I am a creative genius.
Or so I think... Well at the very least, I am hoping I'm starting to learn my craft better.
I came up with a sweettt ad today. I would put it on here, but the idea is too good to share.
It's for "Eco-friendly" appliances.
Also, my letter to the editor got printed today. I liked it, and am going to post it here:
In response to Dee Frazier’s newest letter: First of all, I empathize with your situation and your frustration is not without merit, but you again set yourself up for criticism.
I understand that you’re not saying all Social Security beneficiaries are “spending days drinking in bars and smoking pot,” but in trying to defend your argument about CHIPs, you only discredit yourself again by attacking Social Security disability recipients.
Being a college student, I understand the frustration and the unfairness of government programs. I am not able to receive any government financial aid although my family has two children in college. Like your assertion about the SS disability recipients, I know college students who receive substantial amounts of financial aid who don’t deserve it — but harshly characterizing that small ratio of recipients, as “students who sleep all day and party all night” doesn’t change who receives aid.
Being cynical will not change the system. It won't provide you or others in need with health care. If you don't do your part in fighting for change, things will always stay the same.
It’s absolutely fair to say that government systems are flawed. Unfortunately yes, some people who don’t deserve benefits get them, and upstanding people that need assistance are left behind. But after creating controversy by chastising one group, taking another jab at a small percentage of disability beneficiaries only makes your opinions seem less credible and unfortunately shows what keeps government systems from changing.
