Wow! A right winger that uses a governement agency and asks for more money for it. I’m flaberghasted. I lean to the left myself. I’m always amazed at how certain people like gays blacks hspanics etc are conservative about everything else but extremely liberal about their own people. Hispanics which is my culture is real liberal on immigration but hate gays and women who have abortions and gay republicans tend to be antibig government for the poor. I’ve always found that hypocritical because of that old poem about how there was no one left to say anything. I especially hit my cuban heritage especially hard because we tend to think of ourselves as superiior to other hispanics which is wrong. I have ADHD and it effects me badly but I also have to think about the hispanic part of me. The part of me that is pro-gay civil liberties because I saw my mother suffer the pain of being a gay woman. I have to also think about the working class part of me and the part of me that currently lives on disability because of a terrible meltdown I had some years back and am trying to get back in the saddle. I am all these things which is why I lean left. each group wants to focus on its own troubles and neglect everything else. I find that terrible because we’re all in the same boat. each group needs to have an understanding of the others needs. That is why I support the occupy movement.
