Fact on food stamps:
The state forces people to provide goods and services to others w/o compensation, creating a condition of state-enforced involuntary servitude.
So a party that has controlled only one of the three bodies that is involved in lawmaking can control a party that has control of 2 of them? Typical Liberal excuses. People like you that are good for excuses are good for nothing else.
So you don't know how Gov't works? I'm NOT surprised. In the Senate a minority can block things fairly easily, as the GOP has done
The minority party doesn't have to block anything when the son of a bitch Reid doesn't bring things up for vote the majority in the House sends him. He does that and butt puppets like you call it something it isn't. Keep puckering up to the Democrat ass boy.
Got it, false premises, distortions and lies are ALL you have
Timeline of Republican Obstruction
A Tick-Tock of House Republican Obstruction Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi
Let’s just say it: The Republicans are the problem.
We have been studying Washington politics and Congress for more than 40 years, and never have we seen them this dysfunctional. In our past writings, we have criticized both parties when we believed it was warranted. Today, however, we have no choice but to acknowledge that the core of the problem lies with the Republican Party.
The GOP has become an insurgent outlier in American politics. It is ideologically extreme; scornful of compromise; unmoved by conventional understanding of facts, evidence and science; and dismissive of the legitimacy of its political opposition.
When one party moves this far from the mainstream, it makes it nearly impossible for the political system to deal constructively with the country’s challenges.
“Both sides do it” or “There is plenty of blame to go around” are the traditional refuges for an American news media intent on proving its lack of bias, while political scientists prefer generality and neutrality when discussing partisan polarization. Many self-styled bipartisan groups, in their search for common ground, propose solutions that move both sides to the center, a strategy that is simply untenable when one side is so far out of reach.
It is clear that the center of gravity in the Republican Party has shifted sharply to the right. Its once-legendary moderate and center-right legislators in the House and the Senate — think Bob Michel, Mickey Edwards, John Danforth, Chuck Hagel — are virtually extinct.

More excuses from you.
Facts and real data have ZERO effect on 20% of US who 'believe in' conservative/libertarian ideology. It's ALL about feelings and ideology for them
Fact on food stamps:
The state forces people to provide goods and services to others w/o compensation, creating a condition of state-enforced involuntary servitude.
Well we could look like any other 3rd world nation like the conservatives/libertarians WANT US to look like, with their myths and fairy tales instead?
But yes, I agree when Dubya went to war on false premises, I felt the same way!
You fail to take into account all the regulations on business and requirements that costs them outside of taxes. It adds up but I suspect you can't add that high.
Misrepresentations, Regulations and Jobs
By Bruce Bartlett
Bruce Bartlett held senior policy roles in the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations and served on the staffs of Representatives Jack Kemp and Ron Paul.
Republicans favor tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations, but these had no stimulative effect during the George W. Bush administration and there is no reason to believe that more of them will have any today. And the Republicans’ oft-stated concern for the deficit makes tax cuts a hard sell.
These constraints have led Republicans to embrace the idea that government regulation is the principal factor holding back employment. They assert that Barack Obama has unleashed a tidal wave of new regulations, which has created uncertainty among businesses and prevents them from investing and hiring.
No hard evidence is offered for this claim; it is simply asserted as self-evident and repeated endlessly throughout the conservative echo chamber.
. As one can see, the number of layoffs nationwide caused by government regulation is minuscule and shows no evidence of getting worse during the Obama administration. Lack of demand for business products and services is vastly more important.
These results are supported by surveys. During June and July, Small Business Majority asked 1,257 small-business owners to name the two biggest problems they face. Only 13 percent listed government regulation as one of them. Almost half said their biggest problem was uncertainty about the future course of the economy — another way of saying a lack of customers and sales.
The Wall Street Journal’s July survey of business economists found, “The main reason U.S. companies are reluctant to step up hiring is scant demand, rather than uncertainty over government policies, according to a majority of economists.”
In August, McClatchy Newspapers canvassed small businesses, asking them if regulation was a big problem. It could find no evidence that this was the case.
“None of the business owners complained about regulation in their particular industries, and most seemed to welcome it,” McClatchy reported. “Some pointed to the lack of regulation in mortgage lending as a principal cause of the financial crisis that brought about the Great Recession of 2007-9 and its grim aftermath.”
The latest monthly survey of its members by the National Federation of Independent Business shows that poor sales are far and away their biggest problem. While concerns about regulation have risen during the Obama administration, they are about the same now as they were during Ronald Reagan’s administration, according to an analysis of the federation’s data by the Economic Policy Institute.
Academic research has also failed to find evidence that regulation is a significant factor in unemployment. In a blog post on Sept. 5, Jay Livingston, a sociologist at Montclair State University, hypothesized that if regulation were a major problem it would show up in the unemployment rates of industries where regulation has been increasing: the financial sector, medical care and mining/fuel extraction. He found that unemployment rates in these sectors were actually well below the national average. Unemployment is much higher in those industries that one would expect to suffer most from a lack of aggregate demand: construction, leisure and hospitality, business services, wholesale and retail trade, and durable goods.
Gary Burtless, an economist at the Brookings Institution, asserts that if businesses were really concerned about rising regulations, they would be investing now to avoid them. But there is no indication that this is the case. “The real reason for anemic investment and hiring is that businesses are not confident there will be enough potential customers to justify expansion or even routine capital replacement right now,” he says.
In my opinion, regulatory uncertainty is a canard invented by Republicans that allows them to use current economic problems to pursue an agenda supported by the business community year in and year out. In other words, it is a simple case of political opportunism, not a serious effort to deal with high unemployment.

I want the America back where people, regardless of color, didn't blame everyone or everything else for their problems and didn't demand someone give them something in life. That won't happen as long as people like you are willing to enable them to do so. You're the problem. The low lifes don't know better. You do.

Here's a source. I know you'll find some reason to ignore but even BJ Bill said what Bush did. The thing is when Bush does what the Democrats before him said needed to be done, he gets chastised. Had any Democrat done the same thing, people like you would be lining up to kiss their ass in gratitude. Pucker up.
