General Discussion

My life has run the rainbow too. Struggled mightily in my 20s, was almost homeless at one time. Made mistakes. I've seen first hand how predatory everything is for low income people. You get terrible credit card offers that you then have to use in an emergency. Sub prime auto loans come for you when you have a car emergency. Everything from groceries in poorer neighborhoods being more expensive, to renewal fees on you car being above what you can afford just makes things seem hopeless.

I don't take anything for granted now. And I always take the time to try to remember what too many people in this country are dealing with on a daily basis. What that does to your psyche, to feel hopeless all the time.

But I believe in my President and see that he has done more for the poor and for the working class than any President in my lifetime, and I see things have a chance to get better for everyone.
