We all should help others instead of hording huge lumps of cash. However, it is very difficult to know who is really down on their luck and who has simply found an easy way to make a cash income. Giving someone cash money is about the worst way you can actually help most of them. There was an investigation done not so many years ago that proved that some of the cardboard holders (will work for money) that we feed cash to at intersections live better than we do. They are willing to look like they slept under a bridge and have nothing just to get our easy cash. Besides, cash does not have to be reported, they pay no income tax, so us tax payers create a double jeopardy. Giving is great, but we have been "giving" to third world countries for longer than I have been alive and it does not work. I think we should come up with a new plan. People need to always be able to associate work or good deeds with making money. Otherwise they develop an attitude that we "owe" them cash just because they are there. It is part of what is killing our government and economy. We have generations that have been taught that they make more money by not working, by having babies and not getting married, etc. Much of the money we give to the begging preachers that show videos of those helpless children are putting it in their own pockets to keep up their very lavish lifestyles. What a waste! None of us can really "save the world", so I choose to help those around me that I know need it and appreciate it. If I discover someone that feels they are "entitled" to my generosity, they get cut off. Test the system, try offering one of the beggers a real job to earn money and they will walk away.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
