Still don’t understand it…

Well…I still don’t understand the adamant refusals to help Detroit out of it’s financial difficulties in any way…starting with, of course, repub senators, but then all the way up to Obama…what makes Detroit different than the bailouts that are regularly given for natural disasters? If the country can afford to give 60 billion dollars for repairs after Sandy, why can’t we afford a few billion to help the transition in Detroit? I contend that what has happened in Detroit is just a slow motion natural disaster that has unfolded over a few decades but it is no less devastating than a hurricane…and the people there deserve no less support than Florida get every year during hurricane season. What the hell is wrong with us as a people if we can’t help our fellow citizens in their time of need….isn’t Detroit as deserving as Iraq, or Israel, or any other country that we give foreign aid to? I just hope that we can smarten up and help…geez…

August 1st

Well…another month starts and it is my least favorite day of the month…I just hate paying my rent…but I’ve got to live somewhere…it was an okay day yesterday but I felt like crap all day…not sure what it was but I feel much better today even with being out with G for a couple last night….but, I still think there’s a bug going around and I may have one sow we’ll see how today goes…slept pretty crappy again but that is the new normal and I promised to not bitch about that anymore….I am sore everywhere even with skipping the bike ride yesterday so I do need the ibuprofen before I get started working out…not much to do today…I do have some errands to run and then some work around here but that is about it….I will be back for a political one later…
