To Whom it may concern:
Well it should concern everyone! Most of Americans are having a horrible time making ends meet. Usually the ends don't meet at all. And now it's Christmas, everyone I know, give or take a few people, can't even afford one present for one child. This is awful! Call "Toys for Tots" right? NOT! I have told people the same thing. But unless you know how the system works, you are probably out of luck there too. You have to sign up way early. And how are we supposed to know that the car will break down or someone will have to go to the hospital and all the Christmas money will be gone. I am not down on Toys for Tots, it is a great organization, and they do a wonderful job. There is just not enough to go around. Many people have gone from making $50,000 to $100,000 a year to next to nothing. Or they have no health insurance, and medical bills are eating away at their rent and utility payments. I am writing to let you know, that you can see some of these stories at www.aidpage.com , Americans need help! Welfare isn't cutting it! Instead of Helping Americans, our (Bush)government is bailing out huge corporations, who blow their money on massages and expensive retreats, not to mention $100,000 bonus'. I have never seen $100,000 in my life! I love America, it is the home of the free, the best country in the world, but things are going down hill fast , and if our elected officials don't do something quick, things are going to be very bad. I hate to imagine. Just one more thing, you might find this trivial, but I don't, so here it is, there's not much I wouldn't do for a Pizza right now. How long has it been since you had one, for me it's been a really long time, frozen pizza doesn't count. I bet everyone on Aidpage would love one, if you would like to donate to this organization I am dubbing "Pizza for my Peeps" please send me a private message, and I will tell you where to send it. Thanks for reading.
Sincerely, a disillusioned American
I am going to see if I can find Barak Obama's email. I doubt he'll see it, but maybe someone will. Perhaps I can send a copy to my local news network. I incourage everyone to do the same. Write your own letter or borrow mine. It doesn't matter, just write. Let our Voices be heard!
Update: I just went to Obama's site, and it's still in the campaign phase, and the first page you get is THEM asking for money.
