The fact is that not everyone can get a high paying job and there will be poor people needing the help of the more fortunate. I make a good living and I am glad that my taxes go to helping these people!! You really should think of others more not jsut yourself and your ratass brood which I am sure you are raising to be as much a pox on this country as you are. You do not know what the founding fathers intended and nither do I. Nobody does because times change and saying you or Rush does know just makes you look like the fool you are.
You want to know what happens without the social programs we have?? We get slums like Rio or Sao Palo. Then we get street childern (which we know you don't care about) living out of landfills. The street childern become live long criminals and then people start getting shot in the street for a $2 burger. We could always start up death squads like in Romania and Brazil which I am sure you would join right up..
Do you really think that you can live in the nice area you do without the help of the government?

If you want socialism so bad, go to China. This IS a deocracy. My god, when will people see that if you stop giving handouts, people HAVE to work for their money, thus creating a sense of responsibility. If you get rid of all the illegal immagrants we now have a ton of jobs for the less fortunate to do and make a living.
Socialism is not progession but rather regression. It takes away the responsibility of the people. This is democracy. I have the power to vote people or myself into office who will sepend my tax dollars the way I would.
The minimum wage was NEVER intended to support a family on. It was a guarantee that you would not be worked to death for pennies.
Just because I feel this way, does not mean all social programs are bad. We need them, but the way they are run needs to change. If we reward people for hard work and finding a job instead of having more kids and staying unemployed, we may have more social progression in this country.
