Dena hit a nail on the head with this one.
We need to develop Altruism more then Alturas.
I lost a lot of time from my kids.Me working two and even three jobs and my 
wife one ...to be somewhat comfortable during the Reagan and Bush years.
All the while of coarse politics got ignored too.
But no more,It's not worth it and I don't want people to have to live that 
way.
Grandad bought his house ,always had a car that was never more than a couple 
of years old and a lake front spot at Coeur d'Alene. He did  social work for 
the City on his own time. All while on the wages of a single wage earner as 
a printer.

I raise Dena's post way up high folks.
  Dave
