you made it sound as tho i should be grateful, that all i have comes from the govt. i disagree with that. those hidden benefits, folks like me pay for. i know where roads come from, i'm well aware of who pays for much of what others receive. people like me. you say the govt allows me to have what i have? i say it's because of people like me we have a govt that has money to pass out to others, and a way to pay for all the 'hidden' benefits. this govt is of and for the people. you seem to have that backwards. it's because of people like me, my husband, my uncle, untold cousins, my sons, my nephews, that we have what we have-that you have what you have.
oh, and my water comes from a very deep well in my yard.
