Pets
I think the federal government should create FEPA. The Federal Emergency Pet Association so that middle class families can petition for aid when their pets have to go to the vet. I have 3 people that I know that have spent an average of $1416.00 in vet fees in the last week. Money well spent to stop the puking, defecating and urinating caused by a sick pet, however, if the Feds are going to be bailing out people who took out negative amortization loans and stopped paying their mortgages (because of vet bills probably) I think the middle class needs a hand out so that their pooches can receive better health care than their owners receive. Maybe Hillary can add a Universal Pet HealthCare to her platform that way when illegal immigrants come to the United States they can bring their pets. AH

I could use some of that! I am getting my puppy spade on monday for 225.00.. Just so she wont bleed all over my 2500.00 worth of carpet that i just got.. Along with that aid, I could use a better mortgage too, maybe since i do work hard for my money and I pay my bills on time and i have good credit, I think the next president should cut me a break and lower my mortgage rate.. Maybe even eliminate some of my bills. I would be good with that.. Then she/he could throw in a free illegal immigrant to do all my yard work, since my tax money will pay for the visa credit card they get rack up and never pay thanks to our government “helping” them..

You don’t even want to know how much I have spent on vet bills during the last week. You may need to adjust your average upward by about a grand! Health Care Flexible Spending Account eligibility would be a good place to start.

I would think there is a limit on how much you are going to spend. maybe forget the dog somewhere like the eskimos do to elderly people.

Today is D-day for our 11 year old dog. I take him to be put out of his misery in about an hour. Prostate surgery a suggested, but when I researched it on Google, the odds of success were worse than in Vegas. The reactiosn to this decision within the family have varied greatly and would make an interesting case study.

I am assuming that you are a cold hearted and evil person in the house now.
