Because you can afford it and others can't.Nobody paid for my kids school lunches. Why should I pay for anyone else's?
Hey lotus, as kids we’d work in the staff room doing dishes for lunch money ha ha
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.Because you can afford it and others can't.
Why don't you have compassion for the poor?

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

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.
He’s much better at scripted rants than critical thinking.I see you ran away from defining poor.

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?
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.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?

AS for the generation welfare thing, I know this because I personally know people who are generational welfare recipients.
Which would put them being on welfare around circa 1890ish6 generations you said.

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

He seems more lizard than human...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.
That kind of thinking literally turns my stomach. How can people be so incredibly heartless?He seems more lizard than human...
