So Sad in Missouri
Jill was going to write an open letter to the same ones you wrote too but I could not say it any better then you did. We by we I mean the people that need help and can't get it. I don't know how old you are but I'm 60yrs old and have worked all my life sence I was 14yrs old washing dishes paid my dues and now am left out in the cold cause the ones that care really don't, we are just numbers to them. They say unemployment is down well of course it is people are tired of getting the run around from the unemployment office when they try to draw unemployment for all the yrs they have worked and paid taxes they are told oh you need this and you need that people are tired of hearing that I, know I am. Never in my life did I think that I would see this world so messed up as it is. Not saiding it's all the President fault cause it was messed up before he ever took over this country.I just thought it would get better and it hasn't.Hope your days go better then mine has been going.
