Because you can afford it and others can't.

Why don't you have compassion for the poor?
When I was poor no one had compassion for me. When I lost jobs, no one cried for me, Argentina. When we were just starting out, we didn't have a pot to piss in, but we made do ourselves. We didn't hold our hands out and demand that others pay for our child care -- we arranged our work schedules so one of us was always home with the kids. We didn't demand that others pay for our kid's lunches. We made them a lunch every day to take to school with them.

If all that is even true, why would you want that to continue for others?

And define poor. I don't think you know what poor is like at all.

This was an awesome meeting. People have finally had enough of this MAGA bullshit.

Just a month in and heads are starting to roll.

Like I said, the public is fickle.

If all it takes is egg prices to gain a vote, those same egg prices can come back and punch you in the face.

His big shot ME liaison Kellog was fired on the first day of the big Gaza negotiations. Apparently hiring incompetent yes men isn’t going too smoothly.

Oh that's right. You think I'm "privileged" and have had everything handed to me.

You're free to your own delusions, dear.

Others can and should make their own ways in the world. It is not my obligation nor responsibility to pay for the fuck ups of others.

I see you ran away from defining poor.

Poor is when you don't have a pot to piss in and you scramble and fret and stress and claw for a way forward.

Parasite leech is when you sit on your ass with your hand out expecting others to pay for your shit.

Government programs that hand shit out to people create a class of parasite leeches completely dependent on government for their support.

I almost think sometimes that that was the plan from the beginning with the Great Society Welfare programs.

Did you know that here in Illinois we have families that are entering their 6th generation of Welfare dependence?

My parents depended on public assistance off and on in my childhood, whenever my dad lost jobs.
I have three siblings. None of us has ever been on public assistance. We've paid back everything back into the system that was ever provided us.

I don't have a problem with giving a hand up because of that. Where is the evidence that there are families with 6 generations since the 1960's to begin with, ffs?

I don't have a problem with providing temporary assistance to those truly in need. It's determining that need that is the sticky wicket. Our Welfare systems are also rife with fraud, waste and abuse, as you well know.

AS for the generation welfare thing, I know this because I personally know people who are generational welfare recipients.

I don't give two shits what you are or where you came from. Helping out those in need shouldn't bother you at all if you're human.
