Bummed

So, my wife has been talking to her ex-husband about our situation. We probably wouldn't be in this situation if he wouldn't have skipped his child support payments for 4 months. And it's always the same story, You guys aren't my responsibility.

He,s right. We aren't his responsibility, but our two oldest kids are his and we have raised them for the last 16 years without his BS. He only pays his support when he feels like it and wonders why the hell me and my wife dont "get off our ass".

The stupid a**hole knows I've had one back surgery, its not like i can just jump and run out the door and go build houses like i used to. And my wife is battling fibromyalgia which is a whole another world of problems. Great, what a pair we are.

We both used to be able to make really good money until our health went to hell. And because we were always there for all our kids and paid all our bills without the ex's help he wonders why we don't have any savings and we're having such a hard time.

Typical Republican thinking. If I steal from them (After all, every time he doesn't pay his support, we have to take up the slack - he's pretty much stealing isn't he) they will just have to work harder so I can steal from them some more.

Don't get me wrong here please. I love all 4 of my kids - the oldest two, even though they aren't really from my sperm; have been with me since before they were old enough to ever know their real father (sperm donor) anyway, so they are pretty much mine because I paid all their bills and they have all my values anyway. Thank God for that, or there would be two more "little republicans" running around thinking that it's ok to steal from the poor and give to the rich.

How's this for weird, I'm two seconds from being homeless and I'm ranting about politics. I don't get how the Democrats can do everything in their power to help the poor and the economy sky rockets and we have a surplus, then you look at republicans doing everything in their power to end any and all programs for the less fortunate and they wonder why the economy goes to shit.

Let's think about it for a minute - If you steal all the money from the poor people who far outnumber the rich, It's no wonder all the businesses are taking a hit. All the poor now have even less money than they did before. It takes everything they have to pay the bills, let alone do extra luxury shopping to make their miserable lives a little more enjoyable.

So we end up with a whole country full of people, who even the smallest of problems could be detrimental to their existance. OK, well I can b**** about it all I want but let's face it, until I raise $100k to run for president so I can fix the worlds problems I'll have to settle for whatever else you have.

I still need to raise some for my rent, until I'm done battling to get my disability anyway. So if there are any able people who believe that a carpenter and his family shouldn't go homeless just because they did their best. Send me a donation.

Thanks
