Tried to get off of work today--sore back and neck are no good at all when you're looking at a 12 hour Saturday night shift at St.D's. No luck--this is a business, not a fraternity. Maybe it's because I'm in pain and in a sour mood, but I'm letting the wellfare crap really get to me. Two people have come in from the local Indian casino (a monopoly awarded on the basis of race, by the way) with chest pain. Neither has health insurance. How do you have money to gamble if you can't pay for your health insurance? Answer: I pay for it. Me and all the responsible tax payers of California get taxed to pay for the healthcare of these people who have decided gambling is a higher priority. Crazy. From my observations the following is a rough list of the top things people on wellfare spend money on instead of health insurance: 1)Cell phones--usually one for mom and one for dad and one for sister, but the baby daughter lives off of wellfare. 2)Cigarettes. 3)Tattoos 4)Motorcycles 5)Alcohol 6)Etc....aud infinitum Back to work U-561
