An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Over lunch, I met this 73 year old uncle who was taking his economic rice ( $2.80 ).
I asked him where he is working ( he was wearing a uniform). He told me he works as a sweeper. I asked him how much is he getting. He told me he is very grateful to our government. If I sweep on block , I am paid $350 a month. If I sweep two blocks, I get $700 a month. He told me he is very happy as he does not need any allowance from his two children who have their own families.
I asked him whether he is happy. He nodded his head and said: " Luckily this kind government allows me to work. I am very grateful..."
Who says we have a cold hearted government. 73 years old man working happily and earning an income sufficient for himself. Hallelujah!!!
