    You do realize that most welfare money is spent on the elderly right? And most of it is spent on health care?

    Are the sick and old who you have a problem with?

    BTW sorry if I assumed wrong about your stance on abortion... but people like you usually follow the party line and do not come up with ideas on your own

    We should create concentration camps for people on welfare, force them to work for their food, this could solve the labor cost issue in this country and bring back all the jobs! Ya, that should do the trick.:eek:

    The people who have the most disdain for the poor are usually just one step above poverty themselves.

    I didn't say it couldn't, but it should be avoided. Like all the other rules in the English language, it can be broken if you know what you're doing. The OP- as you can read for yourself- does not.

    The solution is easy.

    Go super harsh on the upper class.

    Done.

    This.
    Heard someone say once that people always need to be one step ahead of somebody and they'll do whatever it takes to stay off the bottom rung of the ladder.

    GOP voter’s suppression laws, the treatment of welfare recipients as parasites and losers of society, the way Ryan’s budget guts entitlement programs, all would suggest you are wrong.

    Incorrect. If you include the title as a "sentence," he wrote 5 sentences. There were misspellings in two of them, and incorrect grammar in 1.

    Thus, his post is 2/5 misspelling, 1/5 incorrect grammar, 5/5 garbage. Yes, 5/5 because garbage is a superset of misspellings and poor grammar.

    (actually, I rather like his motivation and point, though)

    Seriously

    You have priests and nuns b****slapping Romny and Ryan on their stance on the poor and calling them out on the issues saying they are immoral.

    a person on welfare is by definition a parasite. By your logic, everyone has disdain for welfare recipients.

    no, it suggests we have huge amounts of debt. Which we do.

    Do soccer mom and stay home dads counted as parasites?

    By the way, there are so many insecure people on this board, because they nitpicked some obvious typos to feel superior, lol, not that anyone should misspell any much as possible.

    Okay, we have a 100% match to BrianKagy now. Busted. That is just too contrived to be real.
