Can
Puerto Rico Do with Just
6 Towns and 6 City Halls?
Puerto Rico, a little island that's only 100x35 miles, with
a population of 3.5 million, give or take one or two... has
78 towns with 78 mayors, police depts., councils, hospitals,
fire depts., etc. JUST imagine the cost for an island that's
over 70+ BILLIONS in debt.
The city officials are not
working like, say... the coal mines. They're breezing
through daily chores. Welfare and Food stamps are the norm
and as the ubiquitous unemployment goes up, Boricuas and
moving to the USA, because th island can't provide payments
for their ostentational SUVs. Everybody is in need while the
officials flash $70,000 salaries, $3,000 suits and $500
shoes and ALL the ex-governors have their Secret Service
entourage of "servants". ¡Qué mamey! dice Genaro !!!
Our lives are determined by our choices. We must
then, choose wisely. Wisdom comes from knowing how to use
the information and experiences for our own good, Most
people are not wise. The Scriptures offer wisdom by giving
us advice and telling us about how fools make the same
mistakes over and over (ex: Book of Proverbs, Psalms,etc).
Folks don't want to be told what to do or how to do it. They
repeat their mistakes. I choose to give encouragement and
motivate my friends towards a better life. We all can use
that kind of friendship. Most people appreciate and respect
me. That's encouraging. Someone who's there that makes you
feel comfortable telling them your problems, listening to
you.
The world is not going to change to my liking, so I HAVE TO
LEARN TO LIVE IN IT... with all the idiots and crazies...
and wise men (if you can find them). My wife and my children
are happy and successful because we have always make time
for them.
There's no greater love that a man laying down his life for
a friend. I want friends like that, and when you find them
TREASURE them, because they are rare!!!
