Why would a person who calls themselves "DoD Guy" post right wing threads about moochers.

Sounds like you are on the gubbermint teet yourself.

Excessive regulation and taxation in land use and housing, plus open borders and illegal immigration impose heavy costs on low-income workers, making housing unaffordable and home ownership impossible for many.

Because housing was so affordable and life was wonderful for low income workers before regulations and the policies you rail against.

OK. Starting with, if DoD Guy means Department of Defense Employee, what line of work will go into in order to free the rest of us from the confiscatory tax system that feeds you?

I like the idea, but I'm not willing to give up my government subsidized nuke gig just yet. So the short answer to the question why it can't be done is because there are so many more consumers than there are producers. As long as the consumers can keep electing those willing to confiscate from the producers and redistribute, we will never be free.

Dangit, you're right!

From now on I will provide for myself!

I will build my own roads, have my own fire and police departments, procure my own water and electricity...easy peasy!

What exactly does this have to do with race anyways? Last time I watched MTV's "Teen Mom" it was basically white teen girls getting knocked up and relying on WIC and Welafare programs!
