Does it not bother you that these poor people will turn down undesirable jobs because they are too good to do certain jobs or too lazy to do a job. It's easier to sit back and accept a check for a huge portion of these people. Most of them are no better then you're common thief. Stop having kids until you are ready. If you need help, seek charity some people that are willing to give. Do not seek in my pockets. It's really that simple.

I so agree with you. The liars in here (and you know who you are) keep stereotyyping conservatives as haters of the poor when that is completely false. It is about not wanting our pockets picked by welfare queens, lazy Americans that won't work and illegal aliens.

He added 5 trillion to the debt in four years. 47 million on food stamps which is so wrong. No where in the constitution does it say the fedral government is every lazy person's guardian. So yes this country is going down the pit's because of commie obama!!
Well actually he got that title from Newt Gingrich who thought it would rally the conservative right and vote for him.

1) Obama hadn't changed SNAP eligibility. It's a need-based program that the President didn't decide to include more people. We have a weak economy and SNAP participation rises with unemployment. It decreases with employment. That should be obvious.

2) On your welfare claim, State governors asked the HHS to use their statutory authority to consider state waivers for welfare work requirements. The HHS granted that request.

3) On "adding $5 trillion in debt," the economy added that debt by reducing revenues and by automatic spending that occurs when unemployment rises. As proof it wasn't because of the "commie obama," the CBO projected a trillion dollar deficit two weeks before he was sworn in.

So basically, you hear talking point memes and repeat them as if they were facts. You really don't know what you are talking about.
