Don't the extended benefits end on 12/31/12 anyway - unless Congress votes to extend them again?

The problem with liberals like you is that you have no concept of private property. The parents may need the income that the house could provide - but because it is her daughter they are willing to sacrifice in order to ensure she has a roof over her head - one that should be temporary while she gets off her butt and obtains an income that would allow her to rent at minimum a cheap apartment - or at least give a token rent payment to her parents.""""



And that is any of your business how???


It's the parents house...you don't think they have a right to use their own personal property as they see fit?


YOU want government to tell people what to do with their own property!!!

(see, two can play your game)




""""Instead - you think that because the house is vacant it should be given to the daughter for free.""""


NOPE, never said that either...why do you LIE so much....because you are on the losing side????





""" Then you mischarcterize anybody who disagrees with you as wanting "to kill" the woman.

Your assumptions and hyperbole about the situation are pathetic.
DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!


I never said the parents were millionaires...(oh that BIG reading comprehension problem!).....and as usual, the inabilty to follow a thread along in an intelligent manner is so lacking.....tsk, tsk

"YOU know nothing about their financial status but are willing to make asumptions" to suit your political agenda.

The girl is living in the house with her parents' approval. That's all any of us know. Your entire post is useless conjecture.

You said that I was advocating for the house to be used by millionaires and you also said that I wanted to kill the woman.

Get your story straight and stop lying.

Thank you Mr Hussein!!!



There are plenty of jobs, too bad most unemployed Amerit***s consider them beneath them.

Both parties decided 20-30 million illegals in this country is no problem. So the illegals are doing a heck of a lot more than working on farms. Many of them are skilled tradesmen, working in various skilled fields. Of course this undercuts the base wage for Amerit*** workers in these professions. So of course many Amerit***s are turning away from this type of work. But what will they do for work....wah-lah, they will not work...but get on Big Brother's dole.

The politics of immigration are thorny, but it is a simple truth that construction companies routinely use day laborers without checking their immigration status: Thousands of those workers have helped and are helping to rebuild New Orleans.

We are also discussing free markets - as in she can do something that someone will pay her enough for and use the income to rent her own pad until her garage sale/resale business "picks" up.

This usually called "a job".

She had a good job before Obama was elected. She worked for a title company and made good money. Now she won't take a job if it doesn't pay as much as her unemployment gets her. So she lives in the house her parents own and pays no rent. They kept it for extra income when they bought another house but she and her boyfriend live there rent free. He is a moocher big time and is along for the free ride.

Are all the 30 and under generation becoming like this? All pickers and giving up to work for a better life? I think our country is in big trouble folks.
Thanks for the chain letter! Can you give me her phone number? I need to pop that booty and a free couch!

The problem is with your niece. Perhaps you should find out why her parents raised her to give up so easily and also why she has this attitude. It is NOT typical.
While I wouldn't say everyone, there are way to many who do think like her.

The "me generation" is just being carried on.

Hey it's her parents house they can do what ever they want with it. With regards to her picking I think it's great that she's doing something and not sitting in front of the TV doing nothing, like so many of the leeches that we have in our Country. I'm a conservative. Good for her.
