Wondering Thoughts

     I dont like being watched...let alone having the feeling that I am constantly being watched by "big brother" if you permit me to say.  The last I checked,  I was not in jail, prison, a half way house, or a psych ward.        

     The last I checked I was a free individual who pays taxes, goes to work so she can pay taxes and other bills and personal needs, and is told at least once every week that she should go back to school and make sure she stays in church.

     But how long ago was it that I checked my freedom?  Come to think of it now the things I just said doesn't really seem like I am free.  Being told and forced to go to work to pay taxes...taxes on things that sometimes doesn't always concern me because I rarely see good results from them. 

     I know the money is suppose to go for things in the government like fixing streets, building parks for the kids in the local community,  funds for cures like Aids and cancer.   But why do I get the feeling that its not happening as much as it really should?...
