Inspired by anarchist activist mamas.

I am educated,
I am on food stamps,

I buy organic and locally grown,
I buy used clothes,

I am pro-life, pro-choice, pro-family,
I am unemployed,

I read to my children and tell them stories,
I am angry, frustrated, and sad,

I recycle, compost, garden, and conserve water,
I am educated,

I am on food stamps,
I bake bread...

So many of us work hard and somehow still end up feeling guilty and left behind by our society.

We are the entitlement hungry slouches using up the government resources.

The tide of change is coming.

We are growing compassionate, thoughtful humans.
 
Government fear us.

Our children will change you.

For those who are not familiar with Ashland Wisconsin, it is the most north you can travel without driving into Lake Superior. The word "small town" some how doesn't begin to explain it.

I am from California, specifically the SF Bay Area. I moved to Wisconsin October of 2008, because I needed to get out of the material rat race. The majority of Californians live a life that is unsustainable. It has become a state that is unfriendly to raising a family, unless you happen to be wealthy; or you want to spend your life in a car in bumper to bumper traffic, to sit at a desk and work like a robot, and then drive home in bumper to bumper traffic.

Things here in Ashland are simple and difficult at the same time. While Ashland is far from ideal, it's a hell of a lot better than continuously going into debt buying food, crossing my fingers I don't get sick, or hit by a car because I'm uninsured, and in debt up to my eyeballs from buying food, gas and medicine.

For MOST of us, our society is broken and we feel the affects everyday. Our government is nothing but ridiculous puppets with the hands of big corporations up their you-know-what. But what is worst, is that people just don't F***ing care. They sit around with their mountain dews, rotting their teeth out, texting on their blackberry-droid-pod, and say, "uh I don know."

Global warming is just something that is a "theory," just like evolution, right? If you believe in the right god, in the end, it doesn't mater. So... go ahead stock up at Wal-mart. Pile your useless crap up outside for the garbage man to take away to some invisible place you've never seen. Out of sight out of mind. Keep telling yourself that you have no other choices. You have to make a living too, right? No one else is going to take care of you. Especially with all those entitlement hungry slouches, flooding the system.

Well, it will all catch up to us sooner or later. Social change may come too late.

Sorry, I'm grouchy.

Inspiration for the future ironically comes from the past...

Harry Truman
was a different kind of President. He
probably made as many, or more important
decisions regarding our nation's history as
any of the other 42 Presidents preceding him.
However, a measure of his greatness may rest on
what he did after he left the White House.

The only asset he had when he died
was the house he lived in, which was
in Independence Missouri .
His wife had inherited the house from her
mother and father and other than their
years in the White House, they lived their
entire lives there.

When he retired
from office in 1952, his income was
a U.S. Army pension reported to have
been $13,507.72 a year. Congress, noting
that he was paying for his stamps and personally
licking them, granted him an 'allowance'
and, later, a retroactive pension of
$25,000 per year.

After President Eisenhower
was inaugurated, Harry and Bess drove home
to Missouri by themselves. There
was no Secret Service following them.

When offered corporate
positions at large salaries, he declined,
stating, "You don't want me. You want the
office of the President, and that doesn't
belong to me. It belongs to the American
people and it's not for sale."

Even later, on May 6, 1971, when Congress was
preparing to award him the Medal of Honor
on his 87th birthday, he refused to accept
it, writing, "I don't consider that I have
done anything which should be the reason
for any award, Congressional or otherwise."

As president he paid for all of his own
travel expenses and food.

Modern politicians have found a new
level of success in cashing in on the
Presidency, resulting in untold wealth.
Today, many in Congress also have found a way
to become quite wealthy while enjoying the
fruits of their offices. Political offices
are now for sale.

Good old Harry Truman was correct
when he observed, "My choices in life were
either to be a piano player in a @#$% house
or a politician And to tell the truth,
there's hardly any difference!

I say dig him up and clone him!!

This is not sent for discussion.

I don’t know if you agree or disagree.

I don't want to know one way or the other.
You know how I feel.
Enjoy life now, it has an expiration date!
