Went to Taco Bell today and they are offering 50% for all medical employees.

First time in my life I regretted not becoming a doctor.

how are they risking their lives. I live right next to two members, and they don't do shite.

with barely any gratitude
the military is a career. they get paid. that should be all the gratitude they need. However, I fully understand they've been brainwashed into thinking they need everyone to bow down in gratitude every time a soldier passes by

What about the Grocery Store stockers and Truckers? They are the real heroes we never knew were heroes until these challenging and trying times.

Now, if they were drafted and forced into combat under the threat of violence, I feel for them. But that hasn't happened in 50 years.

Yea, because the anti-Kaepernick group didn't tirelessly praise everybody in a military uniform for a over a year. Fake as it may have been...

Yea, because the anti- Kaepernick crowed didn't praise the military 24/7 for over a year. As fake as it may have been, nonetheless.

Not really.

Those at Pearl Harber and Dutch Harbor, yes. They were defending American soil. It hasn't occurred since.

This.

My assumption, and it’s only assumption, is that it’s the oil and gas industry crowd. It sucks to be you right now and I feel bad. I know two people who are jobless right now. But the venom spewed at people like myself for being lucky enough AT THE MOMENT to be in healthcare and have a secure job is stupid. Why begrudge another’s good fortune.
