that hated any program that helped anyone, invariably had applied to some program and was refused because they weren't poor enough. So they were complaining that "those people" (they always say those people) got something they couldn't. What really makes this argument stupid is that they are in the party that insists on keeping the incomes really low for qualification...they would prefer the person applying for any help be totally broke and homeless...unless they need the help then they complain that they'd have to be broke and homeless to get any help.
