Why is Medicare for all the new normal? It’s gonna cost us the election.
Why can’t there be options?
I'm tired of the Uber military worship
I’m gonna be politically incorrect here. Don’t get me wrong. I do appreciate our military and our vets. I just don’t understand how some vets are so entitled. I’ll give you an example:
My daughter has put herself through college to be a speech language pathologist and teacher. She has worked hard her entire life and her first job was when she was 12.
She says that 9 out of 10 military vets who come into the restaurant where she serves to pay for her education are not satisfied with the free entre they get. They want a bar drink free too and rarely tip.
This weekend I had to run into a Home Depot. I had dropped my husband off and was going to run to the bank when I realized he forgot his wallet in the car. I saw the vet parking spot right up front and was only going to run in for a minute if even that. Albeit this is just a courtesy parking spot. Not illegal to park there. So I pulled in and was running out when an old white guy jumps out of his old white van covered in pro trump and pro America and Christian stickers.
Mind you, I’m in a hurry because I had no intention of staying in that spot. But he charges at me and gets in my face and yells, “What branch of the military did you serve in?” This caught me off guard as well as made me a little nervous. But I don’t tend to back down when confronted. I’m the type that would go down fighting. So I said, “That’s none of your god damned business.” And kept briskly walking into the entrance. The guy FOLLOWS ME. And yells, “I’m a vet and you’re NOT!” All I said was, “Good for you!” I saw my husband. Gave him his wallet and started to leave as the guy stands there mad dogging me the whole way!
Now this does nothing more than make me want to park in that spot any damned time I feel like it!
Rant over.
