95. Its strange but for the average citizen they are used to seeing the haves have it all,
what it boils down to is that a few in this country, the have nots are fighting the only ones they can get close to, and I have no doubt some see you as one who has regardless of how you got what you have and as you are not a star, a celebrity, a television personality you become their target simply because your easier to access, your easier to get angry at and your easier to shower that anger on..

we have become a country of people who have lost the ability to realize what is more important....too many have become lost in the need to have the latest tech-no toy in their home arsenal instead of trying to find a way to use your time and energies in a more personal way like perhaps donating not only your funds but your time as well in helping the less fortunate......

But then again, who has time these days?

They are winning this war and it was easier than they thought it would be....
