A Tolstoy Quote For Our Election Day

"Government is an association of men who do violence to the rest of us".  I hope this isn't the case with whoever gets in tonight.  Physical violence isn't the only kind of of violence that Government can impose on us.  Poverty, hunger and lack of health care has been the violence that I have witnessed most often in the past terms of Government.  As A 70 Something Woman I want enough to not worry about tomorrrow or next month, I also want to know that my children will have enough when they have finished their working time.  And for my grandchildren I want opportunity, the opportunity for them to rasie their children, feed them well and be able to educate them.  Thats not a lot to ask from someone who spent more than 50 of her 70 something years working and paying for the Government that we have had.
