I really think you can't read English. What part of "Got an engineering degree at the right time and made my first hundred grand before I was 29" are you having trouble with? Most people would grasp that the clock started ticking when I graduated.
Anyway, putting your inability to grasp this simple concept aside, the very fact that I did flip burgers when I was fifteen shows that the statement about being taught not to work is right wing gibberish with no basis in fact. Imagine that.
It's not the past generations I was referring to.........
On the state level, California is leading the nation is food stamp outrages. The state currently gives the most money of any state. California recently decided that using the food stamp debit card may embarrass some people. So now, Californians of food stamps can withdraw cash from ATM machines. The money can then be used to buy cigarettes, lottery tickets, alcohol, and even drugs.
California hip-hop singer Chapter is on food stamps. She brags in her song and other youtube videos about how easy it is to abuse the food stamp program in California and encourages her friends to apply.
This program started under President Bush........who I believe in his last term was a closet liberal or Pelsoi had a ring in his nose leading him in circles. Food stamps have always been a sign of you need a better job, only seniors and single parents should receive food stamps.

Well, you'd have to tell yourself that, wouldn't you? Either that or admit to yourself that it isn't liberals who created these programs at all. The Republican Torture Party did something you don't like, but you're a supporter of the Republican Torture Party so you have to blame someone else. It's called cognitive dissonance, and the right suffers from it a lot because their beliefs aren't supported by the facts. It's why you accuse Bush of being a liberal, and it's why the scientifically illiterate accuse climatologists of committing fraud. You are unable to acknowledge that Republicans instituted this plan (don't see it being aimed specifically at liberals, by the way. Nor does it teach kids not to work.), and they are unable to acknowledge that the likes of Perry and Bachmann and Inhofe are ignorant buffoons who don't know what they're talking about.
Quite frankly, I think you're just a cloaca for the sorts of nonsense clowns like Hannity and Limbaugh spout. No need to talk to me any more, if I want to know what you think I'll just dig up the transcripts of their latest shows.

No what I am saying is Conservatives often act just like Liberals and think giving money to people or corporations will help.....it rarely ever does.

First family returns to Martha's Vineyard for summer vacation, while furloughs kick in
The first family is returning this summer to Martha’s Vineyard, the third time the Obamas have vacationed on the exclusive Massachusetts island in the past four years.
President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama will arrive August 10 and stay through August 18, the White House said earlier this month.
The vacation is drawing some criticism about the president relaxing among the rich and famous while drastic cuts to the federal budget known as sequester kick in with full force, including the start this month of furloughs for 85 percent of the Defense Department’s civilian workforce.
The family is reportedly staying near Chilmark pond in a “veddy private, veddy secluded and veddy posh island retreat,” writes Boston Herald columnist Gayle Fee.
Among the closest neighbors will be Hollywood couple Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen, whom Fee describes as “ardent” Democrats and friends of President Clinton and wife Hillary Clinton, the former secretary of state.
Still, at least one local merchant is excited about the first family’s return.
“It’s nice to have the president of the United States,” Robert Breth, owner of Martha’s Bike Rental, told FoxNews.com on Sunday. “It puts the word out about Martha’s Vineyard.”
Breth downplayed the inconveniences of the visit, saying the presidential motorcade can create some traffic problems, “but it’s quiet for the most part. They’re not here to make a ruckus.”
The White House says the first couple has no public events scheduled that week. Daughters Sasha and Malia have joined their parents on the previous vacations.
The Obamas didn’t vacation on the island during the 2012 election season but spent the first three trips at the Blue Heron Farm in Chilmark, which overlooks Tisbury Great Pond.
However, the 28-acre retreat was bought in 2011 for $21.9 million by British architect Lord Norman Foster.
Would be nice if he would vacation in Detroit. Go see a Tigers game.
Trayvon supporters who are boycotting Florida should also consider going there. Detroit sure could use the money.
can you imagine how stressed out he is after finding out he could have been tra'von ?
all those years of living as a rich entitled white kid was a bad dream...

How long have they been back from Africa? Would it not be fair for them to cut back?
