as much if..? they lost thier jobs and had to rely on the gov for food, healthcare and housing assistance?
to patrick- what would you eat and where would you live while looking for another job?
I agree that some people are moochers, but I believe the majority really need help. Not everyone has savings to live on, even temporairly. And it might be hard for a widowed mother with 2 kids who just lost her house to go looking for another job or even sell fruit on the street.
 
It's because of government regulation and taxation that I've lost my job. Is it you're desire that I cease looking for work and spend my days playing video games and just leeching off of other workers? Because that would be really really easy to do.
 
I've worked at McDonald's rather than file for unemployment. No waiting week. It kept me going until I could sell insurance and that door to door kept me going until I found a good agency. I'm not too proud to start at the bottom.
 
The difference is.... If I lost my job, I wouldn't rely on the government. I would look for another job even if it meant a cut in pay and work my way back to my position.

I don't need the government to help me. I'm sorry to hear that you rely so much on the government. You really should try to break those bonds.

Edit: I would live in my home that is paid for because I budgeted my money while employed and paid of my mortgage early and I would eat my food that I paid for with my savings.

It's called planning. Something liberals have never been good at. The "If I lose my job there is always unemployment" and "When unemployment runs out, there is always welfare" mentality is definitely a liberal mindset.
 
Eric E, yeah, there called, Mommy & Daddy. You people find more ways to say you would never take government assistance. But when it comes right down to the nuts & bolts, you would take help from the devil to feed and doctor your kids if they fell ill, and you know it.
 
I'd still complain cause the government is what caused me to loose my job. As for getting help from them it wouldn't even begin to cover my expenses and I'm the one who was paying for this help to begin with!
 
My husband lost his job about 4 years ago and he was too proud to apply for unemployment. We lived on our savings and we did everything we could to make it on our own and never took a dime from anyone else.
He started his own business, times were tough but we made it and we are doing OK.
When the going gets tough, the tough get going. We got going.
I think there is nothing wrong with temporary help, but people need to not expect life long handouts.
We work VERY hard for what we have and we deserve to keep it.
By the way, we are not rich and not in that income bracket that Obama says will be taxed more. But, I firmly believe those what work hard deserve what they have earned.
 
Those who do the most complaining are usually the one who get the most from the government. I have never met a Republican that wasn't on welfare in one way or another.
 
The government has nothing and never did. Every penny in real wealth (products and resources) comes from citizens and always will. The citizens own everything. The government is just office buildings with frauds, embezzlers, and extortionists in them. If we citizens don't make it, it isn't there. if we citizens don't pay for it, it isn't bought.

Stop being thumb-sucking spoiled and sheltered little children in adult bodies. Stop being tax-slaves. The frauds in government can't protect you. That's just a scam so you will hold your pockets open. Their police and courts are hear only so the vigilance committees and posses won't be. They just provide a finer and more accurate form of justice than the posses and lynch mobs do.
 
Not at all. We, or many of us, would stand up and learn to be self sufficient, as many are already doing. I have been in tough spots like that and have NEVER asked the government for a dime or help. Those programs are designed for those that cannot be self sufficient due to health or other legitimate issues. Too many are on it because they are just lazy and want to put there hand out.

Look at our ancestors during the depression. They took care of business, without asking Uncle Sam for a hand out. My own mother was only 10 years old and baby sat and sold fresh fruit on the street to help support the family. The WWII generation is often called the Greatest Generation for a reason!
 
You should realize that "too much gov" is in fault for the loss of jobs and other economical disasters. In a free-market system, such as Hong Kong, things flow beautifully and it never gets out of control.
 
The people who are complaining the loudest are the sort who build businesses that employ Americans and produce goods to sell abroad.

The crushing government control is putting America out of business. That is why our nation is going bankrupt and so many people are losing their jobs.

The Marxist agenda is to wreck a Capitalist economy from the inside to seize "Socialist" control.
