Regarding your 'point' that if you make no money, they give you money, well what exactly do you expect the people who have lost their jobs to live on ? I have no evidence to support this but I'd imagine that the majority of people that are receiving benefits have paid much more in than they are taking out. I don't recall any unemployed republicans refusing unemployment benefits either which they should do by your 'logic' and I use the word 'logic' loosely.




Now hang on one second, I wasn't talking about unemployment benefits. I was talking about welfare. What should the people that lost their jobs live on? NOT MY MONEY. They should slap themselves for not working hard enough, work harder, and shut the hell up. If you can't work hard enough to keep a job, you DESERVE to be on the streets digging through trash cans, waiting in soup lines.

About the taxes.. I really do believe that if democrats had their way, the top tax bracket would take over half of your paycheck, because you can "afford it". I think that's wrong, and I believe in a FLAT TAX.
