Access This!

I just left the Westbrook Market after scrounging up money to buy milk, eggs, and a can of Chicken Noodle Soup. The kid in front of me, a rather tall one, in his late twenties, had an Apple Strudel and two Milky Way Bars on the counter. The girl at the register asked: "Is that all"? He nodded and then whipped out his Access Card, you know, the one that equates to Food Stamps? Both myself and the guy behind me rolled our eyes, not believing what we just saw. Ok, some may say your jealous Ward. Yep, maybe I am. You see, I work for a living, to rent a home, to put food on our table, and maybe, just maybe, buy a few Christmas presents for our Children & Grandchildren. So to see this BUM in my book, (He was as healthy as an ox and drove away in a nice Dodge Charger), buy junk food is beyond belief. He most likely has free Healthcare, whereas I just lost mine due to non payment of my Premiums. I am very ill here with a nasty flu compounded by COPD.

 Rant Over.
