Losing With Grace

Losing with Grace..... Baseball players know how to play their game and move on. When they lose, they lose. They don't talk of collusion, or who stole bases and worse.. To call in the Fed to play the game of Farcical Illusions, They move on to the next game. It is not a federal crime. The players need  to go to DC and explain this plain fact to   some of our elected dummies. To the overpaid ,selfish snobs of this country. I do mean only those sitting on their arses for 40 years. No, sorry, we all need to ask God, A better question. Is it OK to steal from men who work, that their well earned money must go to the poor. America is far from third world nation, We don't need a Robin Hood to run this country. America will not be a socialist nation. Nor do we need a panel of angry fools, To paint Americans as Foolish ghouls. Take a poor person into your house, why don't you? Offer them your soap, your towels and the use of your food, money and home. To me, that's real Christianity. In CA, people live on the streets on purpose, it's far more money for them that way. Plus welfare, Snap cards and free health care, too. And selling dope behind McDonald's too. Poor?? My rear! Not to mention the monies collected, on which no taxes will they pay. People know how to play the poor game here, remarkably, too well. It's called, "Beating the system." In the USA today there are more jobs than people. Yet, people choose to live in tents, it's cheap and easier than work. Let the other Americans, go make  money ~ the jerks! The poor here do know it's sheer honey. In my city, there's a homeless man on a horse. Any rational being can figure out what it costs to feed a horse. One can't be poor and provide adequate health care,for an animal and himself  I feel sorry for that horse living outside. His master is not sick nor old nor poor. And I don't live in a crumbling town in a third world nation. Just people living on chosen, victim hood, Eternal, extended....juvenile vacations. Panagiota Romios April 23,2019 1:45pm PST

Missionaries visited our Sunday school saying that felt poor here yet were deemed rich in the nation they served. Perspective, right?! My grandpa walked across New York state to look for a job...yes, walked!
