Welfare and Government


Alright we are living in a time of ever expanding welfare.  The welfare state is so screwed up you qualify for more welfare if you are already on another welfare program.  Case in point is if you are food stamps you can get a government supported cell phone with several hundred "free" minutes, "free" texting, and "free" long distance.  Freebies all around them and the government continues to hook people on the handouts with more handouts if you are already on handouts.  Wow must be great to have no motivation to get a job because the more you get the more you qualify for.

Here is the thing that people don't realize that is going on.  Our government does not really care if you are poor or not.  Let's be honest if they did they would give you basics like food to make sure you do not go hungry and give you food directly and not a EBT card.  The EBT card that people use in some cases to get cash for them.  Once you give someone something and do not check up on them anymore things can get out of control.  Crab legs on EBT?  My family doesn't eat that good.  Buying junk food on EBT and not eating healthy on my taxpayer money is insulting.  Not only that when their health declines I have to pay for the Medicaid because they did not take care of themselves.

Driving through town and seeing satellite dishes in the government housing is insulting.  You mean you can't afford housing and need taxpayer subsidized housing, but you can afford satellite t.v.?   Sounds legit right?  My wife and I work hard and when I say hard we have our regular full time jobs and own our own business also.  We work to provide for our family, but it seems that people are o.k. to take handouts while my family gets robbed by I.R.S. gunpoint.

If you have a car or even a car payment for that matter and you are on food stamps that is theft from the taxpayer.  You can afford a car, but you can't feed you or your family?  I have to call that out and say stop the fraud.  Another fraud is people on Medicaid when they do not take responsibility by having more children than they can not afford.  Having children out of wedlock and continuing to get child tax credits for having more of them and not having any intention of giving them a decent life other than government welfare is wrong.  No matter the race of the person it is happening everywhere.  Let's face it we are all humans and people are people and there are people that are out to take from the government and could care less about you or me.

It is time to fix the welfare state in this country.  Get rid of the fraud and make people earn what they get.  Allowing people to get handouts with no intention of getting a job or getting off welfare.  Why would they want out of it to be honest.  The government has continued to make it easier to get more handouts be staying exactly where you are at by being poor and dependent on the kindness of the government.  The government is not your friend and this nation was not founded on handouts.  We have allowed this to happen by electing
people that care about power and not people.  The government handout is not compassion it is economic slavery and if we don't vote out the enablers and turn this around very soon we will see the implosion of our economy under the weight of welfare.

Our charities, non-profits, and churches are going to suffer as the government continues to tax more people to fund this welfare state.  The food banks and soup kitchens are going to be pushed harder as the middle class and even rich are hit harder with more taxes and regulations to deal with.  Soon the government will push them out of business so the government will have less competition.  We have to face it the government does not like competition so just regulate it and tax it out of business.
