The book of programs

Hello!


Surprise!


Today the person that brought me my food from Meals on Wheels also left me a book that opened my eyes to a whole bunch of new government programs that I haven't applied for, apparently they are for retirees or low income families (bingo!).


So I opened the book and I fell on a government program that helps people with their rent! Hello? I always thought that that was for people who were really in the dumps, I'm talking like real poor, but after reading the description I called and they told me to call back during summer because last year's taxes showed that I was making too much money for the program, but that next year it would seem that I would be eligible for this one. If you are over 55 then you are a shoo-in but if you're not you have to prove that your earnings are less than a certain amount, I think is $22K this year, don't trust me on this one. So I talked some more with the girl and she told me that it looks like I would be eligible for next year but for the current year my earnings of 2009 had been exorbitant, I'm talking obscene amounts of money here, too much to talk about... Really ashame of it, I made just over... Drumroll... $24K and the limit so that I could join this program was $23K


But this is not what I wanted to talk to you about, I want to talk to you about the whole conspiracy going on here! I mean, do I have to be 55 for a special police to come and give me this book? I immediately called my mother but she denied the whole thing, saying that there wasn't such a book. So my new conspiracy theory here is that older folks know about this but they don't want the younger crowd to know about. They keep these programs secret for them, I think my Meals on Wheels girl will get fired for this one and I will probably get muzzled somehow or another...


Take care people
