| I used to believe in the American dream when I | | | | make it through the day. |
| was young. I do not know what happened to | | | | How can our government really believe |
| democracy that is supposed to work for all | | | | democracy works for all people when so many |
| people in our country. I would like to ask our | | | | poor families lose their children to street gangs? |
| government "when is this democracy really going | | | | How can democracy work when people that are |
| to work for all people, instead of those who have | | | | mentally ill walk down the streets of cities where |
| the most money?" I have hoped for democracy | | | | and can not get the proper mental health care |
| to work for all our people for nearly thirty five | | | | they need? How can our government say that |
| years. Our government has talked so much about | | | | democracy works when poor children turn to |
| democracy working in our country Our | | | | gangs and drugs just to stop the feeling of |
| government has to make democracy and the | | | | hopelessness in daily life? I want to understand |
| American dream work for all people. I have | | | | how so any person can still believe that |
| watched and listen to so many elected | | | | democracy works when lower income people are |
| government leaders of over the years talk about | | | | left in a hurricane because they have no way to |
| how they are going to make democracy work | | | | get out? I want to know how democracy can |
| for all people. I have heard so many people say | | | | work for poor people when they can not even |
| they came to this country to find the American | | | | get their homes rebuilt? I do not understand why |
| dream. I have heard the very same people years | | | | lower income people are still not back in their |
| later say they are still waiting for the great | | | | homes? |
| American dream. I have heard more then ten | | | | I want to know how democracy works when |
| presidents promise that democracy will work for | | | | lower income families do not have the chance to |
| all our people. Why are so many people still | | | | see their children go to college? I want to know |
| waiting for democracy to work for all people? | | | | how democracy works when you are driving |
| I have personally seen what democracy has done | | | | down the road and some war veteran standing |
| for lower income people of this country. I would | | | | with a card board sign that asks for money to |
| like to know how many government leaders can | | | | help? I would like for our government leaders to |
| really see how democracy has not worked for so | | | | go to some these homeless areas and really see |
| many lower income people? I would like to know | | | | how some of these lower income people that |
| how many of the rich have really seen how | | | | have to sleep out side because people have no |
| democracy really has not worked for lower | | | | where to live? I have driven down poor streets in |
| income people? I would like to hear from one | | | | the city of chicago. The hopelessness and hunger |
| corporation that has seen how democracy has | | | | that these people feel is heart breaking to see. I |
| not worked for lower income people? I am still | | | | would like to know how democracy works when |
| wait for our medical corporations to explain to the | | | | you take away peoples hope and pride so that |
| lower income people how they have worked to | | | | they have to beg for food? |
| bring good health care to lower income people. | | | | For our government to openly say that |
| I would like to see democracy work for lower | | | | democracy works for all people is the biggest lie |
| income people. I will explain how democracy has | | | | that I have ever heard. How can democracy |
| not worked for so many lower income people. I | | | | work for people who feel the hunger and |
| hope that I will find people that will listen and | | | | hopelessness of daily life? How can democracy |
| realize that for democracy to work here and in | | | | work when lower income people lose jobs |
| other countries it must also work for all people. | | | | because companies that say they support |
| How many of our troops are from lower income | | | | democracy and then take away jobs that lower |
| families? I believe that if our lower income families | | | | income work by having all our basic products |
| can send their children to die fighting for | | | | made in china? I have listen to our government |
| democracy.These lower income families should | | | | telling people that democracy works for all people. |
| have democracy work for them. | | | | I have watched the hopelessness of lower |
| How can democracy work for lower income | | | | income families that see their children end up |
| families that have to watch their children die or | | | | taking drugs or joining gangs. I have seen so |
| join street gangs? How can democracy work | | | | many lower income families lose their children to |
| when these children are getting gunned down in | | | | death and jail because they have no chance a |
| drive by shootings? How can democracy work | | | | better life. |
| when a mother has to work as a hooker just to | | | | I hope that democracy will come for all people so |
| feed her children? How can democracy work | | | | that lower income children will stop going to jail. |
| when some child dies because they can not get | | | | Democracy has to work for all people. I believe |
| the proper medical care? How can democracy | | | | this will bring and end to the billions of dollars that |
| work when a elderly person has to live in a dump | | | | our country spends to build and keep up so many |
| after working their entire life? | | | | prisons. Democracy for all people would bring back |
| How can democracy work when a family has to | | | | hope for the many lower income families that |
| go to the morgue to see their child that has been | | | | need to have hope given back to them. |
| shot because of not joining a street gang? How | | | | Democracy for all people would make good |
| can democracy work when some child is crying | | | | medical care available for all people. Democracy |
| from hunger and the mother can not afford the | | | | for all people would give children a chance to have |
| proper food for her baby? I have seen and heard | | | | education and a chance to go to college. |
| the cries of the forgotten lower income people in | | | | I believe that our government has to step up and |
| our country. I have driven through all the really | | | | realize that for democracy to really work it has |
| poor parts of cities where families can not even | | | | to work for all people not just select people. I |
| hope for a future. How many families fight just to | | | | believe that with democracy for all people would |
| keep their children alive going to school? How can | | | | bring and end to building so many jails that money |
| democracy work when these people get sick and | | | | could be used to start building schools . I believe |
| can not afford go to the hospital? I have heard | | | | that our government has to give hope for the |
| doctors tell patients not to worry about what is | | | | American dream back to all those people that |
| wrong when they get sick because they do not | | | | have lost hope. I believe that doing all this will give |
| have the money or insurance to pay for hospital | | | | lower income families hope for the future of their |
| care. I would like for a government leader to go | | | | children. No parent should feel the hopelessness |
| to these poor areas in these cities just to get and | | | | for the future of any child. |
| idea of the daily pain and hopelessness these | | | | As always I write with respect. |
| families feel. Families that have fight just try to | | | | |
