Why does the GOP block cutting Corporate Subsidies?
Why does the GOP block cutting the bloated "defense" budget?
Why does the GOP block cutting the War on Drugs?
Why does the GOP block cutting the War on Terror?

Instead, they cut Food Stamps..
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 9313


its a nice start..get rid of welfare, I can't afford it anymore. Wondering if you believe people are entitled to choose to sit on their ass all day and take a cut of everyone elses paycheck?

If so..get the fuk out of my country

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 40238041


yeah, that's what those CEOs at Exxon and Haliburton are doing, yet you support giving them more money...

We give $70B a year to corporations like that, and you are bitching about Food stamps going to AMERICAN CITIZENS.

Not to mention the free money we dole out to Israel, Pakistan, Afghanistan, ect.

Again, the government spends 3.5x as much on handouts as they do on defense.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 47107726

that is utter nonsense. Military spending contributes more to the national debt than anything else.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 9313
Liberal propaganda sleight of hand, chopping up entitlements into small pieces while lumping all DoD spending into one pile.

And you know what? a significant part of military spending are govt "handouts" like health care for vets, retirement, etc.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 40238041


So you want a war on the poor where anyone not born into either a rich family or into a situation that allows them to succeed, should be "gassed"?

Also, what I am getting at, is that this is how you create a race war or a war on the poor. Once you cut off thier food source they will be rioting and robbing houses like yours in order to survive.

Come on, that "greatest generation" stuff is historically inaccurate and, socially, they became some of the worst bullies in US history.

They fought for our freedom from what exactly? The ability to continue US imperialism post war. The ability to offer very little in personal, in comparison, and have the geopolitical and infrastructure post war to dominate all form of trade. A way for the country with the worlds worse debt to become the creditor. For a bunch of openly racist, jingoistic war profiteers to send half a million men to their deaths just to fill their pockets and further secure their economic influence.

I could go on, but of all the recent bullshit to come down the pipe, the "greatest generation" label really pushes my buttons.

Nothing like creating a manufacturing vacuum and a MALE worker vacuum at the same time to drive an economy from debt to creditor and allow for a gender minority to bully the gender majority.

The federal food stamp program is so fucking full of fraud that it ought to be completely dismantled and sent to the states to institute for them selves, not to mention the fact that there is no provision in the US Constitution that makes it legal. States are better equipped to deal with potential fraud because, unlike the federal government, they can not simply print money and add the cost of it to endless, unsustainable debt.

Show me where in the constitution it provides for a welfare system??? It does provide for an army but where is welfare in the document???

Where does it provide for public schools, hospitals or any medical coverage etc etc etc.???

There's plenty of high paying jobs out there that companies are begging anyone to come work for them. It's time for these people to go and start living the American dream like everyone else. Oh wait it's the other way around people are out there begging for any job. But what you point out doesn't exist in the minds of those who choose not to see beyond the dollars coming out of their own pocket each payday. They only see that those dam lazy welfare bums are fed with their money personally and eat better than they do dammit. They don't care about what would occur long term cutting off social welfare programs or even stopping paying taxes all together. Just stop taking any of their money at all who cares if it creates a situation ten times worse it's their money.
