Things Trixie Loves
1. Does anyone know where this is from? I’d like to link it, if possible. 2. This ought to be disturbing, even—or especially—as a pacifist. Though I may not agree with war, or even handing a standing offensive army, I do agree that all of our veterans deserve the following: healthcare including psychiatric and psychological care, housing, family counseling, job training, and most importantly, free education. Bert Jacobs pointed out to us in our Death and Dying class that the only time in recent history that this country has taken proper care of its vets was after WWII, when systems were put in place to give these 18-, 19-, 20-year-old kids the opportunity to receive a free college education. And look where that took us. Look how it got us through. The greatest generation? Yeah, but not because they fought for us. Because we fought for them, too. It’s time to start fighting for our veterans again.
