Amen.
I'm from Bristol, IN. of Elkhart County Indiana, where it has been devestated ever since the last time gas prices exploded and shut down the RV and mobile home industry, which never recovered and may never ever again, and with gas prices nearing $4.00, expected to hit $5.00, and foreign crude at $100 per barrel and rumors are flying that it may hit $200 per barrel, along with the president's executive order that bans drilling and exploration in the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic coast, and congressional bills signed into law by our current president that blocks exploration for oil in ANWAR as well as shale exploration and drilling in Colorado and the rest of the continental USA...Elkhart County, IN. may never ever come back.
Middlebury, IN. in Elkhart County has a food pantry somewhere there that made the local paper because it got into trouble for either selling or giving away meats, luncheon type meats without a permit. They either sold or gave away non-perishables which was ok apparently, but when they began with the luncheon meats without having purchased the necessary permit from the county, generating county revenue, well, that was going too far. And the customers are those that can't afford the cheaper prices of even Walmart, and when that happens, one is down and out as far as luck goes. The customers of this food pantry are people that have lost their jobs through no fault of their own, who have been unemployed for an extended period of time, losing their homes, lost their homes, breaking up families, ruining families lives forever.
For the record, I am as conservative as they come, but I can also understand the plight of many, and as I pointed out below, Senate Bill S510 that is going to make it a crime, A FEDERAL CRIME, to so much as give away a piece of fruit or vegetable from one's orchard or garden to anyone including family members, neighbors, homeless, and everyone else, and no homeless or jobless persons created that bill, but I can name a whole lot of nitwits from Washington DC whom did.
