Quote:A fairer country? How does taking money from those who earned it & giving it to losers equate with fair? There are those who work their tails off and those who do nothing all days. Should both be allowed to take from the same pile? That's where we're headed...
In other words, this "Christian" nation is moving ever so slightly toward living by Christ's teachings???
It doesn't make any sense to me either.
Sounds like most anti administration posters here are still looking at their own short term situations.
And to Glencar's point, I would say that giving to losers (your term) is a small percentage of social services.
Probably no larger than the amount of people who don't need any help, but sign up and take it anyway . . .
Social security fraud, Medicare fraud, etc. It would be great if we could seriously crack down on these abuses.
We're still putting teenagers in prison for selling pot to their friends. More wasted money and lives.
Meanwhile, life is GREAT in the financial services industry. Party !!!
