Far from giving you the shirt off their back, they won't give one nickel to you or anyone else. Stingy to the bone. They HATE guv'ment, but you better not touch their entitlements. Most collect Social Security and Medicare which they insist they "earned" by virtue of the hard knocks they dealt with growing up in the most prosperous economy in the history of the world. At 17, they faced tough choices like - take a blue collar job and be immediately propelled into the middle class ... being able to afford a mortgage and support a family at the age of 21 OR go to college where the tuition is so low they can pay it in full each semester by working a part time job. These guys had it rough all right and they never get tired of letting you know it. They've done their time though. They're not working anymore - just sitting back collecting those fat government checks and screaming at the top of their lungs about how hard they're going to bite the hand that feeds them.

There are statists and there are freemen. Good thing Americans have been conditioned to believe they live in a democracy where the will of the people ( aka majority unless the majority are opposed to a protected class ) should rule.

I'd argue there are the statists (libs/Dems), those that think they aren't statists but really are (Libertarian Party/anti-fed cons), and freemen (the anarchists).
