GOP Appalled By $80 Billion Cost In Food Stamps. To Them Too Many People Don't Want To Work

[TheMastersNemesis]

So they want to cut the program and blame the cost on so many takers. Besides the churched should be feeding these people.
With all these low paying jobs around people should not have to depend on government.

1. how much have we spent on the wars they wanted?

[jmowreader]

2. Not as much as they wanted

If the GOP had its way, we'd still be in Iraq.

4. YOU ARE SOOOOOOOOOOO CORRECT!!!

yup

[Live and Learn]

7. Exactly. And instead of taking personal responsibility and paying up,

they want to pay less themselves and have the poor pay for their lies. Asshats!

[Skittles]

8. I let NO ONE get away with using the term "fiscal conservative"

THEY WASTE OUR MONEY

10. Steal it, is the truth. Not to mention our ecological resources

and environmental well being. Chit, they are robbing us of our very existence.

[Skittles]

13. CORRECT

DAMN STRAIGHT

3. ..and they want to drug test the recepients

...and they want to ensure that none of the recepients are illegal aliens


I want to drug test defense contractors and farm subsidy recepients. I want to ensure that none of them employ illegal immigrants -- including in domestic capacity. And since the income tax is "unfair", we should go to what I think of as the "RealFairTax" -- National Property Tax. Let those who own America pay for it.

5. I want to drug test the folk who actually impact my life

DEFINITELY politicans

6. And wasn't it Republicans that inundated the country with drugs

so that they can now accuse people of being lazy and irresponsible for taking them?

9. They never have the right solution to a problem.

Isn't it obvious that if you want to reduce the cost of welfare that you decrease poverty, increase jobs, enforce a living wage, decrease healthcare costs, etc., etc., etc. But that is just too difficult a problem for their imbecilic minds. If they applied their logic to traffic engineering, they'd say the solution to too many cars on the road is to get rid of the roads.

But the problem isn't just that they are idiots, they're also just fucking assholes who take pleasure in others suffering. May they reap what they sow.

11. Don't be silly, the solution to reducing welfare costs is to reduce the surplus population

and line the pockets of the already rich even further. (Just in case!)

12. Someone needs to tell them Romney lost.
