Poverty in the county I'm from

[stormkeeper_lovedoris]

I saw this news video story, about poverty in the county that I grew up in. Poverty bothers me whether it's suburban or urban, whether it's where I'm from or on the other side of the world. This video did particularly move me though, I guess because the people in it who shared their stories never expected to need a food pantry. Here's the link. It's 9 minutes long.

I always have a ton of coins in my car...I usually dish them out to the people begging on the corner...lol. I am thinking about taking that up because I still haven't found a job and my bank account is in the dwindling stage. But once the VA benefits start coming in, I'll be fine until I find a job...
