Just because you think you know something, that doesn't make it so... I was a Johnson supporter, and not sure how my comment would prove otherwise. Do only Obama supporters think people can lie??

As she paid with her EBT card, I couldn’t help but wonder what it feels like to be able to buy as much top dollar food as you want with redistributed money of others, or if that would even cross the mind.

Does our current system give people any reason to stop taking advantage, stop having kids they can’t pay for, to be thankful for what they are given, or encourage them to get off the system to support their own existence? I’m talking about the leaches, not the vets, retirees, or handicapped, so keep that in mind.

Save the BS, I don’t feel like arguing about how heartless I am or people who are critical of our failed systems are. I don’t need to hear sad stories, I’ve experienced my own. I just want to know what you think about our welfare system, and its contribution to our entitlement society and the debt.

Is there any hope for our society or have we finally lost the country to the "give me free stuff crowd"..
You sir, are low hanging fruit for the Republican party. All they have to do is prattle off some hate speech about handouts destroying this country and you'll run to the ballot box to vote for them faster than you can say "welfare queen." Am I right?

Meanwhile you ignore the fact that oil companies, huge corporations and millionaires are using tax loopholes and getting massive tax breaks thanks to the party that supposedly thinks everybody should pay their fair share.

I can really tell that you're an expert in politics and economics since you rebutted my claim so thoroughly with your razor sharp "crony capitalism" comeback. It was flawless.

I'm not too worried... I've lived and worked in much worse neighborhoods, I'm sure. Ever heard of Hunter's Point (SF), East Palo Alto, Oakland, Richmond CA?? Survived those towns just fine without a gun!
