I agree 100% with you!......I used to make over $8k a month.....Now disabled do to work, I receive a little over 2k...

Between the media, and one of the political partys they want everyone to believe that when your on the government dole your on easy street!

Life is hard enough just living day to day......But juggling bills, and different bills due on different days makes it impossible to save, and just scrap by.

If there is one thing that lights my fuse is when some one says, " wow if I was off all day, I would get so much done"....Yea right, sure you would....Always forgetting how hard it is to the one they insult!
