The lighting is terrible as I just had to snap off a bunch of pics at once b/c the traffic signal was changing. It's a small home made neon sign using poster board.
"Cash for Diabetic Testing Strips!"
Their telephone number is a bit blocked by the grass. Saved me the hassle of blacking it out. I was turning onto the main road in the area. You can drive for miles around and it's all suburbia. If I turned around right there and headed back a block all you would see is 1/4 acre to 1/2 acre plots of land w/ nothing but 3 - 5 bedroom family homes.
It's just me and my wife and we pay out the ass for healthcare. A guy at my last job had to turn down his raise b/c it landed him in the next income bracket and insurance would have cost him around $1,400 something a month for his family of four. Just imagine his situation though. He no longer has any chance of upward mobility at his current job b/c he wouldn't be able to pay his bills. The yearly raises there aren't enough for him to take them until something is done about Obamacare. Prior to Obamacare his family's health insurance was around $600 he told me and he had just as many kids back then.
It's destroying the middle class that pays the bill for it. I know how much our single part time receptionist makes a year. Small company. At 28 she's paying $52 a month and still living at home for the past 5 years.
Take a good long look around the country.

Now we've got another Political hack, Kamala Harris that wants to introduce the "Rent Relief Act".

Get ready to be punished w/ higher taxes for having a mortgage. It's gotta come from somewhere... Liberals never dare actually tax the rich at the rates they claim they would b/c lets face it. The donations would stop rolling in and a wealthy person w/ options isn't going to just let you rape him w/ taxes. He'll just move to a different more tax friendly country and open some businesses there.
It's simple math and this shit just isn't working. Screw you John McCain. If you didn't have such a dick up your ass b/c the president doesn't like you we'd be better off today. Instead you went back on your word to repeal... threw your constituents under the bus... and for what? All b/c we have a President that said a mean thing to you and wouldn't bend over backwards to kiss the ring and suck your dick like every other Republicunt in Congress.
Only political comment I'll be making today. That sign shit just really bummed me out and got me thinking.
