    Put me in charge . . .. Put me in charge of food stamps. I'd get rid of Lone Star cards; no cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho's, just money for 50-pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, then get a job. Put me in charge of Medicaid.. The first thing I'd do is to get women Norplant birth control implants or tubal ligations. Then, we'll test recipients for drugs, alcohol, and nicotine and document all tattoos and piercings. If you want to reproduce or use drugs, alcohol, smoke or get tats and piercings, then get a job. Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your "home" will be subject to inspections anytime and possessions will be inventoried. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and yourown place. In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a "government" job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22 inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the “common good.”Before you write that I've violated someone's rights, realize that all of the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules.. Before you say that this would be "demeaning" and ruin their "self esteem," consider that it wasn't that long ago that taking someone else's money for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self esteem. If we are expected to pay for other people's mistakes we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices. AND While you are on Gov’t subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving a Gov’t welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job.

    I take it you have had it!!!!! You would make an excellent Statesman (I do not use the word Politician as that word is a very ugly thing to say to anybody)
    I wonder if the nuts in D.C. understand the american people are way passed pissed off about their behavior at this time. Dems and Republicans both.
    TSC

    Ya got that right. ;)
    missactive

    Hmm TSC, (with respect) what you propose concerning birth control seems to verge on the theory/practice of eugenics. Also what about the people who fall by the wayside through illness and phyisical/mental disability, do they have the right to vote taken away? We live in a civilised society where the weak and vulnerable are supported. I understand your frustration with some benefits claimants, but if support was not universal how do you sort out the deserving from the non deserving?
    TSC

    Your correct, but too many UNDESERVING are screwing the rest of us.

    TSC , you racist biggeted pig, i love you. Violating people civil rights like that. Behind you 100 %. Just as long as you drug test people that receive any govt assistance. Go Giants, Manning needs to tear them up this week.

    I believe the age of ENTILEMENTS should end. The country is broke.


    Welfare and food stamps were meant to help less fortunate people get back on their feet. Its NOT to provide an income so they can bang out more kids to increase the amount of those GOVERMENT CHECKS.  More money has been pumped into inner cities in the last 45 years than you can imagine and these areas of the country ARE STILL dependant of Government assistance for the basics of life. A cesspool of "poor people" who expect the government to support them. 


    And ANOTHER THING, just because your neighbor makes more money than you do (unless your screwing Uncle Sam already) doesn't mean YOU have any right to divvy that money up so YOU can live a better life. My dad worked two jobs to support our family of 5 and never took a DIME from the government. The gravy train is OUT OF GRAVY.


    ENOUGHS ENOUGH

    My Cat is going to announce is run as a 3rd party candidate. Animal Planet, The Humane Society, SPCA, and Peta have already pledged their support.  He will prevent future US CATastrophes from happening!

    Well this seems to be a republican party "party".

    You sure gave me something to think about tsc. No more ding dongs. right on. all the powdered milk they can carry. good. good. i didn't realize that stuff happened. 

    Their about making the RICH RICHER (INDIVIDUALS AND BUSINESSES) and THEMSELVES, the POOR/MID CLASS PEOPLE DON"T MATTER OR EXIST TO THEM.

    TSC

    Right off the Democrat talking points memo.

    dad59 ..... hey ... I hear this crap all the time. You want the real truth ????? Most of the rich got rich by working their asses off. No just SITTING on them.

    How does one get poor in this country ???? Have TEN kids by the time your 25 ??????? And then need help from everyone. Drop out of school before you can count to five ??/ Only open a book when you're looking for toilet paper ????? Where do the rich get their money ???????? By TAXING the POOR ????? THE POOR DON'T PAY ANY INCOME TAX !!!! TAX BREAKS FOR THE RICH ??? WELL WHO THE HELL EARNED THE MONEY IN THE FIRST PLACE ??? HOW CAN YOU GIVE A TAX BREAK TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T PAY ANY INCOME TAX ????
    dad59

    pioneer2, I disagree, I've seen more poor people working their arses off and never getting anywhere and I've seen REPUBLICAN'S giving free rides/tax break's to the rich and large corps. and most get their money from the poor and illegal activity not from hard work most of them would be poor too if, they had to work hard for a living. The poor does pay taxes so, I'm not sure where you live but the poor/middle class pays the taxes for the rich and as far as having children, here in AMERICA we're FREE also if our REPUBLICAN OFFICIALS hadn't destroyed our economy/workforce there would be fewer dependent on government aid.

    Republicans have  the best interest of everyone in mind.   They  want the best for everyone.   BUT...  They want you to get off your BUTT and WORK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   Depend on YOURSELF.


    Don't have children at age 14.  YOU CAN'T AFFORD THEM.   GO  TO SCHOOL.  LEARN SOMETHING.,  KEEP YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR BUTT AND YOUR MIND OUT OF  ARKANSAS.   BE RESPONSIBLE.


    THEN YOU WON'T NEED TO LEAN ON SOMEONE ELSE TO PROVIDE FOR YOU.   NOT THE GOVERNMENT.    Who better to take care of you than YOU ????????  


    Some people are mentally  or physically in need of help.  HELP THEM.   The irresponsible..... GIVE THEM A SWIFT KICK IN THE ASS.    AND TELL THEM TO QUIT BITCHING AND BEGGING.

    IM GONNA GIVE IT TO YA STRAIGHT UP MAN THIS IS PROBABLY OFF TOPIC BUT MAKES SENSE IN A WAY EVERY PARTY OR POLITICIAN SAYS SOMETHING WHILE RUNNING FOR OFFICE AND EVENTUALLY SWITCHES HIS MIND. DEMOCRATS ARE KNOWN FOR HELPING POOR AND MIDDLE CLASS A COUPLE TAXES BUT AFFORDABLE (TO ME). REPUBLICANS ARE ABOUT BIG BUSINESS A LITTLE HISTORY FOR YOU MOSTLY ALL THE MONEY GOES TOWARDS THEM AND HAVE LITTLE CONTRIBUTION TO THIS COUNTRY

    pioneer2

    alexmut... You don't think the well off in this country got that way by working their asses off and the less well off got that way by spending too much time sitting on their asses and as a result the wealthy got wealthier and the less well off just got bigger asses ?????? If you'll open your eyes. The wealthier contribute much more to this country and its future than the less well off do. And thats just a fact.

    The republicans are the most important group on the planet to date.  That's why they get out & hire good Lobbyists to take care of all that needs doing-in order to keep their interests protected so that they & all others working for them can feed themselves. Without the republicans to take care of us & make all the righteous decisions about birthrate & religion. Where the heck would we be ? They are much more God like than any one else. They prove their undying love us every day. Sorry for anyone too much a dullard to clearly see that. :-)     Oh yes Superior in fact. Don't believe me-please just ask one.
