And so what if obamaschool is taxpayer funded...so is high school. Maybe we should defund all the high schools right? Its 2015, we've needed better educated populace for a while now.
So quit! Feel free! Mooch away if its so awesome, go try and be poor!
Nah - I am already paying for about 10 free loaders per year now - they aint' gettin an extra nickel from me.
Notice no matter how much free stuff you give the free loaders they are still poor. It's like the w2 worker who thinks if only they could get a good raise life would be rosy. For some reason they keep forgetting the "learn to handle money" part of the equation. I have no problem with w2 workers but they should teach more about personal finance and people need to learn how to say no, I don't NEED that.
Financial peace isn't the acquisition of stuff. It's learning to live on less than you make.
Honestly I feel bad, but I don't. I can't tell you how many times I've been in line at Wal-Mart behind some 20 year-old with three kids, one of which is always a newborn, and she's paying for everything with EBT. It's like okay, you couldn't afford the first kid, couldn't afford the second, so the obvious solution is to get knocked up with a third. There's no accountability when Uncle Sam foots the bill.
Shh, it's not PC to talk about that. They can't possibly be at fault for their poverty <sarcasm>
Yes! Everybody in Cleveland, low minorities, got Obama phone. Keep Obama in president, you know? He gave us a phone!
You seem to bring up Obama in every one of your posts, or at least once in every thread you chime in on, regardless of whether or not he has anything at all to do with the subject.
Your obsession is remarkable.
One of the things you continually lie about is this "Obamaphone" business.
It's been showed to you numerous times, but you still trot out the lie.

Since 1985, the Lifeline program has provided a discount on phone service for qualifying low-income consumers to ensure that all Americans have the opportunities and security that phone service brings, including being able to connect to jobs, family and emergency services. In 2005, Lifeline discounts were made available to qualifying low-income consumers on pre-paid wireless service plans in addition to traditional landline service. Lifeline is part of the Universal Service Fund.
The Lifeline program is available to eligible low-income consumers in every state, territory, commonwealth, and on Tribal lands. Consumers with proper proof of eligibility may be qualified to enroll.
Lifeline cell phones since 2005. Hmmm. WHO was POTUS in 2005?
"Eek! That horrible socialist Bush Junior! What a scam! He's going to be the death of our economy with his handouts to the scumsucking leeches of the nation!!!"

I see poor folks with smart phones (these have expensive plans) and I just don't understand how someone with a SNAP card can afford one of these............or the Mercedes in the parking lot.

short answer: baby mama with under-the-table support from grandma, siblings, boyfriend, and baby daddy. someone else is actually paying for the car and the smartphone she is using. If she married the baby daddy, his income would make her ineligible for government assistance.
in the meantime the childless poor often have negligible or no resources beyond government assistance and whatever they can earn.
I want me one of them there 'bama phones. Too late for the 'bama tuition - already spent 4 K in community college tuition for my daughter
Your daughter and you can't both have one of those phones.
