As a FYI the income is in fact recovering fine....for those at the top.
So you agree it is a mistake to financially incentivize the over-reproduction of the welfare-dependent class.

So apparently the majority CAN in fact do these simple things you claim they can't. What they cant do is apparently make enough money.....maybe because minimum wage is too darn low?
Don't you get it? Dems, telling the world you helpless and not too smart. Aaah, the bigotry of low expectations. If it's too hard for poor folk to get a voter ID how in the hell can they apply for jobs and go to work 5 days a week. And you claim the problem is lack of opportunity. Obviously when opportunity hits them in the face it's too hard for them to take it.

As I wait for an answer I ask another, Democrats claiming it's racist to require a voting ID would make the NAACP racist. They NAACP requires an ID to attend an NAACP conference.

Growth is happening to anyone that has money to invest.


Reread these two sentences.

Bwahahahaha. Nice attempt to overgeneralize what I say.

Look, I deal with reality. Reality is theres some truth in what you say, but its also not that simple, and even you would probably agree with me on that. Its complex, and the devil is often in the details.

what incentivizes it? Is it: money? (laughable really given what it takes to raise children, and the time limitations for welfare), ignorance? (you know, preaching the utterly failing abstinence ideas), or?

What solutions do you have is what I like to ask folks. You tend to give some thoughtful answers occasionally, so why dont you expound on a solution to the problem? Preferably not something like "shoot them down like dogs, or let them starve".

Still waiting for an answer lol. If it's too hard for poor folk to get a voter ID how in the hell can they apply for jobs and go to work 5 days a week. And you claim the problem is lack of opportunity. Obviously when opportunity hits them in the face it's too hard for them to take it.
Irrelevant.

A voting restriction is a voting restriction. The very nature of such is unconstitutional. Period.

Because the solution is to give raises to those working low wage jobs on welfare. They are disproportionately brown and black. "We can't let the browns and blacks have health insurance, decent wages, and a middle class lifestyle on my dime!"

Yes, this is a racial issue. Most welfare recipients are white. Most welfare recipients are either old or somewhere in appalachia.. but working class whites are fed the garbage that their hard earned tax dollars are being given to brown / blacks to take over the country. Resentment at its finest.

And why do you keep trying to go one about the naacp and racism comments, none of thats been discussed here by anyone but you. Or is that another way to yet again change the topic?

I gave you an answer, apparently almost 60% of those capable of working and on food stamps ARE working.

Do you have a issue comprehending my answer that proved its clearly not an issue for the majority? Or are you sitting there covering your eyes saying "I didn't read the response, so it doesn't exist!"?

When they grew up they wanted to be a Walmart or McD worker. Yea, Walmart, they'll be able to live the good life working at Walmart.

Think people, think... poor choices and not thinking and planning for the future lands you at Walmart and McD's

So, I suppose you are in favor of voting precincts allowing anyone to vote? I should be able to walk into a voting place and say, "I'm here to vote" and they just provide me a ballot?

That would make for an interesting election when buses take people from voting site to voting site to stuff ballot boxes.

Yeah, that would be a great system.
