    No Wonder Our Country Is Going The Way It Is

     
    I grew up in a time where we give back to our communities if we can. If we can do something for others, we do it and no need for payment.
    Yes I am one of the federally disabled. Yes I hear over and over again how naive I am. In fact, I was slapped in the face of this attribute of mine just today. I am a volunteer for the state of Oregon.In which case I contacted a host of newspapers to help get the word out that we need help! More volunteers!
    For only $850, or $100 a month this newspaper will advertise the state needs volunteers.
    Sure , one can argue our taxes are being misplaced and all that and folks will read this and laugh at how naive I am.
    BUT you know what? I dont think I am so "disabled", I feel maybe it is all you who are the disabled ones.
