Stargazer99 (946 posts) Why I no longer pledge allegience Last edited Fri Jun 14, 2013, 02:49 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1)Exposure to radiation from Hanford Atomic site (Born in Pasco WA 1940) when the government released radiation, yes I had thyroid problems ( a common problem to radiation exposure) 2 generations of dental problems-employment was not enough to pay for rent, food, etc and doctor or dental work. My heart aches for my 2 girls that have had to have false teeth due to lack of money to care for them. And one dentist that took welfare patients told my grandson that his teeth were so bad that he might as well not continue dental care. So much for the quality of care for poor people. Lost an inheritance because I could not afford to hire a lawyer to keep my Uncle's family from manipulating the Uncle into cutting me out of the will (my aunt was married to him and had to set up the will in case he became ill he would have access to the assets)-again work did not provide enough funds to hire a lawyer to protect my interest. After a divorce I had to rely on welfare and go to work with no transportation or decent child care half the time. Cars and good childcare take money that you don't earn on a lower class income. Retirement is a laugh, I work two jobs at 70 yrs of age so there is a roof over the head, retirement is for middleclass people not the lower income crowd. If I had lived in developed Europe I would not have faced these life situations without help, why should I honor this nation? I still don't know what to do with my anger, and I imagine many others have been shafted also

Sad tale indeed and, not one bit of it was her fault.

My Grandma used to say "They'd lie when the truth would do better".
Born in Pasco WA 1940 I work two jobs at 70 yrs of age
She must have one hell of a time trying to balance a checkbook.
