self centered because we believe people should not be on welfare for life and that we do not believe
in a nanny state?
Then create a different economic system if you don't want a nanny state, because capitalism has no national allegiance and will work against you in it's face to the bottom.

poor people dont create jobs. the wealthy do. Sorry you failed economics.
Sure they do. It's called supply and demand. The poor have to eat, be housed, and be fed, just like everyone else.
The fact that he thinks that could be a real conversation proves he is a lost cause on this issue. Some act like people on welfare get substantial amounts of money-it is meant to be supplemental and barely is that.
Corporate welfare, corporate bailouts, quantitative easing, foreign endeavors, and other policies written by the oligarch for the oligarch are the most substantial wastes by far and they are the true leeches. It always amazes me when people do not see this.
What do we have to show for the Corporate welfare? Republicans don't seem to have a problem with that do they? At least welfare recipients are spending the money in their communities.
No. Paraphrasing from a sermon I offered at church a couple of years ago.
But of course, for right-wingers, their religion is money so anything resembling actual human compassion and loving kindness would appear to them to be Marxism. Score another point for the right wing echo chamber.
A lot of hate and vitriol in that church sermon of yours.
Why don't right wingers just admit that it is all about money for them
Right ringers aren't the ones demanding money from other people.
It's the liberals and left wingers who do that.
So if it's all about money for anyone, it's all about money (other people's money) for liberals and left wingers.
Stop reaching into my pocket, thief! The world owes you nothing.

and that moral concepts such as humane consideration for others isn't any concern of theirs?
What is humane about liberal policies that create government dependency, destroy the family, create illegitimacy, scar our inner cities, encourage crime and civil unrest, and create a permanent underclass?
All done very deliberately in order to expand the Democratic voter base...

Why don't right wingers just admit that it is all about the comfort and luxury of the few for them?
It's all about comfort and luxury for those who have earned it. But it's also about other things, considering that conservatives are much more generous to charity than liberals.
BTW, when are you going to put your principles into action, and grab somebody else's hamburger while you're at a fast food restaurant?
Oh, you wouldn't do that? Why not?
How is it fair that they get to enjoy that hamburger all by themselves? Shouldn't they give you part of it? After all, they have the hamburger and you don't.
That isn't fair!

Millions of legal immigrants come to this country with hardly any money and manage to make it on their own. This is the land of opportunity for those who care to take advantage of it.

Could it be guilt? The right wing is so consistent and forceful about its indefensibly immoral perspective that it seems strange that guilt could motivate such silly rhetoric silliness on their part.
If you were a sophomore in college, I would give an A for B.S. and an F for content.

Mother: So little Johnny, what do you want to be when you grow up?
Little Johnny: I want to live off government handouts.
Wow, I never thought I would see the day when people act like it's something to be proud of to need other peoples money to survive.
After all the taxes I've paid, I'd sure like to get some of my money back!
