I hate children?lol I think abortions shouldnt happen as often as they do.
Birth control is pretty effective and its cheaper than diapers and formula..well...
Unless other taxpayers have to pay then its free.

Corporate welfare?You mean like tax cuts and incentives?
I think in many cases corporations shaft the american people and put the dollar above all.
Whats the solution though?There needs to be a balance where they can make a profit...
And the worker gets a fair deal.I get the feeling some would like to tax them to death or..
Just have a government take-over of these companies.
The government is just a bad as most of these corporations if not worse.

Those are the rules, but no one enforces them.

That's kind of a huge generalization, don't you think?

If you can provide links to statistics or legal resolutions that prove these rules are not enforced nationally and as a matter of course, please post 'em.

End it all, period. Stop robbing Peter (producer taxpayer) to pay Paul (parasitic non-producer) to sucure political power.
Are you talking about the banks' bailout -- and claiming that banks dont play a somewhat important part in society?

I am against the bail outs. All of them.
Bailout= Welfare


see, I guess it's a polite "bailout" if the money is going to The Wealthy.


It's dirty old Welfare if it's going to the needy poor.



BUT IT'S THE SAME THING.

Seems like a lot of buck for little bang since it isn't exactly an unknown fact that the "non-producing parasites" as you call them, vote in lower numbers than any other economic group.

But you don't want an innocent young child to get support/food/shelter because YOU disaprove of her lifestyle...YOU then DO NOT care about that child....you want to [protect it in the womb but once it's out to hell with it...that's pretty accurate interpretation of rightie's "love" of children.

No, I mean bailouts.....BIG HUGE Welfare Checks!!!!!

Be careful throwing around that common sense, our bubble is fragile and we will defend it to the death!
