Do You Go Out Of Your Way To Shop At WalMart

It is always nice to have more than one to choose from. Even when one is closer it gives you pride to know that there is another one close you can go too if you need too as well.

Have you thought about filling your prescriptions by mail? Some insurances offer that option, and let you get three months at a time. I am glad your hubby is going back to work. That is good news.

Gerty, thanks! I'm so very happy that he's going to be working full-time again. He'll also be getting a different insurance that what he had and what we kept on me because of my problems. We'll be getting BC/BS, so I'll definitely be looking into that mail thing. I don't know why I haven't done it sooner! With so many meds that I take on an ongoing basis, it sure is worth looking into! Thanks so much for the reminder!!! Muscles, it makes me sick, too, to realize that us natural born Americans can't get some jobs simply because we are doing what we've done all our lives... speak English! I believe that's why my youngest son is having trouble finding work right now, one reason anyway. My oldest son works at WalMart and he sees Mexicans getting jobs there left and right, while my son, born right here in America, can't get a job there. He applied first back in October and, since than, many Mexicans have been hired by WalMart. My other son has the inside scoop on when jobs will be opening and my youngest son always reapplies right away, but still the Mexicans get the jobs. I'm thinking maybe WE all ought to move to Mexico, since it MUST be practically empty by now! I heard a joke once, which really isn't funny when you think about it... "A survey was taken to find out how many Mexicans want to come to the United States. The survey found that 50% of all Mexicans want to come to America.... The other 50% are already here!" Our government MUST put a temporary freeze on granting work visas for foreigners, at least until every American who wants to work, IS working. It's not fair and, I believe, it should be a crime that our government continues to allow foreigners to come here, get jobs and send most of the money they make back to relatives in their native countries. I don't mind anyone coming to our country to find work when there IS work over and above what Americans have. But, when each and every new job opening has at least 400 applications, that tells me that something MUST be done for American citizens first! What's that thing in the Bible, "Remove the log from your own eye so you can see to remove it from your neighbor's eye"... something like that. Even though a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders, and those of my husband's, I still get angry every time I see or hear the horror stories from American citizens who have lost their jobs because of the recession, while Mexicans (among other foreigners) are getting jobs without any intention of becoming American citizens. Our Constitution begins with "WE the people..." Whatever happened to that? It seems the people of our country have no say whatsoever. Grrrr! Sorry, Tina, I didn't mean to turn this into a political thread. It's just that part of our economic downfall is due to our government continuing to grant work visas while American citizens are losing their homes, their jobs and their dignity and WalMart is one of the biggest promoters of this injustice.
