re: #424 000G

I really like how many of them have messages like this:

I know what govt cheese tastes like.

I also know what it means to have to shop at a thrift store. (when this wasn’t cool.)

Or walk five miles to school.

Or put off dental work or the doctor.

Or have to ride your bike to the grocery because the family car got repo’ed.

I know what it’s like to work really, really hard while others party, travel, and go out.

And while I have worked my ass off and now I make a six figure income and my three kids barely know what “need” really means, and while I know I’m in the 1% because of a lot of things I did and choices I specifically made, I know most of my success is not just mine.

It’s yours too. You deserve dignity and justice.

The pursuit of happiness is community.

I am the 1 percent, I stand with the 99 percent.

Of personal success leading to generosity, and understanding of how communal any enterprise is.

There are some that seem a little abject, but a lot of good stuff.
