You sure about that? I believe there are significant barriers and check-ins for welfare and food stamp qualification. Disability is a different beast. Once you gain permanently disabled status with the government, there is no re-check... You're on it for life. And there are lots of attorneys and insurance companies that will help you achieve that status.

You think only things that can be proved are true? Guess again. The barriers came down with odumbell. Right now in Ohio they advertise government freebies all over the TV as if they are selling gadgets. We are insulated from the reality of what is happening in the Midwest/northern states. You have no idea what it is like living in a State where collecting government assistance has become an art form. I have family in Kentucky, Ohio, Michigan.. I know what I am talking about.

It is easier to get government assistance in those states than it is to find a roll of toilet paper. Sad, but very true.

I still think you are a goober. I will try and pay more attention to the posting order next time. I have not been living on this thread the past few weeks. Sorry if I didn't read all your posts before I gave my opinion. Maybe I need a program to keep up.

Just curious, are you hanging out on this thread hoping for someone to post something you can comment on? It's a big world out there... Lots of threads. You should get out more.


For the record... I don't really think you are a goober. I was kidding above. It is OK if we don't see eye to eye on everything. I am not much a fan of welfare. I see it as income redistribution. I see it as politicians purchasing votes.

I will refrain from entering the rule violating religion topic. I am surprised a mod hasn't put a stop to that argument yet.

Why is there no "cut off date" for welfare or food stamps? Is it appropriate that there are millions on welfare claiming fake disabilities?

Yes... It is a huge portion of them. The crap that is going to bring it down is the fools that think the fraud is not prevalent. At some point we can no longer hand out freebies to every second American alive. The libtards only support the welfare because they are using our tax money to buy votes from people who are not educated enough to know what is really happening.

It didn't work for Greece and it isn't going to work for America.

So now chuck feels compelled to post up that my very keen observations of his naïveté are incorrect. Chuck explains to us that in his earlier days on the forum, he would have argued about what is so apparent to ALL who read his displeasure with a free society, but now that he is an old timer around here, roughly about six weeks, he will refrain.

Thanks Chuck. I think I have your number now.

So, corporations doing what the law allows them it do to maximize profits is greed. I guess if you put money into an IRA or 401k to reduce your taxable income, and keep more of your own money, that is also premeditated greed, right? Is it now our duty to supply the government all their wants? And if we want to, legally, reduce our "contribution" to the government, are we now greedy? Guess you don't take any deductions on your income tax either, right?

Chuck appears to be confused between wealth redistribution and wealth creation. It also appears chuck doesn't recognize the fact that a person on welfare does not pay salaries or contribute in any way to society or the advancement of human kind.

It appears chuck is bothered by a person or group of people working hard, achieving a goal and contributing to society. Maybe even jealous?

Chuck, if you work hard, you too can have part of the American dream and even support others through your own success. Like these very companies you seem to have such disdain for.

When was the last time you recieved a paycheck or heard of anyone receiving a paycheck from a free rider of the system?

I don't even know what that is. Can you please explain? As someone who pays out of pocket for ALL of his medical expenses and who is about to start being fined to pay for other people's health insurance, I am about ready to hoist the Jolly Roger. Maybe "chips" (or whatever it's called) will help push me over the edge.

Children's Health Insurance Program

Correct...and most people would be blown away at how easy it is for a person to abuse the program.

On a more entertaining note. I have a young man working for me who I recently found out has managed to qualify for a food card. I am not sure how much he receives but was told it is 200 a week by one of his co-workers. Here is the rub. I could not figure out why this guy didn't care if his hours worked were low. Here is the deal. If he works too many hours, he loses some of his food card money. In his mind this means he is working for free. Pretty funny. Don't you think. Here is another good one. We offer health insurance but thanks to the libtards, our rates have exploded to the point my employees cannot afford dependent coverage. How do they deal with the problem of insurance? Well, a program called chips. Again, the catch is, they cannot make over a certain income or they start losing the chips benefits. So, once again, the government gives inspiration to Americans to refuse to work over a certain amount of hours.

Pretty funny, don't you think?

How many in here receive chips? Again... You have no right to cry if you do. You are also part of the destruction of our country. Everyone likes their freebies and acts like the other guy is a bad guy for trying to get sum too.

The joke is on all of us. It isn't charity, welfare or even being kind to the downtrodden. It is income redistribution, pure and simple. All the other terms we have been brainwashed to use are just to make us all feel good about socialism.

I would love to know how many complaining on this thread receive or have ever received earned income credit on a tax return. If you have... you have no right to complain about others getting minze.
