Catlady - you are spot on.  Not too many people in these posts "get it" - it's always all about ME! ME! ME!
We are retired in this household and have just enough money to pay the bills.  Then it's PB&J until the next check comes.  But!  We are not victims, and we are enjoying what we have (this IS America, the last time I checked) - Bottom line is, I have faith in President Obama.  Just gotta stand in line a little bit longer.
