I couldn’t attend the meeting, so I’ve spent the past few evenings reading all about it on the internet. Here is what I have found so far:

Warren, thank you for trying to help bail out the home morgage shortage. I read about it in the paper at my part time job over at City of Hope in Duarte, Ca. We are a country of possibilities, as a middle class bottom of the bucket. Middle class is the new low class. Taxed and charged past our means, maybe living past the cost of dreams. Thank you for being concerned about the not so well read well breed class. Thank you for being grounded economically into the present. If you know how a 50’s woman can get educated for nursing school please share. Thank you for my 3 horses, llama, dogs and cats and peacocks.
