And when the money you object to going to the government is stolen, don't ask anyone to help you get it back. Defend yourself from a violent gang, dimwit.
Sorry bud...you lost me in your attempt to trivialize a very simple issue.
I think you're saying we must continue to pay off the scum of society to keep them from becoming violent and rebelling against the hard working people among us? Am I right?
Do you have anything based in reality to back this up, or is it just like your OP, all opinion?
I feel like a bit of a broken record...while the percentages I throw around may not be scientific...there is nothing opinionated about the epidemic of who and what our problems are. All you have to do is de-program and be willing to apply logic to see it. Let me spell this out again for the elementary.
Watch your local news and pay attention. Drive through the growing and decaying ghetto neighborhoods around you and pay attention to who the residents are.
Look at prison occupancy demographics
Welfare demographics
Section 8 housing demographics
Free health care demographics
ObamaCare demographics
Teen pregnancy demographics
Drug smuggling demographics
There is a HUGE common denominator here...these people are killing us on so many levels. Pull your head out of the sand and see it for what it really is...this is so SIMPLE!

No, I wasn't. It seems you've been on the hatred of government bandwagon so long you've forgotten it's government that protects you from gangs who forcibly steal from you. But I suppose you regard government as a gang so I still suspect you won't get it.
The point is, without the strength of government, you're a vulnerable sitting duck to any gang that wants to knock you down and take ALL of your stuff.
You should be thankful the government takes a portion of your wealth to make it possible for the organized defense of your personal vulnerabilities.
It seems extremely hypocritical of you to expect the government to defend your vulnerabilities while you try to deny the protection of the government for the vulnerabilities of others.

I'm still lost...it seems you've confused this thread with another.
I don't recall saying I have a problem with paying MY FAIR SHARE to Uncle Sam...in fact, contrary to your wild assumption I'm all for money being spent on defense.
I'm trying to get into your head a little because you're having a problem coming across clearly...are you saying that "welfare / public assistance" funding is in fact part of defense funds? Unless I'm an idiot it sounds like you're saying that if the government were to cut off the low-lifes from using taxpayer money to afford more babies then I'd be open for attack by the desperate? Please no cloudy rhetoric...I want to understand your clearly.

At least you could be a man about it, since it's an anonymous message board.
I really don't care either way, your complaining or whatever isn't doing anything to change it. Hot air.
I'm pretty sure I've been real clear about who and what I'm talking about.
And, I'm not trying to change the world here bud...I'm here for the entertainment value...nothing more. I come here to read and remind myself of just how many blind and ignorant people I'm surrounded by...it makes me feel smart.
