That came from the U.S., as we know. Sounds exactly like what our own Congress has been doing any and every chance it gets, when there are enough right-wingers parking their fat asses in the House of Representative.

The very idea of a cent going to help the poor instead of into financing greater wealth for the rightwing greedy, simply drives them wild.

They want ALL help, assistance, emergency care for the suffering cut completely as soon as possible, and forever, with more opportunities for them to live beyond the reach of taxing, while using full services of the state.

Finally, what they really want is a small stall for each poor person to stand in all night long as he/she learns to sleep standing up, and factories or fields placed nearby so they can walk to work, to work 20 hours a day, until he/she drops in his/her tracks. They also would like these work areas made sound resistance so they can't hear the poor should they fall ill, and try to call out for help.

Our hearts go out to pitifull Ninoska Lopez-Amador. How can she live with such adversity in life?
Oh, the pooor never have to worry about that problem, oh, noooo, they've got it easy!
