well *I* deserve my social security and medicare (I dont really get food stamps. I just made that part up) but then I dunno if social security counts as a welfare entitlement since you pay into it all your life before getting it. maybe it is, maybe not, I dunno SS--the gov spent all that you put in--but take it anyway--you worked for it!!!

Although a lot of different meanings are thrown around the welfare state actually referres to the government's role in caring for all of the citizens in this country. References to this information include: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welfare_state http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-the-welfare-state.htm The welfare state provides education, housing, sustenance, healthcare, pensions, unemployment insurance, sick leave or time off due to injury, supplemental income in some cases, and equal wages through price and wage controls. It also provides for public transportation, childcare, social amenities such as public parks and libraries, as well as many other goods and services. Some of these items are paid for via government insurance programs while others are paid for by taxes. Most advanced nations are not true welfarewelfarewelfare states, although many provide at least some social services or entitlement programs. These goods and services are generally available only to certain people who meet eligibility requirements. However, those that meet the prerequisites are guaranteed -or entitled to- benefits as a right. This type of system is frequently referred to as a “safety net,” which is designed to help the most vulnerable. The welfarewelfarewelfare statestatestate is socialist in nature. It redistributes wealth by heavily taxing the middle and upper classes in order to provide goods and services for those seen as underprivileged. However, even countries that don’t typically subscribe to socialism offer at least some form of safety net, most of which continue to expand. One example is the United States, which according to many European countries, is found lacking when it comes to altruism in government. The truth is that the welfarewelfarewelfare statestatestate on a federal level is the antithesis of personal liberty, at least according to the U.S. Constitution, which enumerates specific powers granted to the federal government. The Tenth Amendment grants all other powers to the states, “or to the people.” This means that individual states should be in charge of their own welfarewelfarewelfare programs, rather than the central government. While some nations believe that creating a welfarewelfarewelfare statestatestate is the proper role of any central government, few have managed to create efficient systems. They are unable to provide equitably for all their citizens, often leaving those most in need with the least. Rationing of goods and services also becomes a major problem when too many people depend on the welfarewelfarewelfare statestatestate. All advanced societies view helping people who literally cannot help themselves as decent, humane, and necessary. Yet, another serious issue with the welfarewelfarewelfare statestatestate philosophy is that many people who are capable of caring for themselves have no motivation to improve their lives when they can depend on the government to provide for them. This often breeds resentment amongst those who do work when they are forced to pay for people who do not, via ever-increasing taxes. Such a system can fuel class warfare and prevent equality instead of obtaining it. The concept of the welfarewelfarewelfare statestatestate may appear to be a good model on paper. However, the reality of creating a truly equitable statestatestate has thus far been impossible to achieve. Hey someone read it all. I am shocked...lol Anyway a 100 percent welfare state would be impossible to acheive. We don't have one here. And will never have one. That's why we have the warfare State-to fund the welfare state.   (as the old saying goes, "War is a racket")
Found that out back in Vietnam----Ted kennedy opposed the war --but owned more then just a few shares of Sealand!! |

well that makes sense and also explains why some feel more entitled than others...amazing how everything can be justified. I am glad to have helped you understand. Could you explain 'why some feel more entitled than others'? Or give an example. One thing--if they dump it now--the country will crash faster then it all-ready is!!

Rep. Joe Wilson shouted "You lie!" after Obama denied that his health care proposal would cover illegal immigrants. He apologized in an interview and once to an Obama staffer for his behavior not for his view. Obama accepted the apology though it was not face to face. Now some want a formal apology. Why? What the hell is that going to accomplish accept to satisfy people that love the idea of public humiliation. A forced apology is as good as no apology, and distracts from the task at hand. Both sides of the isle do this and it's just unproductive and childish. Every damn news channel is wasting our time with something that should have been dropped the very next day. ugh [/quote It's rooted in dialectics. It keeps the stupid masses from noticing that the government is ripping them off. 
They have been doing this for generations---the masses will never get it-- Thats the point of dialestics- |

So we should just sit back and let congress do as it pleases because we have a black president. I still have yet to see a plan from Obama. They are all coming from congress and that's what the people are protesting not the fact that Obama's black. It's the Dem members of congress that are making a racial issue out of this because the people are strongly against what they want to do to our country. It wouldn't matter what race the president is. I know this will fall upon deaf ears because some only believe what the likes of Olberman and Maddow say 
I like what you said here--

"I've got the breath of the last cigarette on my teeth..." Love, what is it to you? To me it is the understanding that no matter the choice the one you love makes, you support it regardless. Which is why I don't think love exists, mainly because as human of a feeling as it could be we always have a tendency to want "better" for someone. Now I'm not talking about a person that simply doesn't take care of themselves, I'm talking more about personal decisions they make based on how they feel at the time. The one thing I can come up with is suicide, no one wants someone to take their life...but someone that loves someone won't try to stop them from making the decision. Which is another thing I may never understand about love as most people see it, why...why change the person you fell in love with? Turn them into someone that they don't want to be? All in the name of "better". Better for who? The one thing I can come up with is suicide, no one wants someone to take their life...but someone that loves someone won't try to stop them from making the decision. Where did this idea come from? It is a very warped thought. Sorry. It is scary warped. And the statement that you would support whatever choice they make??? Where are these thoughts coming from? Were you taught to think this way? I don't mean to come down on you, but WTF??? 
Thank you--stated just right!!
