This socialist administration continues to squeeze billions of dollars in taxes from hard working middle class Americans so that they can provide goods and services for millions of people who are unwilling to take the steps necessary to provide for themselves. This same bunch allows members of congress to enrich themselves and their friends at the public trough.
Those who refuse to get an education, or refuse to be parents to their offspring, should not have access to the results of the hard work and discipline of of the good people of this still great country.
I am sick of the professional excuse makers and whiners whose expectations are so low that by their whining seek to legitimize the lack of action by the slackers. Welfare, in all it’s forms, should be reserved for those who absolutely cannot provide for themselves.
If the fact that you are poor is a result of your lack of effort, then so be it! You’ll forever be poor. Hard core? Maybe, but hunger is a great motivator and will do more to solve the problem than taking money from those who are already stressed (because of government meddling in the markets) and giving it to a group who are not worth the effort.
Government’s solution to our problems seems to be to sacrifice the many in a futile attempt to save the few. Classrooms and teachers are held hostage by the few bad apples that constantly create problems and rob decent students of the chance to learn without these distractions. Good teachers become frustrated to the point that they simply go with the flow dictated by the bureaucracy rather than use their considerable skills to teach attentive students.
Welfare programs that are designed to kill incentive and to keep in line a whole new block of voters who will elect those who will promise even more welfare are destructive to our great country. These programs need to be eliminated, not reformed.
Having said all that, I am firmly in favor of programs that are designed to help those who are making a genuine effort to work and better themselves and their children. That help should be based on need and should be withdrawn gradually as the recipient gains education and earning power, not eliminated totally at a point decided by another mindless bureaucrat.
Common sense can solve any problem we have. Common sense that demands effort and accountability. Common sense that knows when to sever the cord.
