To the Editor:

Does Romney really care about poor and middle class people?
At Ryan's campaign rally on 9/26, a poor woman, who makes $350 every two weeks, told Ryan she is on welfare out of necessity.  She was in hopes Ryan would tell her how Romney's presidency would be able to help her so that she could get off welfare or give her some POSITIVE REASON to vote for Romney.
SO, what did Ryan tell this lady?  He lectured the less fortunate, then indicated that he would give them a hands-up, NOT a hand-out, then he indicated less fortunate need to be "taught to fish" because he and Romney don't believe in ''feeding the fish." WHAT????   WITHOUT ANY FEELING,  Ryan was telling the country where he and Romney stand when it comes to NOT caring about the less fortunate. He insulted this woman and all less fortunate and middle class people in this  COUNTRY that he and Romney want to control so that they can cut programs for the poor and middle class, like Medicare, Medicaid, welfare, food stamps, EDUCATION and many others just so that they can give more tax breaks to the already RICH.  TALK ABOUT THE REDISTRIBUTION OF MONEY.  ROMNEY WANTS TO GIVE IT TO THE RICH.
OBAMA WANTS TO HELP THE POOR AND MIDDLE  CLASS.
RICH?  VOTE FOR ROMNEY.
