Gracie: Nora is your family... poor? Nora: What do you mean, Gracie? Gracie: Do you sometimes go to be hungry? Nora: Well, I guess sometimes I'm hungry... Nora: But then I fall asleep happy knowing that I have a bed.
I think it was a B.C. sequence long ago:“We were so poor we slept eight in one bed.”“You had a bed? We were so poor we slept on the floor.”“You had a floor? We were so poor we slept on the dirt.”“You had dirt? We were so poor we …” Oops, nowhere to go.
They also did the same thing in the other direction: “You had a blanket? … a roof? … stars?”
Look to the SENIORS!! I’m feeding 2+ now and I live senior low-income. PAY ATTENTION to your elders. They didn’t let you starve. When do they "get " their soc sec. Bet the last weekend is no food.
