Lessee...My mom and five sibs were dumped in 1960; mom was on welfare and working when possible; dad, who bacame a millionaire gave her a total of $160 for the following 19 years; I had no laces for my shoes...ate government cheese...lived in a tenement....went to public schools...and lived in a depressed mill town.

My experiences left me decidedly right. To start with, dad dumped us...cuz he could. As large a sphincter as he was..I doubt he's have let us starve and die. Law of unintended consequences.

Didn’t for me.

I was born to a dirt poor family in the hills of Washington State.

I lived as a street rat in Berkeley during the 60s. I spent time in juvenile halls, children’s shelters, a couple of low income foster homes and a two or three years back with my still dysfunctional and low income family before joining the Navy -- and nowhere, at no time, was I ever tempted by the idiocy of the left.

I’m not the greatest success now, never will be a millionaire, but what I have I earned and bought with hard cash and work. That’s the way it should be.
