Reporting that American health care is horrible

and we should all be ashamed. We are killing people like me and doing it quite easily and happily and without remorse. I say good-bye to blogit and hope that others have better health care than I have had in their futures......see you in the shadows. Sign in to see full entry.

When okayed for free medical care, it doesn't always mean that.

The letter said, start date 6-10-2010 and I received it on the 8-25-2010. they decided to make it today's date as start date when I went to register it at the poor people's clinic which I go to when desperate. Why? No one knew, there was nothing I could do. No one told me to go register the event... Sign in to see full entry.

Few are doing what is in the best interest of my nation and I am sad.

We are owned by China, throwing money into the Iraqi and Afghani toilets and flushing it away with no one knowing how much or which sewer it is entering. Global warming is destroying nations and so far, so far, we have not had the rainifall nor flooding which will once again destroy our national... Sign in to see full entry.

Being online a few hours a day, I have seen facebook take over,

Twitter grow, email evolve and newsletters become more easily formed and delivered. Most of what everyone I KNOW does is a total waste of planetary time. The TOOL that a computer once was, is now just a huge iPhone. I do get more personally directed news as my friends of a feather FB post it on my... Sign in to see full entry.

Grandma is embedded in Arizona and sleepless in Tucson

What a dumb and dumber state I live in. What a sad and sadder story this becomes as each day passes. Hate, which is growing around the country, is solidifying here and dripping off of many of our citizens, vomiting out of their mouths. First SB 1070, then McCain the Weathervane's false advertising... Sign in to see full entry.

I was rereading some of Gomedome's earthy writing, and wanting to

Grandma got her first Social Security retirement check. Thanks, America.

I will not spend it all in one place, I assure you, though it's small enough to spend at the gas station. Sign in to see full entry.

Charter schools are so full of possiblilities and so far off the mark,

sometimes, but not always. Guess it depends upon the people who run them. I can't believe that I was hired to teach art and yet, with a real art room, with water and shelving and cupboards and supplies, I think that I could soar. Sigh. I work in the teacher's break room where there is water. There... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

I wondered if anyone was reporting from the frontlines of American Society, embedded with the poverty stricken and reporting on what happens each day when you live in the greatest country on earth and earn enough to survive and not much else. I wondered if anyone was explaining America to others and thought that, since I was already embedded in this ongoing cultural experiment, I might tell what it's like.
