It must be, liberals keep defending it as if it's the best life one could have. So when is your welfare going to help the economy like Pelosi said?

The only liberals who claim that are those in the strawmen put forth by the RWN.

Government expenditures help the economy. Particularly when other expenditures are not being made. Fact of life. Get use to it.

Oh so take it out of the economy, government charges a huge handling fee (paying their friends) then put back into the economy (the bones). Yea, that's liberals idea of stimulus.

I always wonder why the right wing wackos that think living on welfare and food stamps is so great don't just quit their jobs and try it for themselves. I guess they are too busy propping up their strawmen to actually think about the stupid crap they say.

It does not surprise me that you would be unfamiliar with words like Duty, Honor, Self Respect, Self Sufficiency, Work Ethic, Personal Responsibility Etc....

You liberals should know. You advocated against welfare reform in the 1990s

No We create it out of whole cloth and spend it. And in so doing we keep the economy out of deflation...a good thing.

Eventually the piper must be paid. But hopefully that is in good times...like not doing the Bush tax cuts.

i would think the best money spent by the government is welfare reform. That however is not the RWN version which is cease spending on welfare.

That is money spent to remove the need for welfare.
