What Finn is doing is coming up with ridiculous examples that nobody gave - like Applebee’s or the Rib Rack - because his argument falls apart if he used the actual examples we are putting forth.
I disagree, Finn is obviously a person of great taste and character. To believe otherwise would be tantamount to accusing him(her) of being a callous elitist.
I didn't say anything about a high end phone "in the hands of an undeserving medicaid recipient." I'm not even talking about Medicaid recipients, so there's no need to spin what I'm saying.
I didn't say you said it. Another poster said it only few posts ago, not to mention that the iPhone claim has been repeated 100+ times on this thread.

That was actually Eastward who brought up the Medicaid person with the IPhone, and I CORRECTLY pointed out that someone on Medicaid has no business buying an expensive cell phone - and that is because I am effectively subsidizing her purchase of that phone by covering her medical expenses.
I love it when out of touch lefties try to pretend they know what it's like.
I've been poor. Very poor. I've been homeless. I know exactly what it's like to be that damn poor. And I could still, somehow, get by without a $1000 cell phone and organic food and any other such crap that people buy, and then turn around and complain that they don't have any money.
Any other nonsense, or do you want to admit you're wrong about that stupid phone?
nothing wrong with poor people having a phone...buy one for $99.......
