Re: Anyone familiar with Section 8 housing in S.C.
Posted by this is getting to be a waste of time... on 7/04/07

    Mr. Rogers,

    Not putting my name on a post does not mean I am hiding, calm down. I
    have student loans piled on me because I was just above poverty level and
    was not allowed health insurance and my life has been most likely worse
    than yours. I work in the business and see people such as yourself get
    DENIED help because of other people who try to milk the system. So I'm
    going to say it again, get a grip and quit trying to smack down on
    everything I say. I got into this business to help people but people who
    get angry about govn assistance, losers getting it when they shouldn't
    and people who deserve it and can't get it, should write the feeral
    government, they are the ones who have screwed up the welfare system, on
    top of each individual state. Responding to you is getting to be a waste
    of my time, there are others who are poor and trying, you're not the only
    one.
