<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Sue,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1st Point. I don't have a problem with Wal-Mart. So I don't have a
problem with PERSI. I have a problem with people bashing Wal-Mart but taking
money from them, regardless of age, they know better.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2nd Point. If liberals stopped giving money to PERSI, they would stop
investing in Wal-Mart. Pretty simple concept. If liberals stopped investing in
PERSI for that reason, their handlers would for obvious economic reasons,
would stop investing in Wal-Mart. It is called free market economics, and
it works better than protests and lobbying. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>3rd Point. I am, for the proper treatment of the elderly, not
for some people to have the right to do wrong simply because they reach a
certain age, as you seem to be advocating. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>4th Point. I would not advocate for euthanasia as you are
stating. That is called suicide, it is a selfish act that goes against
everything I believe. We are put here not by own will, and we leave this world
not at our own will. <STRONG>However, what we do while we are here, and
the actions we take are our own will. </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV>5th Point. I have worked in a nursing homes, doing things for them
nobody else would. So I don't need to prove myself to you or anyone else as to
my dedication to their dignity. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>6th Point. I didn't vote for Bush and only for a few in Boise. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Best,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Donovan,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1st point: Many, perhaps most, of those
who receive money from PERSI are elderly--certainly I am.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2nd point: I am going to assume your
self-touted compassion for the elderly extends only to those who aren't
liberals receiving money from PERSI. Obviously our needs mean
little to you. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3rd point: I have 3 sources of income:
PERSI, which constitutes about 65% of my retirement income; Social Security,
which is about 30%, and some funding I receive through my work as an
educational consultant. Yes, I gladly take my money from PERSI, quite
a bit of which comes from my contributions over the 30 years I
worked as a teacher. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4th point: I appreciate your pointing out
PERSI's investments and I will continue to lobby the PERSI investment board
to back off its investments which I feel to be an inappropriate use of
teachers' retirement funds. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>5th point: Now why don't you do something
productive for the elderly, such as I. I would suggest a significant
effort on your part to lobby the president or our policy makers from Idaho
(you are more likely to have elected them than I.) Maybe a policy
change that would allow the government to negotiate with drug companies for
Medicare recipients, or a law which would allow us to die with dignity at a
time of our choice, should we be incurably ill. I just bet you have as much
pull with those folks as I do with the PERSI Board, so hop to it,
chum. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV>It is interesting to hear all the liberals in Moscow complain about
how horrible Wal-Mart is, yet they gladly take their retirement funds from
PERSI. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>PERSI invests in Wal-Mart. As well as Exxon Mobile and Bank of
Illegals (AKA Bank of America). </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Look yourself:</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am curious to see how many of them back out of PERSI since it is
profit made from sweatshops.</DIV>
