AND there is no shame in that. You work hard all of your life and save and are careful how you spend your money and you plan and sacrifice in order to reach that level.

That doesn't mean that people that do need a free meal are bad or to be looked down on. It just means that we are no longer working and have a way to pay the bills when we are retired.

But of course that doesn't mean that there aren't a few people who would try to get anything for free.


Havana made a beautiful gesture in the Spirit of the Season. I resent those who deminish that gesture. Let's not complicate matters.
