TAKING GROCERIES HOME IN STYLE

STANDING in line at a local Food Lion, I watched as a woman checked out in front of me. She and her child had a buggy stacked a foot higher than the sides of the grocery cart. When time came for payment, she handed the cashier a stack of food stamps.

I then paid (with cash) for some food items and left the store. Here was this same woman loading her groceries into a new car.

The liberal/socialist politicians think this redistribution of wealth somehow makes it fair. Wake up, America! We need a redistribution of work, not a redistribution of wealth! HAROLD VAUGHAN VINTON
