DOn't get me wrong, I think it is great that our "poor" live better than most in the world. I just don't like being told that it is worse than it really is by a certain party/parties/leaders.

Guess we are poor. Cool. Time to go get on welfare and food stamps.

Well, first you'll have to get divorced since marriage is not favored in the welfare system and then you'll have to cut your hours and ambition to work. Also it would certainly help if you pushed out more kids once you get started.

I do have a heart but I quite caring about the nations poor when I heard about a woman in Mass. that was collecting approximately 1 million dollars legally a year in welfare for her and her 14 kids she was raising. There are a few poor that I feel sorry for but for the most part the country provides enough support and services for them that they make more than I do in a year and I spend times in war zones. Oh well what can I say???

Poor little fatties.
