Interesting write. Life is great fantastic incredible and at times unbelievable. Understanding Who we are what we are is only the beginning. We are born with abilities only a few understand We are fortunate beyond belief. We can have anything we want in life. All we have to do is ask the Universe. The greatest gift from the universe is wisdom and knowledge and understanding

I have heard it said that taxes dollar are deverted from the middle class to the poor then back to rich by way of economic aid like health care, food stamps, lawyers, the criminal justice system. What do you think of this? I like your ideas and the way presented don't necessarily agree on all points. Thanks for the comments on mine. Sara

Very interesting write, Moses. Being without TV service (Won't cut down trees) I pick and choose the news I read on the Internet. I've skipped the health care frenzy. My question is a percentage of WHAT? The Hospital Bill OR the person's income? Take sales tax. Every state charges a percentage of the purchase. For the poor that sales tax when evaluated according income level shows the poor pay a greater percent of their income on sales tax than those in higher brackets. Fair?Good poem. Dane

Hi John, It does my heart good to know that others too are writing about this here on the soup. This is a strong powerful write! There are those outside of soup that I know of who read our poetry for inspiration and to see where the mindset of folks are. I thank you for writing this, smile. I pray the universal health care bill will pass for those who need it, need it just to survive. Love Light Patty
