Increasing #'s on welfare has a cause. You're blaming the wrong people.

So let me get this right. It's the educated upper class that is driving the millions of those sitting at home collecting 400 a wk with 5 kids from making a solid living for themselves. Interesting persepective. Me, I tend to think that people these days have a complex that even in the most dire of circumstances feel they are too good for certain positions. Especially when you can sit at home and make more draining the country for 2yrs while you wait for that CEO job with a High School education. There is no shame anymore in being worthless.

Want to know why welfare is up so much? They've loosened the standards and are encouraging people the take it. Why? Because JP Morgan, who runs the EBT card program gets a cut, and it's astronomical how much money they're making. How did this happen? Lobbying Washington. Know why we went to EBT cards instead of the old actual food stamps? Bleeding heart liberals thought it was too demeaning and embarrassing for those on them (duh, motivation to get off the program). Now it's rife with abuse and corruption.

Until politicians have term limits (and thus motivation to do whats right, vice incentive to do what will get them reelected), problems like this will always be systemic. They all disgust me, however demonizing the rich for stacking the deck in their favor? Well they're playing by the rules so to speak. Want to even the playing field, then yank that carpet out from under them.

You raise a question though with your constant rants about how over paid corporate execs are.... how much do you think they should make in a free-market economy? How do you see limitations being put in place to make it "fair" yet keep competition and the free market working?

This we can agree on. "Rants" may be a little harsh.

Also agree. I'm a libertarian. Try and at least spell check in your blind rage. :beer:
