Major upheaval would not be good

My “Golden Years” somewhere missed the boat. The two children I struggled to help through higher education could have gotten better jobs fresh out of high school. A beautiful home for sale, can’t sell it, but can certainly give it away.

Did you know that benefits for the poor are being slashed? One of them recently informed me. The middle class of which I’m a part is watching everything they’ve worked for slowly disappear. Let’s not forget the sick, being penalized to carry the load because they can afford to. Sorry, I wish I were in the same shoes.

However, this isn’t fair to them either. No one is a happy camper.

It saddens me to know that most people I know have a better credit score than our government.

I’d like to be ComEd. Need improvements for demand and supply — just ask the government — no problem. We have no voice in the matter. I’m not prepared to be without power. We can’t buy it at Wal-Mart, and so, we pay.

People are protesting, even Wall Street.

We fear of another recession. Someone, please, tell me when the last one ended.

Know what? The life of “Little House on the Prairie” might not be far away.

We could have a major upheaval, ready for a revolution?

I certainly don’t want to see it. Life, for the most part, has been good — I’d like to see it stay that way.
