If You Are Unemployed, You Should Starve, says Michele Bachmann

This is a woman who claims to be a Christian too.

What does Christ have to say on the matter?

Matthew 25:31-46(NIV)

The Sheep and the Goats
31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.

34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’

44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’

45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’

46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

Apperantly you have never earned anything in your life... Go back to your TB infested OWS camp!

Who are you talking too? I work and have never received government assistance. The only food I can afford is bologna and beans.

When our government endorses trade policies that allow corporations to move hundreds of thousands of jobs offshore, then allow the same corporations to move their mailing address offshore to avoid paying corporate taxes, the government becomes fascist and IS the problem.

When Greenspan retied from the Fed, then admitted that he purposely manipulated interest rates to slow down small business growth and purposely keep the unemployment rate above 4 percent, the the government IS the problem.

Today, there is only one job for every seven unemployed people. They have diminished our ability to be self-sufficient and have diminished our ability to earn a living.

There are only so many dog-walkers, lawn mowing and e-bay selling jobs to go around. If you think that everyone can suddenly start their own business, be absorbed into the economy and make a living wage, you are living in a fantasy world.

Actually, there is so much that is "beyond" your hate infected sense of comprehension that it's truly breathtaking. You're one sick puppy.

So, are you saying Jesus would demand this be done via taxation at the tip of a Roman spear?????

That's what's going on right now. Don't give me the Christian GUILT TRIP. It's not going to work because Jesus did not support FORCING this shit via taxation at the tip of a Roman spear.

You are a good example of why england is england, a welfare state full of people who can't afford good dental care. Instead of creating an opportunity for yourself, you prefer to use the power of police to take what is earned by others to provide you with a meager existence. The problem comes when people get tired of paying your way. You also lie about what exactly she says. In addition, you're english, so mind your own business.

Yeah, telling people to get up off their asses and feed themselves is "hate." LOL

Good one. Will you be here all week? Don't forget to tip the waitress - at least she's willing to work.

Tell all that to the 20 million wetbacks that are gainfully employed. Tell THEM all the reasons it can't be done.

and they control the job market.
it's all part of the global population reduction program.
love,tho, shall prevail.

I want the US to go back to the constitution and give real capitalism a try, no more corporate welfare. I have been feeding the poor with my taxes, lets see Exxon do the same.

yeah.. the garden tomatoes will pay the rent/mortgage..

I don't mind the wet backs they do work, I know many. But they don't make very much either.

Bring back manufacturing to the US, you will see what real skills can do.

Do you realize that oil companies make a few pennies per gallon of gas and the government take like 40 cents or more in tax?

Oil companies pay BILLIONS in taxes. GE, on the other hand, paid NOTHING and got billions in taxpayer funded bailouts at the same time. And, ahem, Immelt - 0bama's jobs czar and campaign contributor - not only took taxpayer funded bailouts and paid NOTHING in tax, but he then shipped thousands of jobs to China (in his medical imaging and aircraft engines businesses).

0bama is the worst crony capitalist out there. Talk about corporate welfare. It's not the oil companies, it's 0bama's homies like GE and Solyndra.

No business is coming BACK until the punitive anti-business regulations are done away with... AND THAT means ousting 0bama and his gang of thieves in the Senate. If we don't do that, nothing else is going to matter.

They may not pay taxes either but I saw a thread were Exxon paid zero tax during their largest year of profit.

I will agree with this.

Lemme guess.... you're that fat fuck Michael Moore. You know, the guy who makes $50 million on some POS flick and then tells everyone to hate the rich....

Yeah, I get it now. Damn man, try switching to salads for once? The roughage might help clear your mind.

Wetbacks?

Every job has two sides...what you do and what you get back. There's the work you do, and the compensation you get back. Please notice that I said "living wage", not "depressed wage".

When McCain said (during his debate with Obama) that Americans don't want to pick strawberries, he meant that Americans won't do it for near-slave wages. Then he said something absolutely amazing. He said something like if he had a field, he wouldn't be able to find Americans to pick strawberries for $35 an hour!

What happened that night and the next day? His phone rang off the hook with Americans wanting to pick strawberries for $35 per hour!

I've seen the tin and cardboard huts that migrant workers in this country live in (near Sunnyside, Washington and other places). Not even the wetbacks want to live like that.

Wetback wages and living wages are two different things.

Nah, actually Bernanke is pretty good, but Greenspan left him too big a mess for anyone to clean up. What about the last Treasury Secretary, Paulson formerly of Goldman Sachs? What about the people who forced banks to lend to noncreditworthy borrowers? What about this, what about that?

The rabbit hole goes deep and wide. It is a systemic problem. It could have been substantially cured, by allowing the system to collapse. When Paulson started complaining there was systemic risk, risk to the financial system, the right response was "good, it's about time!"

I picked strawberries and pruned grapevines for $1.50 an hour when I was 13. I would do it today for anything more than minimum.

I have to agree with you this moron is worst than a cockroach i saw many thread of that dick head spitting his hatred and intolerance everywhere.

He must be one of those stupid racist hill billy's with a pea brain.

There is many like him here just ignore it.

It's nobody's duty to make sure you get paid enough to pay your bills. It would do you good to realize that it's YOUR DUTY to live within your means. If you want more, learn to be more productive. Your bills are nobody's responsibility but yours.

Why would that be? It makes perfect sense that if you will not do for your self, neither will others. I have worked from the age of sixteen (48 now) and in that time I have been out of work twice. I received unemployment the first time and have to admit, it's hard to go on out and find a job when someone is willing to give you check for doing nothing. I finally moved out of state and went to the employment office to find out what jobs were available. The first thing the person behind the counter said was "let me guess,you want to transfer you benefits to your new address". When I told her "no, I want a JOB!" she could not believe it. So maybe you want to keep funding some slob sitting on his couch all day playing video games and getting either drunk or high, then keep forking out your cash. Me, I would rather keep mine to take care of my family, who by the way all have jobs.

Big corporations have been making more profits in the last 4 years than at any time in history!

It wasn't "regulations" that motivated the corporate reptiles to take 20,000,000 jobs to Communist China, it was fucking "GREED."

Under your theory, Americans could have all the jobs they wanted if they just agreed to work under the same miserable, unrewarding, hazardous, unhealthy, oppressive, and thankless conditions that they do in China, or some other 3rd World country that cultivates a peasant class.

Furthermore, your implications that the economic crises is basically the fault of Democrats is absurd in the extreme. Both parties are equally subjugated by the bloodsucking plutocrats that own and supervise them. Wall Street banks and giant corporations own the U.S. government, we are now unequivocally a plutocracy.

The fact that you still buy into staged Dem/Rep dog fight only exposes your ignorance.

If personal responsibility is too much for you to handle, go assume the fetal position and suck your thumb.

The real world is for adults, not whiny ass bitches who can't even be bothered with feeding themselves.

You have some sick Freudian need to crawl back into your mommy's womb and reconnect the umbilical. But since that's not really possible, you want to crawl back into government's womb where everything is nice and safe and warm and fuzzy and you don't have to think or do anything. You may be satisfied with that, but the REAL ADULTS in the room want nothing to do with it.

What can you expect from a moron with an avatar with a japanese manga character with a sniper rifle!

Nothing very intelligent yep that right probably a teenager frustrated with acne!
