just a quick note to say the state has denied me any portion of the princely $136.00 they were willing to let me have because my $95.09 gross for the past week was deemed "excess earnings"...well...certainly in "excess" of the world bank's $1.90/day poverty line...but nowhere near the amount needed for a "living wage" in this county by the MIT living wage calculator...again, being denied is no massive loss for me...i am solvent...the point is there are others doubtlessly being denied who will find it a hardship that drives them deeper into debt...which is the point of the whole political process...the upward extraction continues and politicians of all parties and ideologies continue to be unreconstructed slime...enjoy the holiday.
