Why__--??

Why are the only jobs truly available to young workers inadequate to raise a family on?

Why do we have so many young families, or people who can't afford to buy a home or health insurance or other necessities??

Why are there so many homeless people??

Why do the costs of food, shelter,health care and transportation seem to be so much higher for the young and the old??

Enough of those easily answered questions> Now for a message I rrecieved in my email today. It was labled as profound and I agree.


A Simple Truth.......
A veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve ?
is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made
payable to "The United States of America," for an amount of ?Up to and
including my life.?
