They DON'T deserve it by simply being born. They deserve it because they earned RESPECT by being low level Sargents and enlisted men and women in ALL branches of the US military. I say RESPECT them. And RESPECT the low-ranking police patrolmen and women. Respect the low-paid staff of workers in every hospital in the USA. Respect the dog walkers and the UBER drivers and taxi drivers. Respect the staff in a Hospice that cleans the bed pans and deals with end-of-life problems.
.......Respect ALL the low-paid WORKERS that make America WORK and get little attention and barely survive in an economy where their protectors - the worker unions have been for all practical purposes PUT TO DEATH in today's economy. But Wall Street enTRAPanors seem to be THRIVING. And, will they be so cocky and self-assured when they get old and need their bed-pans changed by some lowly hospital WORKERS?
