And hey, it seems my 'ranting' at least got you in here...

Think on that a while, eh....   ;0)

Oh and think on this too....

This evening on BBC Radio Devon it was announced that over the past few years there have been 3 Food Banks in Devon, feeding around 500 people or so. This has now increased to 8 Food Banks which are feeding.....6,000 people.

Yes...SIX THOUSAND PEOPLE!!   Shall I put *****'s around that too???

**SIX THOUSAND PEOPLE** in Devon ALONE, who are now needing to be fed by charities because they can no longer afford to feed themselves! They are getting by due to borrowing off their extended families where they can...and some cannot survive when they start a new job, because their measly benefit is stopped immediately, yet they do not get paid for FOUR weeks, so they cannot afford food...

This will get worse...then worse again and again and again.

This is no ordinary Recession, it never was. It is the collapse of the Western World as we know it, Jim...and there has NEVER been a time when a drum has been needed to be banged louder than ever before......

You have the drum....

Start The Rhythm going.......
