Perchance- you personally contribute insufficiently.
Oddly; I've heard such rhetoric from several, coupled with grimace and frown shrieking about those who pay little or no taxes (the latter of which is impossible) yet those encroaching tip-of-the-spear tax brackets provid little in comparison to their capital.
Those situated at the base and the tip..pay taxes disproportionately less in contrast to the middle, yet most zero in on the former- freaking Cowards!
Very much a cowardice bully mentality.. pick on the easy opponent with blind eye toward the more formidable opponent packing a strong chin and powerful punch.
people who can't afford to buy their own food shouldn't be throwing money away on food delivery services unless they are elderly, disabled, or,more than 1/2 mile from a grocery store..
Who are you to determine what someone else should do with their own money?

People talk about helping the poor through charitable donations, but listening to the same people speak about the poor with such disdain and resentment, I find it had to believe they'd be willing to give them one penny voluntarily. They are more likely to give them a kick in the teeth than anything else.

Of course.
My point stands.
You think the people who brag about being so generous actually give to people they resent?
If you dont like the delivery service, then take it up with Herr Trump, whose government created it.
OK, If ancaps and those with similar ways of thinking are against welfare --- then pay people a living wage so you won't have to have "them" "steal" your "hard earned wealth"!! Because right now, as it is, its the taxpayers indirectly subsidizing the big companies and the wealthy - namely their labor and other personnel expenses. Economic freedom for the property owners but not for the non-property owners.
As for mediation, I guess enforcement of that mediation is only for the people who can afford to pay for their own cops-for-hire to go in and enforce it. If a poor owner can't afford the security to enforce the contract, then I suppose he's Sore Out Of Luck. What kind of economic freedom is that?
Everyone who works a full time job or two or more part-time jobs is paid a living wage. The mistake some are making is feeling entitled to live beyond their means.

Didn't read the article, did you?
1) How was I proven wrong? You didn't like what I revealed, as written about it the Washington Post, so you say it isn't true. Liberal tact: call people you disagree with "liars"
2) It's NOT their own money when they are getting food stamps! Any money they are spending on delivery fees could (and should) better go to food, which we are subsidizing.
Ex: I give my teen $25 a week, because she needs to buy school lunches. Instead, she spends $15 of that on cigarettes, and then complains to me that $25 a week for lunch isn't enough.
3) Not sure what article you are talking about? The WaPo article? Of COURSE I read it.
i think people are silly for regularly carrying home gobs of heavy shopping bags when they could have taken a shopping cart that will hold all that heavy stuff.
Most people in that circumstance would be using a cart (used to be called a "granny cart") to haul the groceries home. That's how it's done. To assume the groceries are carried all the way home is ridiculous. The carts are used for hauling clothes to and from the laundromat, as well. How do people not know this?

Your point doesn't stand. The only reason SOME people are forced to pay others' food, clothing, housing, and medical bills is because liberals won't step up to the plate and put their money where their mouths are and donate enough voluntarily to fund the cost of assistance programs. It's quite evident that not even liberals support such programs if they're expected to pay for them by choice.
And there we go with the Hitler reference. You guys are getting way too predicable.
That's what happens when you call them out on their lack of sufficient charitable giving while insisting others be forced to pay for their pet welfare programs.
