28. No more temporary than anything else.

To give up and say let's the poor starve because tomorrow a RepubliCON will come along and wipe out all food assistance is the same as saying I'm not going to work because tomorrow the job might be defunct.

The job market is full of jobs that are no longer needed, think wet-nurse and travel agent. IT and computer jobs use to mean big bucks but now those jobs are barely paying a middle-class income. To give up and not work because someday that job might go away or pay substantially less is a certain path to poverty. To give up on funding much needed programs for the working class because tomorrow the RepubliCONS will crash the economy and take away funding is a certain path to a feudal society.

Do you see the corporations giving up? They know their free ride will eventually end but they are fighting for every last subsidy and dime they can squeeze out of our tax dollars. They don't give up and they get nice fat welfare checks - from GE paying zero taxes but still getting rebates, to hidden money off-shore, to not making oil corporations pay their billions in pumping fees for use of our federal land, to 15 to 20% less taxes on those who live off their parents money. The uber rich take whatever they can and keep fighting for more welfare. Why should the working class give up?
