It's not free. We all work to lift up the most vulnerable people in our society. I am very thankful to be an able bodied person that pays taxes. I'll never look down upon anyone that needs to use public assistance.
I'm sick and fucking tired of Republicans talking about welfare queens.
Meanwhile these assholes suck off the public teat and do nothing to give back to anyone except the donor class.
I think you maybe didn't understand my point. It seems like you drank from the right wing talking points fire hose.
You missed my point. This guy (and plenty of other Republican assholes like him) is saying that only "productive" members of society deserve to live a healthy life while producing nothing but misery for most of the people they were elected to represent and are supposed to be helping. They are the true "welfare queens." They live off of taxpayer money and contribute nothing to taxpayers.
