Like a bad penny I am back again. Complete with the proverbial punchbowl.
Don't you love all these rumble seat love affairs between the politicians and the corporations?
Example: Go to China Mart to try and get in on the cheap glasses program.
I say, "I want a pair of those cheap glasses you advertised.
They say, "Your year limit has run out and you need to spend over 50 bucks for a new eye exam."
I say, "But I had one last year."
They say, "You are 2 months out of date to use that eye exam result."
I say, "I don't care just give me a pair of glasses, I cant afford an eye exam."
They say, "We can't do that it's against the law."
I say, "What law? Just give me the glasses."
They say, "The state law says no."
I say, "You mean the optometrist lobby says I can't have glasses without a 50 dollar exam pay off?"
I say, "This is not a life-threatening problem just a wallet-threatening problem."
They shrug their shoulders and say, "I'm sorry."
If you have been around a while you know what "I am sorry" really means. I would tell you but the editor would get upset.
Your politicians continually screw us all in little ways and big ways. Why don't you check out your "ha ha" representatives to see which corporations they really represent?
Let's start with Cupy Doll Souder, the guy that banned me from his "public" Republican meeting. I even pressed my best bib overalls and had them dry cleaned.
