I can give a example of you stealing from me by getting the benefit of things I disagree with, without being willing to pay for them.
What am I taking from you?

But the bottom line is, people who believe as you do completely refuse to accept reality as I see it. I dont think anything will convince you otherwise. As such, lets agree to disagree on this.
No, I don't consent to merely disagree. So long as you believe it a moral duty to steal from me, I have a moral right and obligation to stop you.

If someone is stealing from you - call the police. File a report at least.

If you are talking about taxes, here is a great source of info about Federal spending. It breaks down where your taxes are going. Enjoy.

The 2009 (thanks Democrats) loosening of SNAP requirements created a back door to get the other welfare benefits just by qualifying for the greatly loosened SNAP criteria.

Come in for EBT and also leave with Medicaid, CHP, TANF, Lifeline, section 8, etc.

Democrats have nothing to offer besides government dependency and class warfare, so they chose this route.

Please. Go live in some other society if you cannot abide by this one. Your argument is foolish in the extreme. I feel no need to debate it with you. If you want to debate it, feel free to create a relevant topic.

Why no mention of the 2001, 2002, and 2007 farm bills?

No, YOU go to some society that believes in theft.

You have no right to steal from me. Period.

Translation: "I have no intellectually valid disagreement, so I'll just hate..."

Explain to me how taking my earnings to satisfy your wishes is not stealing.

So do Wall Street investment bankers, but they are all allowed to continue their deceptive activities and are actually reimbursed very well for it.

Welfare is to help folks. It's not human to be on it for 20+ years. Nobody can answer the question, how much is enough? 2,5,10,20,30, years? If you are on it for 10 years, you are like a slave in the mind. That is worse than shackles
