   I liked Ronnie, but I didn't actually know him, of course.  I saw the crap Iraq   
   pulled on you in '79, & Carter's lameduck responses to it.   
      
   Even before November-1980's election, Everyone, including Iraq, knew they were   
   going to be dead meat if they didn't shit it down & return the hostage American   
   journalists, unharmed.   
      
   I can't recall as I was young(12) & not that focused(Autistic), did they return   
   the hostages prior to Reagan officially entering the White House?

   Yup, they see the news from Canada.  Tghe whole point of it in the beginning,   
   here, was to allow everyone(or as manty as possible) to hunker down at home &   
   stop being potential spreaders, but Canada's socierty doesn't want people   
   losing their homes over it, so the $2K was intended to pro0vide at leastr some   
   income to cover rent/mortgage/etc.   
      
   But that lovfely net gor cut up & hung up on the porches. . . & it's now been a   
   couple years of "hammock time"   
      
   I can't wait to use that Reagan quote on Facebook, & see how quickly I lose   
   friends! *LOL* I don't want those kind of people in association with me or my   
   name.  Ditto for those who have a bigoted anti towards Obama(I thought he was   
   mainly useless, IN HIS JOB, & that has nothing to do with melanin levels)   
      
   I have no time or patience for bigotry in any form.   
      
   I'll discuss the issues relating to such from either side of things, because   
   it's all about facts vs facts vs assumptions vs opinions.   
      
   Or I play accuradio or Youtube in the background & learn things, like how some   
   people want to get their 10,000 steps a day in without actually walking, so   
   they put their Fitbit into a rolled-up double sock & run it in the dryer for a   
   while.   
      
    > > especially as emplyers often have a thing against hiring the disabled,   
      
    >   Everyone has special skills and talents regardless of their disability.    
      
   Of course, but not every emplyer of a ceretyain generation is open to learning   
   or understanding this. Our new person in charge of our new federal law that is   
   our version of your ADA has as his fgirsrt task, opening up employers to new   
   ideas to include disabled workers where they provide good value (Maybe you have   
   one applicant to a fulltime position who can only work 4-hour shifts, so why   
   not pair them up with someonbe else(even if disabled) to fill the 8-hour time   
   slot. & stop forcing everythig to be "full time, period."   
      
   I never apply for any job I can't do better than the rest of the applicants,   
   even  if I am limited in sopme ways by only having partial use of my limbs.   
      
   Yes, I can do better than most, even though I'm one-handed, & sitting down!
