yesterday Martin Shkrell CEO of Turing Pharma ! Decided to raise the price of an AIDS DRUG THAT IS LIFE SAVING FROM $13.00 TO $1,500 FOR 1 PILL ! This is disgusting and just plain sick ! To put greed ahead of Life and death !  Many like myself need medicine to survive ! People like Mr Shkrell will kill us ! This is his idea of Healthcare

image

This is just disgusting and plain sad and pathetic ! Mr Shkrelli has no idea what its like to need Medicine like many of Us do ! He has no idea of the debt we incur trying to stay alive ! He is a typical hezrtless CEO ! His Role Model must be my Governor Fl Gov Rick Scott ! (R) Another example of Greed ! Who also has no regard for the sick and profited BIG TIME OFF US !
I find it disgusting as a Medicaid Expansion Activist ! We at #ExpandMedicaidNow are fighting tooth and nail to see All insured ! My friend Amy Rodriguez is doing an online Fund raiser for her daughter Gen Rodriquez to pay her Medicine and Bllls ! The mentality of Shkrelli and Trump is just plain sick and inhumane ! They are the 2015 ROBBER BARRONS ! People with little regard for anything except money !

This is Just Not Acceptable to me and it shouldn’t be for anyone ! We must decide because Trump Care doesn’t care and you may die ! Mr Shkrell too with his greed may cause deaths ! So remember it could be you who need medicine and not be able afford it !

There is hope Democratic Party Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton the Former U.S, Secretary of State, U.S. Senator , and First Lady has a plan to CAP MEDICINE AT $250.00 A MONTH ! I support it it is a step in the right direction  While U.S. Sen Bernie Sanders  Vt also a Democratic Presidential candidate is prmoting Single Payer Healthcare ! Which will help alot of people too ! At least they have a plan unlike Trump and Co !

So the choice is clear support Greed or Save Lives by #ExpandMedicaidNow so all can afford Medicine ! Because the way Mr Shkrell wants it No person, insurance agency, or even Government could pay his price  ! And his price will kill you ! Remember you could need Medicine one day ! Do you want Shkrell and Trump making these decisions for you ? I wouldn’t ! The choice is Yours America !
Thank You God Bless

The Struggle Of Our Seniors and Disabled #Poverty Help Them

image

My Friends Today I am going to tell you about something that has been going on ! Something little talk about that desperately needs to be discussed ! The sudden wave of Poverty our elderly and disabled are now facing !
I live this myself as a disabled adult with my Dad ! I have no income and only recieve Food Stamps ! My dad helps me with expenses ! But I see it every time I grocery shop …..The prices keep going up !
Many Seniors on Food Stamps get maybe between $20.00 and $ 35.00 a month ! Yes A Month ! Now please tell me how can you eat on that ! Realistically We All Know You Can’t !
Many Seniors are on Social Security as are the Disabled with SSDI – Social Security Disablilaty Insurance or SSI – Supplemental Security Income , The Payments are between $500.00 and $1,000.00 per month ! Not much room for comfort in this economy ! Again you can not buy much food or Pay much rent on it ! Many Seniors and Disabled are out of money by mid month ! I met a homeless lady who was disabled last year and it caused her to be homeless !

image

When it comes to the Healthcare of The Elderly and Disabled the above meme says it All ! Yes many Seniors get Medicare ! But it only pays 80% of costs ! If you can not afford a supplemental policy Then What ? As people age it doesn’t get cheaper ! Many require more medicines, specialists , tests just to live ! I have a friend who inspired this blog today who is going through this ! The 20% Co Pay is Too Much for many seniors and Disabled ! Because they just do not have the income ! Not All Seniors and Disabled are blessed to have a pension or stipend !
We need to do a better job and take care of our Seniors and Disabled ! One way is to increase Food Stamps so they can eat ! Another is to offer more Public Housing for an affordable place to live ! Plus raise the monthly COLA COST OF LIVING ALLOWANCE in Social Security SSDI SSI too ! Finally We Should #ExpandMedicaidNow to All Seniors giving them 100 % Medical Coverage ! And Also add hearing aids, shorter times to wait for prosthetics, Wheel Chairs and other things to help them !
Many Seniors sacrified alot in life and deserve dignity so lets hope people will get it and Care ! Give Them the dignity of their golden years ! Not let it be monthly torture ! They deserve peace and dignity ! When You are old or disabled how do you want to be treated ? Its Up to You America ?
Thank You

17,000 DEATHS A YEAR IS UNACCEPTABLE IN AMERICA #ExpandMedicaidNow

image

My Friends The above meme speaks Volumes ! 17,000 Deaths A Year ! Why because there still are 17,000 people like myself who are Uninsured ! Yes some of the states did #ExpandMedicaidNow ! Thank you for getting it Pennsylvania,  Alaska, Indiana, and Montana ! But still alot of states Do Not Get It ! And in 2015 America That is Unacceptable !

We are a kind compassionate people ! It is 2015 not 1815 ! Lets get witn reality ! Although some States refuse to !  President Obama is still President ! He didn’t create the ACA to punish The American People ! Contrary to the Myth spread by Republican Governors like Rick Scott ! My Governor in Fl !  U.S. House Speaker John Bohner, Donald Trump, All GOP candidates for President, and Americans For Proseperity !

No President Obama signed the ACA into Law because he knew people like me needed help ! Help Yes ….Help ! Something that is a foreign concept to the GOP ! The same GOP many of whom are pictured be

image

low

Yes The Governors Pictured are slowly but surely allowing Poor Americans to DIE ! 17,000 A Year ! Why They refuse to  #ExpandMedicaidNow for the poorest of their citizens !

This should be an Outrage to All Americans !  It absolutely should be ! Why it isn’t – I Do Not Know ! Amy Rodriguez and Gen Rodriguez work hard and help many but are stuck along with me and 1 Million others in Fl as Uninsured !

Charlene Dill died on a persons porch of a Heart Attack in Fl at age 32 ! Leaving 3 children without A Mom ! Why because she couldn’t afford to Pay for insurance ! She was eligible for Medicaid in Fl ! But thanks to Gov Scott – She is dead ! A perfect example of a Needless death due to : Either A Flawed Political ideology or Pure Hate of President Obama ! You can decide !

Charlene Dill’s death should have been A WAKE UP CALL IN AMERICA ! Instead it became a wisper or Footnote ! And that is disgusting ! All life is precious and matters ! But to some it doesn’t and that is why we are where we are now ! Stuck with No Help , rising debt , no answers , and little help !

Is This What You Want America ? I hope to live a long life ! But with Gov Scott and Co. I MAY NOT ! Things must change and soon 17,000 unnecessary deaths are too much ! 1 Death is too much for a solvable problem !

Its Your Choice America Do Nothing and watch people die needlessly or DEMAND BETTER AND SAVE LIVES !! Maybe even your own because you never know ! What if you were uninsured like us ? Would you like it ? Or would you fight to change it and save lives ! ?……The Choice is Yours America ! Think about it ! We must #ExpandMedicaidNow and save lives ! Or …..17,000 more die ! Not a good choice ! I hope you help us to Demand better !

Thank You
God

The #FightFor15 and #ExpandMedicaidNow Vs. WAL MART !

My Friends Besides #DonaldTrump The American Worker has a real enemy in its midst ! It has been around over 50 Years and is Global ! I am talking about WAL-MART ! Yes The meme below is correct ! Wal- Mart is A Wefare Queen ! Bullying and Buying its way to Billions in Profits and assetts !  While treating employees like slaves ! Its called profits on the backs of others ! Who are stuck in a Low Wage little advancement job ! Yes you can be a Department or Store Manager ! But it is a numbers game only maybe 10 postions per store ! While the store employs over 100 people !

image

So What do you do if you are a worker who is stuck with no opportunity to advance ? You live a Life of poverty ! Not just with Wal-Mart but with All jobs paying minimum wage ! But Wal-Mart is THE POSTERCHILD… and ROLE MODEL… MANY AMERICAN SERVICE CORPORATIONS ASPIRE TO BE LIKE !

Why Because The Wal-Mart Model of Business features Few Full time positions with a 40 Hour Work Week ! Low wages and No Healthcare for employees ! If you do not have enough hours you do not qualify ! Thus leaving many service workers like me – Uninsured ! And in a state like mine Florida that refuses to #ExpandMedicaidNow ! Its a public Health nightmare !

Plus you often go on Public Assistance For Food Stamps, and if lucky enough Medicaid ****If You Live in A Stste That Expanded it ! So we have Wal Mart as the Hypocrites of The Year ! They take tax breaks right and left ! But oppose RAISING MINIMUM WAGE TO $15.00 ! A move that uplifts workers out of poverty and decreases the need for Public Assistane ! Thus as the Wal Mart loving business community says lowers Taxes !

You can’t have it both ways yet Wal-Mart Does ! As do McDonald’s, Burger King, and other Fast Food Titans ! They pay little ,give little hours or benefits and Work You into The Ground ! Many injuries occur and without health care cause the employees to worsen ! Many fail to report it due to fear of Termination ! That is Why #RightToWork Must END ! And The Sooner The Better !  Yes even Workers Comp can cause you to be fired !

Those Working Service Jobs are in a pitiful Trap ! Dependent on a company who uses you and throws you away ! Dependent on Government help with a GOP who want to take it away too ! The same GOP who is Funded by Wal-Mart and other service sector businesses ! So if you are a worker You lose No matter what !
image

That is why We must #RaiseTheWage #EndRightToWork and #ExpandMedicaidNow ! So we can do more than exist ! We can actually live and have dignity ! New York passed a minimum wage increase to $15.00 ! Come on America get with it ! We need healthcare so #ExpandMedicaidNow ! We Need Better Pay so help us #FightFor15 and #RaiseTheWage and stop #RightToWork and its Champion Wal Mart ! Because the above meme is reality for many and soon could be for many more ! Thank You God Bless

#FightFor$15 They Work Hard America Help Them !

image

My Friends Tonight I am inspired to write this blog ! I spent an Hour on Twitter reading amazing Tweets by the #FightFor$15 movement ! And They are amazing ! They want what I want with #ExpandMedicaidNow  1 Word #Dignity !

They deserve dignity as the Rents and Food Prices  keep rising and the wages they make are stagnant ! Read Some of the memes like this o

image

Really you have a whole generation of Americans living on $2 A Day Yes $2 A Day !  And it is disgusting ! Rent goes up in Miami and  Ft Lauderdale Fl Average rent is $1,500 a month for a 1 Bedroom Apt ! Do the Math many workers can’t afford it ! Many elderly and disabled can’t afford It ! And Fight just to have a place to live !

I would be homeless without my dad and even if I could work I still may be ! This just isn’t right to work hard and go nowhere !

But many are realizing that they are tired of going nowhere !  And like I did after having no Healthcare are doing something about it ! They are out in front of their restaurants and stores fighting to change the system ! A system rigged against them ! Through no fault of their own !
Rigged by Greed ! We didn’t learn from The Great Depression ! We had a wake up call with The Great Recession of 2008 ! But still many just don’t get it ! Like This meme here illusrates
t

image

This is why they #FightFor$15  they and many others are HANGING ON FOR DEAR LIFE !  And it isn’t pretty waiting finacially for the other shoe to drop ! Facing hunger and homelessness as prices increase to satisfy the GREED OF A FEW ! That is why they #FightFor$15 to get bsck the chance at the American Dream That they deserve ! The rules are WORK HARD BE REWARDED ! Not Work Hard Get Rolled by A Greedy Company ! That isn’t right and it isn’t American !

So I ask All who see them outside picketing talk to them SEE THEIR REALITY ! Help Them have dignity ! Help them out support this cause ! I remember my Mom as a fast food worker getting a dime raise and it was hard to get ! Now its RAISE YOU OUT THE DOOR ! When those who work hard play by the rules deserve BETTER FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMIIES ! Give the #FightFor$15 Their #Dignity and #RaiseTheWage !

Thank You God Bless

The #FightFor15 And Others #Hunger An Empty Basket

My Friends today I went grocery shopping with my dad ! We do this at least once a week ! But lately it is getting harder for us and many ! I depend on my dad for income ! I am disabled waiting on SSI . He is elderly and disabled and I take care of him !  I get Food Stamps ! The maximum allowed for a single person with no dependents. But it seems like we both can’t get through the month with enough food ! And I know We are NOT ALONE !

Many who are able to work for a living are struggling ! They have kids some are single ! But it doesn’t matter they live day to day in peril ! When they do not have to. They have choices to make many wouldn’t want to like to pay the Car Payment or Rent ? Or to not have health insurance ! Because they can’t.afford it !  Some of these are the very people I fight to #ExpandMedicaidNow For ! Healthcare is a luxury to many of them ! They face high rents high utilaties and get LOW WAGES IN RETURN  ! Many have to live together sometimes families combined or sleep on a friends couch ! Just to have a place to live ! Many disabled elderly and working people pay 2/3 of income for RENT and Utilaties ! Not Counting Food !

And its not just workers  many elderly and disabled are struggling with surviving too ! The price of Food continues to rise ! And some of the packages get smaller ! As the prices go UP ! UP ! UP ! Making a FEW THAT ARE RICHER and those who worked and are Working Hard POORER ! Many go to bed hungry or cut back so their kids can eat ! We face a real Hunger Problem soon if prices do not stabllize ! Bad enough you work hard for little struggle for a car and place to live ! But now We Fight to eat ! And in The United States of America This is JUST NOT RIGHT ! ?……We are better than that ! Too many come home with little food for their hard work !

image

This Is ridiculous to do this to people ! The picture above tells the story ! Many working hard to serve you a burger ,bag your Food, Stock A Shelf, Run a Register for You and I ! They do so  anonymously without notice ! While #DonaldTrump flies obnoxiously over them in his Helicopter ! Taking attention away from those who need it ! Yet they come home with little food ! Why because of cost ! Years ago you could spend say $200,00 on Food per month ! That is $50.00 per week ! And actually have extra ! Now you can’t ! That is why I posted the above picture of The EMPTY BASKET ! It is near Reality in Our Nation !  Many Seniors and Disabled struggle on Social Security and they make the same choices as those working do ! And this isn’t right ! Some on Food Stamps only get $20.00 per month ! Tell me how can you eat for a month on that !

I have been Hungry and its no Fun ! 22 yrs ago as a College Student all I had was rice or pasta twice a day ! It was NO FUN ! I never Forgot It and Promised myself No One I knew would ever go hungry if I could help them ! But We can help them by raising Social Security payments or Food Stamps for the elderly and disabled ! All of whom worked hard paid their fair share and deserve better ! May working deserve better too for themselves and their kids ! Raising the Wage to $15.00 Is More than fair ! It will uplift out of poverty and decrease dependence on Food Stamps too ! So its a WIN WIN FOR ALL !  So I support the #FightFor15  and We must #RaiseTheWage !

So We Face a choice Keep it the same America send your neighbors friends church members home with EMPTY BASJETS HUNGRY AND HOPELESS ! Or help do the right thing and #FightFor15 and #RaiseTheWage  ! The EMPTY BASKET BOTHERS ME ….AND THE POTOENTIAL  OF ALL WHO FACE IT !  Does It Bother You America

We At #ExpandMedicaidNow Proudly Support The #FightFor15 and #RaiseTheWage !
Thank You All God Bless
