Justice for the People:

Congressman Hensarling, I thank you for inviting me to your meeting in Athens. I now know where you stand on the budget for the next few years. The disturbing facts that you put forth on the budget and growth over the next ten years were informative.

What disturbed me, was that your hard economics were blamed on the three main programs that help the old and the poor. It's not our fault that we gave our lives and our labor to make you rich. Congress has stolen from Social Security all these years. You now wish to throw us away like yesterday's news. The one thing that we still have is our right to vote.

The money wasted on the private contractors and the war in Iraq would make Social Security solvent for many years. I am very sorry that you do not see all the money lost by the taxpayers, going to special projects by many congressmen, that help no one. How much money has Congress put in the building next to the Capital, has it been finished after eight years and how many millions in overruns?

Why sould the old and poor pay?
