Giving away more "no strings attached" taxpayer money

I think it was Lonestar that posted this video the first time I saw it, but it's quite fitting for this thread.

YouTube - Obama Is Going To Pay For My Gas And Mortgage!!!

So what you did was make an incorrect characterization of an entire group of people as the basis for your argument. FAIL.

Want to start over and try to make an honest argument?

I guess if you want to call going from "the worst" to "one of the worst" an incorrect characterization and thus a victory fer you, go ahead.

Kinda like saying that they're not the biggest turds in the punchbowl, only the second or third biggest. Whatever floats your boat, though it does absolutely zero to disprove that those on welfare have extremely poor track records of managing their finances. Which was the whole point of the argument....but ya knew that already, didn't ya?

You set your entire argument up on the premise that welfare recipients are the worst managers of their finance, therefore, the last people we should help out with money. What we have discovered is that you are dead wrong, they are not the worst managers of their money, in fact, you haven't demonstrated that they are poor at managing money at all. We have demonstrated that the worst group of money managers appear to be students, then middle income people living beyond their means on credit. You have yet to show that people on welfare manage any money they have poorly. Just because they are on welfare does not mean they are poor money managers. It is equally reasonable to claim that people on welfare are excellent money managers, considering they survive on so little. Neither characterization can be confirmed solely on the grounds that they recieve welfare.

Your argument was based on a poor assumption from which you have back pedalled and now want to say they are the third worst managers of money. Which is it? Do you have any evidence to support this absurd and offensive assumption about an entire group of people? Or were you just blowing out your ass and assumming that everyone would swallow that tripe? Easy to get people to beleive bullshit about those dirty welfare people, isn't it?

Now, let's have any facts you can supply to show that what you have said has any truth to it what so ever.

Talking about talking out of your ass, you got nothin, huh? Other than you weally weally weally think that they manage their money well.

Whereas you are completely unable to refute the fact that if they are on welfare, they are poor managers of their finances due to past or current life choices.

Wishing that it weren't so, doesn't not make it so.

Kinda cute when you stamp your feet and pout though.

However, since people on welfare usually have the poorest track record of managing their financial situation, I doubt that little more than half go to school supplies. And I'm being generous.

Can you support this or not? Show us that people on welfare usually have the poorest track record of managing their financial situation. Can you? Or is that just a bunch of smoke you're blowing out of your ass?

Let's take it real slow, one part at a time. Show us the facts to support your statements.

Remember Sweet Willy who you are arguing with. Less than 6% of scientists will admit to being Republican. I bet it's the BOTTOM 6%. Where does that leave the rest of the party? Facts have a definite liberal bias.

Even after Bush publicly stated the Saddam had NOTHING to do with 9/11 and said his administration NEVER made such a suggestion, Republicans STILL believe Saddam was behind 9/11. Once they are tricked into believing something, they will never give it up.

Facts have a definite liberal bias.

And yet you presented none germane to this discussion. And was incorrect on two counts in your short statement.

Wonder why that is...

YAdda yadda.......do you have any facts or no? You made the claim, you based your argument on the premise and now you can't or won't support it.

I have demonstrated that welfare recipients are not the worst managers of their money. There may be reasons why we shouldn't have given them $200 for school spending but you can't seem to put your finger on anything except a vague feeling that you just have an aversion to poor people. Get used to it. There's a world full of them.
