Required reading
Spokane-News asked what people want for Christmas.
If you think we have a "great economy" and a "great justice system" and a "great health care system", read these. Nuff said.
Later, along the same lines, an apt bldg on East Sprague was filled with carbon monoxide, sending three people to the hospital. Why? The landlord failed to pay the electric bill for months, so Avista shut off the power. Tenants responded by using gas generators inside their apartments. Stupid, but they had no choice. If they could buy a generator, they had enough money to pay for electricity; but their money didn't count because the landlord was criminally negligent.
If you think poor people "should try harder", read this. More than nuff said.
