Oh boy... somebody dozed off in econometrics class.
Or pretends to know stuff...
Tell me, if I can demonstrate that my yearly earnings are at least double yours, will you let me call you a piece of scum?
Will you bow down and apologize to your superior ? After all contributing ''nothing'' is relative... if your contributions are just a fraction of mine...
I do know this.....when a millionaire buys a Ferrari, they pay exorbitant taxes. Taxes which go directly to the state, which fund programs for the poor.
The dealer makes money, which helps keep people employed.
The salesman earns a commission which helps him have some money on which to spend on dinner, movies, vacations, etc. which keeps people employed.
Forget about welfare recipients. What about the legion of latter day great Gatsby’s out there that are living off their dividends and capital gains whose only contribution to society is purchasing copious quantities of Tennessee whiskey. You know like our former President and at least half of the Republican delegation in Congress.

So, after your reply to my aging hippie friend, you're alluding or saying your cousin is a scumbag.
Let's eithanize that person first then, might as well start with the one who screams the loudest, right?
He is a scumbag.
I've never said that we should euthanize anyone.
Why do lefties think that there are only two choices? feed them, or kill them.
How about cutting them off and giving them the opportunity to sink or swim?
It would create a better society if people were left to their own devices.
Some will survive, others won't.
Your poor choices should not be a burden on society.
Imagine if we were truly a compassionate society who took care of those who took care of those who really need help, instead of sprinkling crumbs around to everyone?
Supposing OP was referring to the stereotypical welfare-by-choice unmarried mom of 5 (few,if any, young, healthy men would qualify for any benefits), did he really think that he would find them on C-D or that he'd get an explanation from any of them ?
Guessing that the answer is "Of course not" then you know this is just a lecture to people who aren't in attendance.
Useless.

Who pretends to know stuff?
correct on all counts. but where you left the page, is where you make a line connection to the poor. Rich pay taxes.....poor get bebfits.
More correctly everyone pays state taxes, that goes into a general fund, the poor are funded from that.
Everyone on the road with the Ferrari driver help maintain roads and infrastruture to safely travel the state's roads.
So if you want your statement to be correct, all the rest of us could pull our tax money out of the pot and let the Farrari driver foot the whole bill.
so I take it you would be fine with the drug dealer or prostitute then?
they most certainly fulfill a demand.
Would you legalise these trades?
Actually yes, or don't legalize it and just enact the FairTax. They end up paying then at least, and the idiots who want to use drugs and get STDs from hookers will select themselves out of the gene pool.
