My point is, while we do have Congress and we do have the power to change the problems we've got in this country, no one is doing it. Congress just got back into session after a month off. A MONTH OFF. If I stopped working for a month I'd be in the welfare line looking for public assistance to get my kids milk and bread. If my mother took a month off work she would not have the medicine she needs to keep her healthy.

As I stated in my letter, I'm not an uncaring person, and I do feel that we all need to give and give more, but I also think that this government needs to not forget about the needs of its own people.

Ok, i understand better, but it is politics, and when you have two sides to politics not all the issues are worked out. And sometimes help isn't possible. But yeah, the U.S. ain't perfect.
