As if you cannot recognize another fishing LINE for voters.
The carrot on the stick being dangled in front of the donkey,
If you walk this way/ follow us/ vote for us and pay more taxes, we MIGHT give you that carrot

Nobody is denied, but many far too many people blindly and willingly put themselves in slavery by accepting government control over their lives.
If you wanna take a shot at greatness, you can't do it on the government dole.

Young adults who cannot enroll in classes at their local community college because the education budget has been cut--thus 500+ sections have been eliminated!
Fewer classes means it takes longer to achieve the transfer credits to college
High tuition costs make college education impossible for those who cannot "borrow the money from their parents" Young adults are being denied education...that is the great leveler--education.
And, yes, the dreamers. Children born in the USA whose parents were/are illegal immigrants should have equal opportunity to education.

Everyone deserves and should be given a fair chance. To Republicans. You really need to stop watching the not fair and not balanced FOX. You guys be tripping. You come up with the dumbest things to ask and say. Unbelievably. Think for yourself.

*She meant, those that want the American dream, but don't want to work for it, it should be given to them. Just like everything else that is given to the freeloaders.
