Your Government Failed You, and Your Loved Ones
What to do?

They took away your opportunity to make enough money to support those that you love.

They took away, piece by piece, the ability of those older people you love to be able to take care of their basic health needs.

They took women with and many times without children, who couldn't work, and left them on the street.

Does anyone have a digital camera?

Your government has failed you, and the ones you care about.

You don't have to be part of the immediate family. Your government has failed you just as much as it has failed those who can not speak for themselves.

Homeless women with their children.

In the "richest nation in the world".

Living in shelters and the street.

Your government failed you.

Remember all the Vietnam Vets? I've known a few.

They are all dead now.

Agent Orange or heroin. It's all the same.

Your government failed you.

What the hell is a government for?
Supposedly to help.

In a fascist society, that is not how it works.

Get used to it friends.

Your government is not my government.
