What do we do about the drunks in my town? (live, to move)

[54-60&285]

Why not? They couldn't do it. To bring them back down to earth. Most of these people are so damn high and almighty.

While we are at it, why don't we allow the poor to line up and drill em with 200 volts? It won't solve any problems, but at least it will makem feel better for a few minutes! Just like heroin.

She's just another skank whose parents have money. Give her another 5 years or so when she's all washed up and nobody wants to see her bleached blond hair and little yapper dog she carries around and she'll end up like the rest of the poor little rich kids, all washed up.

Why don't we all become skanks and let America take care of us? Pass the heroin please.
No thank you. I'm not high and mighty, just have a little common sense. I don't pity the people that choose to live this lifestyle and if they die, who cares?

Feel better, Hell. They have all the money in the world. What the hell do they need to feel better for? They should have nothing to be sad about. And why the hell do rich people do drugs for? How stupid! You see these rich people dying of overdoses on pain pills and antidepressants? Give me a break!

There's only so much society can do, when it comes to channeling resources, be it through money, or more importantly, time. At some point, there has to be a cintilla of accountability. I think circa 2009, we have collectively, as a society, reached the point of battle fatigue, when it comes to attempting to uplift these people through government programs, personal interventions, etc. Since the Great Society in 1965, and LBJ, we've pissed away 8 trillion on poverty. The poverty rate back then was 12.5 percent. Today it's 12.3 percent. Practically no change whatsoever.

And it is only going to get worse, especially with the economy the way it is. No work or anything. But hey,I almost forgot God helps those who help themselves. I am one of the people who got laid off and am doing odds and ends to get by. I am not going to go out and get drunk get on drugs or get in trouble.

So what you're saying is that rich people shouldn't do drugs because they have money and people with money don't have problems?
Are you serious?
And because some people are poor, it's okay and acceptable to be a druggie and play victim and have my tax dollars support them?
Again, are you being serious and do you really enjoy people playing the victim?

Just let the government stimulate me every once in awhile. Why not? Kinda like they are paying taxes in a way.

[54-60&285]

I am not saying that at all. Just why the hell do they resort to that kind of life? The rich or the poor doesn't matter why go down that road? They need to pull there heads out of there asses and be fortunate for what they have.
