So many of the teabag geniuses that routinely post their vile h**e and stupidity about a variety of subjects they nothing about, probably will complain about the source, a very rightwingnut rag.

All of the major players mentioned, reagan, ginrich, thompson and bush, were instrumental in screwing the taxpayer and benefitting big business like Walmart and McDonald's.
Only the very stupid fail to realize low wages require more social programs.
Yet these same i***ts will cry and whine and handwring and soil their depends, whenever the debt and deficit is mentioned as being driven by so-called entitlements.

The "haves" become livid when it's even suggested that the " have nots " are that way because the " haves " are taking an inordinate amount of available wealth. They pay lip service to helping the needy but refuse to believe that they need to contribute. I say often, the rich do not steal from the rich.

Whose the one filled with "vile h**e"?

The vile h**ers.

i guess we could look at this another way. If we get rid of welfare then employers will have to raise wages.

I am scared to disagree, BoJester, because of the mean names you called me. Your tactic to win by intimidation worked.

OldSchool Loc: Moving to the Red State of Utah soon!

Typical distorted logic by a mentally r****ded liberal! Just what I would expect from the mentally handicapped such as BoPoopsie. Does the asylum staff know that you're on the computer?

The plan isn't working because nobody realized Obama would only create part time jobs. In fact 80% of the jobs he created are part timers

Don't count on that.

Now Obama is hiring for fast food places?

I think that much of what you save isn't too bad.

But you are really reaching with this one.

VladimirPee

Obama policies are contributing to part time hiring due to ACA requirements of Healthcare for those over 30 Hours. Not such a reach

You should realize that low wages, decent wages, and even high wages are all within an agreement between a private business and its employees. They are part of this thing called a free market.
To state that "low wages require more social programs" is assuming that the government can fix something which is not broken. If people can not live on what their employer is willing to pay them for what they are doing, there are a few options. Talking to the employer about a raise, going back to school so they can do better work for a better pay, and find a better paying employer are all options in a free market.
The non Constitutional handouts you refer to as "so-called entitlements" are just another example of "fixing something that ain't broken" and how having an entity, such as the Feds, keep on "fixing" something makes the situation worse.
And how and why did the Federal Reserve get the ability to print money that is not backed by gold or silver? (making our money less valuable and causing inflation)
The less the government does, the better off we all are. Of course Republican ideas don't work, but neither do Democratic ideas, they are both part of the establishment that the v**ers, who are afraid of true change, keep on putting back into office. Even if this country is still around, our children and grand children will still be paying for the debt the establishment has put U.S. into (for their own individual power and monetary gain).

Well you know. Obama counts on a lot of things that won't happen to get the health care going. Obama counted on Employers to absorb a lot of health care cost to make it fly in stead of lowering working hours.

Seems he forgot to allow for what people would actually do, not what he wanted them to do.

I seriously don't believe Obama had any altruistic motivation for pushing this dog with fleas bit of socialist legislation down the throats of the American people. He is not a man of the people as his kowtowing to Wall Street bigs bears more about his character than his lip service to the poor and working class. This was designed to be the train wreck that it is. Another vehicle sent to assist the collapse of the country. This is not about providing healthcare to those in need. It's all about agenda.

Very well put Will.

I'm still pissed off because they classify Social Security and Welfare under the same classification as "entitlements".

I personally don't consider Welfare to be an "entitlement", it's a hand up for a few and a hand out for the rest. :thumbup:
