A Plea...


To all the Republicans that are in a state of disappointment today, please think about this.
Our new leader does not seek to take your money and give it to the guy who doesn't have a job and isn't looking for one, although, inevitably that will happen in some cases. He does not wish to make everyone of the same stature. He wishes to help reward the people that are the gears of your country. The people that wake up everyday to make the world you live in the way it was yesterday or maybe better. These are the people that come together to serve you. We are all served by one another. The people we are talking about are the people that serve you your coffee in the morning, work security in your office buildings to keep you safe, the people that work at the counter of your banks diligently taking your money and moving it into some safe place, the people that create your culture, the people that teach your children, beautify your world, write the articles that you read and the people that work in the background of your life so that you have less to worry about.

Tell me why these people that often have two, three, and four jobs deserve less. How can you say that the value of their work is less, that they are not worthy of the opportunities that you are, that when they are sick they don't deserve to have someone take care of them?

As as a nation, as a united country, as a place where we can be proud to be citizens and proud to don the American flag, we have to be aware of each other's worth.

Think really hard about this...
We all contribute to making this country what it is.
Can you say that the head of any big corporation deserves to have more opportunity and have a better life than the person that teaches your children to read?
