Analysis of The cost of freedom



A politician dining at a nice
restaurant enjoying his freedom
and tax write off for his meal.
A corporate executive enjoying
his bonus,from a well padded
government military contract.
A business man who enjoyed the
recent tax break,but thinks how
much it cost him because his employee,
the reservists has been called to duty.
The employer who intead of giving
his secetary,the wife of a serviceman
a raise thinks of replacing her
because his client's may see
tears running down her face to
often.The school supervsonr complaining
of his school district low scat scores
while teachers try to educate kids
who may never see their parents again.
