With unemplyment down, wages up an you convince me it doesn't need to be cut? Why does it need to remain the same?
I'm assuming you haven't spent too much time in completely impoverished areas, right? Cause I've noticed the only time someone can be as callous as you is when s/he has either not faced the problem or really seen how big of a problem it is, or just doesn't have a soul, and since I'm assuming you have a soul, then the only other assumption is that you just haven't seen how awful it really is out there.
It's not suppose to serve the people who don't feed at the government trough?
Right, screw the people who can't take care of themselves, we need to focus more attention on those who can take care of themselves very capably, or at least are very skilled on living of their parents' money, those are the ones who we should focus our resources on. Of course, it makes perfect sense, that's why we're cutting welfare and not cutting oil subsidies in a year when oil companies made record profits, of course!
Was the amount that an individual recieves cut?
I'd assume so. Despite what neocons tell you, in some areas what you've got is what you've got, so if there's less money in welfare, one could only assume that the amount the individuals get will be cut.
The government already gives them money someone else earned.
Right, those bastard poor people! Maybe if they weren't so damn poor this wouldn't be a problem, considering we all know that there are an infinite amount of jobs paying the amount to make a living wage, enough so that everyone in the ghetto is just poor because they're lazy, and thus we should let them become homeless and starve to death, that'll teach them to stop being so damn lazy!
But you had a computer and the time to use while someone else was working to pay for your food. Someone who may not have had a computer nor the time to use it as they were working so hard.
Right, because the majority of tax revenue comes from the working poor:roll:
Dude, you can keep pretending that the current batch of conservatives actually cares about the working class, but when it comes down to it, you can beat up a little kid and tell them it's because you love them, but eventually they'll realize that you were just being a dick.
Why don't you donate more and get others to do that?
Right, with all of this money I'm bathing in.
BTW it didn't pass and in only effected families in states that had concocted extra genrous rules that allowed those families who would not qualify in other states because of thier income and savings to recieve them in these certain states.
I've noticed you like to use vague terms like extra generous, why is that?
