The best way to convince people how to vote is to make an allegation supported by evidence, not repeating hackneyed biases and the talking points parroted over and over on this forum; it requires facts, ideas and potential solutions to the usual ain't it awful whine.
Calling people lazy and thieves may give you a feeling of superiority but it is a false belief. People who are under the poverty line, in particular the working poor, are not lazy and not miscreants; many are exploited by miscreants and scofflaws who own small businesses.
Traditionally if you are the working poor in America it is either because you are just starting out in life or that you made bad choices. We do have millions of Americans that make bad choices in life and then use the welfare system to bail them out. If they would put down their bong and pull up their pants maybe they could find and keep a job rather than living off the sweat of working Americans.
However, that aside, there has been a significant decline in the economy since Obama has been President (even two year earlier with the election of the 2006 Democrat Congress) and that is making it more difficult for Americans to get ahead.
If you want facts then how about this? The combined cost of government (fed, state and local) is over 40% of the GNP. According to the CIA Factbook the US spends more money on the cost of government than all but the total GNP of one other country on earth. That is a big drag on the real job producing economy. We also have the most debt, by far.
You look at almost any family in America regardless of income and the total cost of government is usually the largest single family expense when you look at everything, even if they don't pay income taxes. In my family my wife's salary usually went to pay the taxes for the year. How can any family get ahead when the cost of government is that high? That is the real cost of the filthy ass welfare state.
If the stupid Liberals would worry a little more about stimulating capitalism so jobs could be created instead of redistributing wealth and income the economy would be booming. The economy does not grow by taking money that has already been earned and giving it away to somebody that didn't earn the money. The economy grows when capital is created and profits are made, something Libtards have a very difficult time understanding.
