Poverty in America This site gives an idea of what its like to be poor in America. It asks : what do you leave out when you leave below the poverty line.
Seeing this site hit me in a familiar place, an angry place. I cannot abide the suffering of mothers who cannot protect or provide for their children. The notion that this great big "mother" earth, and we humans as her caretakers, cannot provide for all mothers the resources they need angers me greatly. The fact that we cannot do so in the world's richest nation makes my head want to explode.
heart lessons from my children on the journey to becoming a spiritual, maternal, spousal, productive, creative human being
Major Reforms Needed (as soon as I get around to it)
- ban "golden parachutes"
- build a national high speed rail system
- outlaw incandescent lights (because Robert says it is a good idea)
- reverse the Peeveyhouse decision (just to see what would happen)
- free admission to any Bar exam
- fire the Verizon voice mail chick
- red & white Starmints at every restaurant
The Fam
