[quote=CDMA ENG]And there are people who need help out there. But they are not the ones holding up street signs saying so. In fact the ones that really need it are the toughest to find. You usually have to ventrue somewhere you wouldn’t normally go to find the truelly needy. You’ll find a large portion of people out there that would be come self sucffient out there if they were made to be.[/quote]
CDMA, I agree. I don’t advocate just handing out that monthly check. I want to see these programs done right. The welfare teen with 6 kids can be taught to work. She can be assisted in finding employment.
Agree to some extent about the presence of those on the street who need help. I passed a man on the freeway exit, who had a signed, “Help me. I’m homeless”. Unless he’s mentally ill, he needs to be off the freeway exit and out looking for work. But, we need to create the jobs too.
And those of you who voted for Bush and are complaining now, shouldn’t have voted for Bush.
