The mere fact that my people are jumping for joy for a basic life necessity brings an overwhelming feeling of sadness to my heart. I’m incredibly happy for them, but why did this take so long?

I know what you mean. You see them so overjoyed. You're happy for them and the same sad. It shouldn't take 114 days to get power

This is trumps america..omg

$21 billion in aid per year, mayor's salary $4.5, unsustainable pension system, and no accountability.

Colonial relationship w/ US that does not permit development of self-sustaining industries. As a market, profits are repatriated to US. There are 78 mayors:$68k a year. Yes, they've made politics a business but isn't that what's happening in the US w/ Trump right now?

Do they have the supplies they need? I always liked starting with nice new school supplies. Maybe some of the companies that sell the supplies could help.
-
Maybe you could help. Why do lefties always want somebody else to help? Oh, I see, your duty as a lefty, raise awareness so somebody else can do the work and pay the bill, has been fulfilled.
-
In all honesty I'm shocked to see anything but a "lefty" proposing such an idea. It's always been the lefties, the bleeding hearts, who extend ourselves towards the needs of others. The cry from the other side has repeatedly been, "I got mine, you get yours". Know your history.
-
No, you extend the rest of us.
-
And you can't afford to help, don't want to, or don't care? What's ypur point? Shouldn't we all be helping, when a disaster strikes? And they are US citizens. It's not the dreaded Foreign Aid so many selfish people detest.
-
In its purest sense it is the "foreign aid". In our society, among some, if you are not white, straight and god-fearing, you are a foreigner, citizen or otherwise. We have become so detached from the original tenets of our founders, it's a travesty.
-
Only the purest sense of bigotry. This way of thinking exists for sure, but should NEVER be normalized.
-
Go ahead, say what you want because you’ve gotten to the point that what you want, hope or think has become inseparable from fact.

They can mop up their tears of joy with those extra special papers towels.
