I applaud this action, but I'm sad that we've come to the point that what is simply a commonsense and morally upright action appears to be "bold" and unusual to our present-day senses.

I think that people might be willing to overlook a few gaffes from a former presidential campaign now...

I'm all for giving money BACK to the people!!!
