Strawman....If most of those people on the public dole would actually vote they would blow away Democrat opposition every time..Fact of the matter is your side depends on low voter turnout.

yeah I have noted for years the FDR administration was very machiavellian. They started the process to create a permanent class of teat sucklers who would always vote Democrat. Good for the DNC-really bad for the USA. but we know one thing-the DNC doesn't want people to climb out of dependency and poverty because that would doom the Democrat party to extinction. The party requires lots of children who need their big brother to take care of them
 
It sounds like you have a lot of internalized white privilege and racism inside of you

Again with the racism. You really have a problem. Have you ever thought of getting some help?
 
Heh!

Every generation thinks that their ideas are the best and most "forward thinking". Eventually they figure out that what they are trying isn't really anything new and that it's failed many times before.

There has always been the battle between wisdom and the believed new ideas of youth. The ideas are usually only new to those who have not been around long enough to have seen it before.
 
How vicious.

Unfortunately the facts are the facts. The single mom with children collecting is becoming a way of life in this country instead of responsibility. I know grandmothers who are on welfare with children that are on welfare with a child that is pregnant. It has become a way of life.

Yep. Thousands of years ago the Greeks had a story about a kid named Icarus and his father, Daedalus. I wasn't around for the original telling but my guess is that they didn't just pull the idea out of thin air.

You have it backwards. First came poverty, then came the humane hand of government assistance. It's a higher order society which helps it's weakest members. Poverty has existed since antiquity. Our country has overcome the draconian survival of the fittest model of existence which has dominated human culture since the beginning. Good for the USA and good for all people, except the very selfish amongst us.
 
God forbid people need help.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with a helping hand when you need one, that's why we have a social welfare system, to catch people when they fall. Unfortunately, the system keeps them down and stops them from getting back on their own two feet again. In fact, it tells them that it isn't their fault and everyone else owes them a living from here on out. That's the problem. Help should be temporary, not a lifetime of entitlements.

I just don't think most of the democrat party elite are all that altruistic. Most of them are power hungry scum who get rich through government office. They aren't about lifting people out of poverty but keeping them dependent and voting Democrat. The poverty pimps are exactly the same as pushers.

what is also funny is that liberal elites are far less likely to actually give to real charities compared to rich conservatives. When Liberal elitists give its generally to think tanks that advocate more socialism and Democrat party solutions to poverty

The majority of welfare states in the union are red states. It's Official: The States With The Highest Numbers of Welfare Recipients are GOP-Controlled RED STATES! Americans Against the Tea Party

How do you deal with the fact that welfare queens overwhelmingly vote Republican?

that's because of things you don't understand. Retirees move south and they are counted as "welfare" since they are on social security. Military bases are generally in red states too

welfare queens don't vote GOP

and BTW which party caters to those dependent on the government teat

Nope, the map and data shown in the link I posted is about food stamps, not military spending or social security.

Lol...has it ?? How do you help the impoverished by keeping them impoverished ? By telling them that they're they're victims or that the cards are stacked against them and their only hope is to vote Democrat ?

Exploitation for Political purposes is what's selfish

why do HS dropouts invariably support the Dems? and remind me-which party caters to the anti rich envy?

Poverty pimp politicians like many wealthy dems are no different than pushers

Good pushers are loved by their addicts. I remember when the biggest supplier of blow was being prosecuted in the SD of Ohio, the court room was packed with his customers and when he got Life (President Obama commuted it-a move I agree with), the teeth gnashing and lamentations of his flock was unreal

Most HS dropouts I saw around the Fort Leonard Wood and Fort Bragg areas supported the GOP

And I love it how you still haven't addressed the fact that most of the nation's welfare goes to red states.

It's not that old whites are dying off so much as they are not being replaced fast enough. Far too many from the failed third world coming here and having many, many babies. This includes muslims of course, who have no intention of assimilating. Lotsa luck thinking that a bunch of third worlders, most of whom have many needs and little to offer, are anywhere near equal to the white Europeans who made America great.

Actually, the most developed countries in the world today are made up of people of color. The UAE, Qatar, China, etc.

you ought to actually learn to do some research-you would find that every year that polling has been available, the least educated cohort has always favored the Democrats

and you forget that red states have lots of blue voters. do you think us in the top one percent tax bracket (we pay 40% of the federal income taxes and almost all the federal and state death taxes) favor the GOP or the DEMS.

if you are right then Romney's comment about the 47% shouldn't have hurt him

depends how you define "developed" China is pretty backwards when it comes to human rights.

Red states don't have blue voters. That's why they are red states. Just deal with the fact that the majority of this nation's welfare goes to red states.

The police there is unarmed. There is no discrimination against people of color. The citizens of China are safe from gun violence. They have free healthcare, education, and transportation. The worker in the USA would envy the worker in China, if most US citizens weren't so brainwashed.
