    because pestilent slums of shoeless ragged people with swollen belly hungry children is NOT a good thing.

    That - and haven't you heard - recession - unemployment - no jobs?

    Good question, sort of but you have to understand that the "lazy scammers" on the govt payroll do not make up a very big part of the $$$ issues in this country. Still the rules should be changed to get them off the payroll and working!

    Look up, at the govt subsidies that go to big businesses, large corporation farmers, etc. You know, the ones making record profits and still getting ridiculous tax breaks and govt subsidies. That's where the money problems start!

    Why do so many have a problem w/the little guy getting a handout but not the richest getting handouts??

    Is simple, Comrade! Government good for the Peoples but Rich and Selfish American Worker who greedily accepts more than $20,000 a year does not understand it is the duty to supply 3rd and 4th generation welfare Party voters with lifestyle above that of working poor in order to ensure loyalty to Party? They do not see that Party policy will place them on welfare role so they will reap benefit provided by Party which selflessly redistribute weath of greedy American Worker to poor Party Voter who have nothing but home, cell phone, cable tv, Escalade, free food and beer? Soon, wisdom of Party place everyone on welfare, everyone poor with no greedy American Worker for support, but then everybody will be Party Voter and keep Party in power! No, Comrade, people not lazy because they vote for Party and when they vote for Party, they earn money stolen from them by Greedy American Worker!

    Why do the liberals feel entitled to share the wealth of people who have earned their salary through education and hard work?

    Irony alert..to be followed by sarcasm alert...It is not the goal to keep what I earn. My goal is that what I willingly sacrifice to the state not be wasted, corrupted,or used to pay for votes against my beliefs.

    God says He helps those who help themselves.

    How could I do less?

    I don't mind helping those who help themselves.

    I DO mind supporting an adult because working is something they would rather not do.

    I have a strong dislike for moochers.

    We should just have cops rob drivers instead of messing around with courts. It would save money on courts. And the communist Big Sis is working on it.

    It's called learned behavior. The democrats have been training laziness to our citizens for decades. They do this in exchange for votes.
