How much welfare do white people consume?

[Darkwind]

I'll ask again.

What programs has anyone introduced to the House or Senate that helps people return to living independent and productive lives?

 

[Luddly Neddite]

Easy.

You change the eligibility standards.

And have even more children hungry. More vets and disabled and elderly hungry.

Exactly what I expected from you.

 

[CaféAuLait]

Whether its appalachia or the streets of chicago, it's equally deplorable and has nothing to do with race.

YEP. Race has NOTHING to do with being on the dole...it shouldn't be happening AT ALL...but Government has lost it's way thinking it's the arbiter of charity using forcibly gotten TAX PAYER dollars.

It has to cease.

How?

Millionaire rancher Bundy has been on welfare his entire life. He and his family, going back generations, have never paid fair market value for the land they use and instead, we taxpayers subsidize them with our taxes.

How do we change that?

How do we get children and the elderly and disabled and vets off food stamps?

How do we get Repubs to stop obstructing job's bills?

And, all the rest that you rw's KNOW and refuse to acknowledge and deal with.

Millionaire, I keep seeing that said. Has anyone seen his bottom line yet?

Earlier in another thread someone was saying he lived with his mom and she helped him, which made him and even bigger fraud.

So which it is, is he a millionaire or some guy needing his mom to bail him out and help him financially.

The public has to take care of the public because the private sector is selfish and greedy.

The government that the Founders created enforced slavery.

They HAVE TO by gubmint FIAT Gracie? Can you tell the rest of the class where that edict resides in the rule of LAW meaning the US Constitution?

WHERE did the Founders state that?

Chapter and verse bucko...and as an added bonus? IF you cite "The GENERAL WELFARE CLAUSE"? I will be very disappointed in you and will school YOU further.

YOUR TURN.

Gets really tiresome that some rw's hide behind the "founding fathers yammer yammer".

How about we move into the 21 century? How about we deal with the real world as it is right now today?

Creating dependency on the government is the real world and it is contrary to the founding and principles of this country. Are you even aware of the number of monstrous things done throughout history in the name of the 'common good'?

Maybe you should use google for something other than self validation.

IF they were taught self seficiency, they would not go hungry at the whim of a politician, or depend upon a government for their very lives.

Rule of thumb is that lefties are horrible at math. It's all that social promotion in school.
This is about proportion. Blacks are about six times more likely to be on welfare than whites.

I'll ask again.

Nothing comes to mind.

I'll ask again.

What programs has anyone introduced to the House or Senate that helps people return to living independent and productive lives?

Zero. Anything submitted favours Government CONTROL while throwing a few crumbs to the people in order to appease them and keep the riots down to a minimum.

 

[Darkwind]

I'll ask again.

What programs has anyone introduced to the House or Senate that helps people return to living independent and productive lives?

Nothing comes to mind.

Exactly. So, how is anyone in government helping anyone? Where is this so-called 'compassion'.

 

[The T]

I'll ask again.

What programs has anyone introduced to the House or Senate that helps people return to living independent and productive lives?

NONE. ALL favour Government and their control over it. Liberty of the individual takes a back seat. Just like Obama told the republicans...you're welcome to ride along but YOU have to sit IN the back...

 

[JakeStarkey]

We either spend on the front end taking care and educating people and their children, or we pay more for it on the back with prison.

Welfare in America only goes to the very dirt poor. Here are the FACTS on food stamps.

The average household income of SNAP recipients is $744 a MONTH.

The average SNAP recipient receives $133 a MONTH.

76% of households receiving SNAP have at least one dependent living in the household.

Yeah cite and link that study.

It's all right here. And no, per household income is total household income. Math isn't hard.

There not but it sure sounds good especially in a election year.

WHERE do PARENTS, their MORALS and character fit into this puzzle FAKEY? WHY does government have to presume their role?

NICE TRY...

ROVE is part of the Repubican machinery...and IS part of the problem as well.

Another PARTISAN FAIL

We are dumb ass, we cite the Constitution, right now, as it is TODAY. Don't like it, see Article 5.

The word *hunger* in this country has no meaning.

People who are at 185 percent of the federal poverty level are eligible for foodstamps. That's where the adults in the household make almost 2x the federal min wage x 40 hours per week.

That is NOT dirt poor.

And look at the photos of the so-called POOR....some of them have had quite a time at the public trough taking more than their share.

POVERTY in this nation means SQUAT.
