Kennedy "The pay is good and I can walk to work." "The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it.

Whatever you say, the conclusion is mine.’ But the internet is like a tree that is growing. The people will always have the last word – even if someone has a very weak, quiet voice.
