The speed of the shadows that follow

It's amazing how we each live our lives, soaking in the wine that splashes around in our aching bodies.We drink more when were past the limit. Dragging the carcas around behind us, as each day it grows and develops more into our own monster. We crawl away when we should be fighting it. We never realize how beautiful the sunset really is, because we dont pay that much attention to it. Sometimes we speak softly, when we should have screamed.
Soon were swallowed in our own shadows, because they catch up.

trimming the waistline of medicaid and welfare

I dont want to hurt anyones feelings, well maybe a few, but the reality of our medicaid and welfare system has went from temporarily assisting those that cant help themselves to longterm assistance for those that just want to sit on the couch and eat twinkies all day long.
Im not talking about those heavy or obese people that are productive members of society. Im talking about those that eat themselves into the "Im so obese I cant fit my ass on the shitter", members of society.
If you are so obese that you become so unhealthy that you cant work and cant be productive, you shouldnt recieve government assistance that comes out of taxpayers pockets, you should recieve a treadmill, it would be cheaper.
I have more to say, but will save it for later..
