Hi, Desiree. I liked your recent article on how it feels to be a homeless cancer patient. There you are in Holland, and I am in New York and I think, "My God, the politicians are all the same! It leads me to a quote by Cicero in 43BC. "The poor work to work; The rich exploit the poor; The soldier protects both; The taxpayer pays for all three; The banker robs all four; The lawyer misleads all five; The doctor bills all six; The goons scare all seven, and lastly, The politicians live happily on account of all eight." Now, as we used to say in the neighborhood in which I grew up: "Ain't dat duh troot!" Indeed! Don't you think? Good article. Regards
