Keep money here

How can the U.S. government sit back and say there will not be any Social Security after seven years and we are starting sending $35 million overseas. The war is costing $10 billion and we have all these outside finances going on to different religions. That is ridiculous.

This is to the tightwad complaining about paying for waste disposal on holidays. I was wondering do they keep the trash that they do not pick up on the holidays or do they place it on the curb on the next trash pickup day? Either way they still have to pick up the trash. I think they do a great job. I have lived in other communities where there were restrictions on how much trash and the way it was placed at the curb. I just want to commend the guys at Sonny's Solid Waste, they are doing a great job. I think they deserve more than the four paid holidays the person was complaining about.

Let us not forget, 55 million people died as a result of World War II we had 80 thousand plus frozen bodies were lying in the Ardennes Forest, Belgium, in 1944 due to the fighting and the worst winter storm in 100 years in that part of Europe. There are a few of us left to remember.

I have been watching the news about all these tidal waves hitting those other countries. I also saw those Air Force planes landing with the supplies for those people. Now those people in those countries are already griping. They said the people in the United States are not doing enough for them. I tell you any other country isn't doing anything and they say the United States isn't doing enough. That is the trouble with the rest of the world. Anytime anything happens they thing the United States should come in there and build them all new houses and give them everything instead of working for themselves. But when 9-11 came did any of those people come over here? Did they do anything for us.

I would like to thank the person who lives over by Illinois street when the big snow hit for especially for lending a extra hand out in pulling people out of the snow. And helping others when their car got too hot and the car blows up and burns their girlfriend for opening their doors and helping out. To all thank you very much.
