    The working poor was what last nights episode covered @Taurisk and that single dad working so hard and his daughter
    had a computer at school but not at home.
    Surely a charity could help there.

    It is living hand to mouth continually and would be the most enormous mental strain on anyone.  Some appliance
    stops working and where does the money come to fix it.
    Eventually depression would kick in with many under those circumstances as well.  There would be a few wet pillows
    at night that their children would not see.

    Such great people who started Second Bite and help all they can by providing a meal and great volunteer cooks too.

    The other thing I was thinking of too is dental pain.  With a pandemic many would be waiting so long if they were lined
    up for free dental and in the mean time find it hard to chew.
    Many will and do lose teeth.

    This is not what I want Oz to be like - the haves and the have nots.

    As for the pay for cleaning - at least twice that in my area and could I get such good cleaners?  A definite no there.

    I've got it bad I think - empathy in spades.
