My facebook post today-was it a mistake?

20. I started working when I was 13

at the family business. I've never needed a safety net, but I certainly don't begrudge those that do.

Most of the people who need social safety nets have the children that Republicans say should be born, but then want to deny even food in their mouths. If a five year old needs food in their mouth, a roof over their head, and *gasp* healthcare, you are a heartless person for claiming that their parents are greedy for doing everything to help their children have all three.

I pay my taxes. I don't mind when they go to feed a hungry child. I do mind when I hear a Republican claim that all single mothers usually have a boyfriend on the couch that is a drug dealer on the side. I do mind when I hear public workers get disparaged because they have a pension and can afford to retire. I do mind when I hear that kids who depend on school lunches shouldn't get fed.

I give a damn about having a civil society, and I feel put upon by no one, since I helped finance it. It's the price I pay for not having seniors, the disabled, and children dying in the street.
