Bristol County Daily News

So many people have reached out to me. They want to help but today I am feeling that afghans are not enough. The more I talk to people about homelessness the more upsetting it becomes. So many families are out there with their children without a place to live go to http://www.endhomelessness.org/ and you can get some numbers. I cant help but think about how much money we are spending every day to kill people in Iraq when that same money could not only house but educate and employee every homeless person in Massachusetts so that they would become independent productive people in our community. Why do spend so much time producing violence when we could be producing quality life. There is a website that tells you by town how much money your town is putting towards the war. Check it out http://costofwar.com/ As I type this the number is changing but it was about $12million. That's crazy can you imagine what $12million could do. Towns are cutting sports, busing to schools, libraries are closing, summer programs are gone yet be are spending billions to kill others. Maybe its me but I just don't get it!!!!
