Victim mentality! It's not my fault, it's somebody else's fault! It's the
systems fault! But never mine! The 4-5% unemployment you refer to is supposed
to account for those in between jobs,those that have quit or been fired or
returning to school or job training to increase their skills to get a better
job. We have 20-30 million people that illegally immigrated to take jobs,
undercutting themselves and citizens thus driving down wages that could be paid
to citizens, causing more dependence on social programs. But hey, they're cheap
labor, they'd make great victims to vote for our party and they pay SS at their
jobs that they can't receive(unless they vote for our party to remedy) thus
bailing out the decline of SS contributions.< If you live in the United States,
are able bodied and relatively sound mind and you are poor, more than likely,
it is your own fault, due to poor choices you have made in life. Maybe you
dropped out of school too early, got pregnant, joined a gang, got involved in
drugs, had a generally shitty attitude or appearance that no employer wants to
put up with, went to jail or prison for criminal activity, thus nobody wants to
hire. Maybe your just fucking lazy, spoiled, never learned personal
responsibility and don't feel you could take care of yourself. Maybe you
dropped out of society so you could seek *enlightenment*or thought reading
palms and being an astrologer would pay the bills. <Nobody is suggesting that
there be no welfare programs. Shit happens and sometimes people need a hand out
for a *short* time to get their act together. Unfortunately, there are people
that will never have the ability to take care of themselves or have completely
lost that ability but remedies for them are minimal because Shaneeka is flat on
her back pumping out little future criminals at everybody else's expense or
can't seem to make it out of rehab. If you're poor in America, it sure is most
likely your fault.< I'm all for ending any kind of corporate welfare. But at
the same time, their taxes need to be kept reasonable enough that they would
want to keep their profits here for reinvestment and expansion(more jobs). They
provide the jobs that pay income taxes as well as other taxes. Cut the throat
of the goose that lays the golden egg and all you're left with is a dead goose.
I could care less if a person is 100% greedy or altruistic, it's his/her life,
just play by the rules. Don't try justifying your own greed and covetousness by
telling me theirs is unhealthy and yours is *purely* altruistic, thus good and
righteous. They pay taxes, create and provide jobs for millions of families
that make their lives livable, if not abundant. They do a hell of a lot more
for society than the whiners and complainers that can't seem to do jack- shit
for themselves.

Again, the welfare recipients are the victims of capitalism. Economic
models of capitalism always predict less than 100% employment. I recall the
"ideal" is around 95%, so for that unemployed 5%, they need some form of
assistance. Given the radical difference in access to education and services
between the wealthy and the poor, it is nearly impossible to rise out of
poverty, no matter what, so this may span generations.
Again, it is not the fault of the poor, but rather the blindly greedy, who see
only exploitable numbers when they look at a population. You sound as if you
have bought into the social fiction that people want to be poor. They do not,
even with the paltry amounts that welfare pays.
Rather than do away with welfare for the poor, let's begin by eliminating
welfare for the rich. Much is made by these folks about the amount of taxes
they pay relative to the rest of the country. However, the amount they pay,
relative to their wealth, is a pittance, and they should all be deeply ashamed
of themselves. There is no benefit to the class war they have started and it
will end badly for them - not in terms of some grand revolution, but simply
their increasingly bad karma.
Read the news carefully regarding the greediest members of our society, and you
find that despite enormous wealth, many of their lives are stressful,
unhealthy, and short. Money cannot buy happiness, only comfy distractions.

a *lifestyle*, from one generation to another, but temporary.

You are assuming that hard work equals reward commensurate with effort exerted.
Not so. It would be so simple if that were the case. Many, many people
literally work their asses off and have no home, very little food to eat and
live in rags. The world does not work like how you think it works. There is
inequality with regard to race, gender and class that takes its toll on
millions of people. I have known a number of well-heeled individuals who like
to recline back in their easy chairs, glance around at their paneled, ornate
living rooms while sipping 25 year old tawny port and smugly assert that if
everyone was just willing to work hard they could enjoy the advantages that
they enjoy. Bullshit.
Knocked that one out of the park. It doesn't take any esteemed values, such as
compassion and equality, to make a lot of money. No one is saying give it back,
but own up to what got you there. In these times, due to the leverage of tech,
money buys more influence than it ever has. Unfortunately, many use that as an
excuse to become ever richer, consequences be damned. The rich DO get richer
and the poor get poorer.
This crap about people wanting to lie around on welfare, vs. having productive
and meaningful jobs is propaganda put out by those who have already shipped
many of the middle class jobs outside the US. Blame the victim.

What's happening isthat the demsare freaked bythe tractionBernie Sandersis
getting. He's alsopopular withmillennials whocould swing thevote. I alsohave a
theorySanders is thereason Trumpjumped into therace. So itcould be anelection
ofdemocraticsocialism vscorporatism. Thing is, the USneeds somesocialism
tobalance things. All corporatistscare about ismaking lots andlots of moneyand
the publicbe damned.
I've listened toSanders on ThomHartmann's showfor years and heis a
veryreasonableperson so itwon't be the newSoviet Union bya any means. Hillary
is too"status quo"with lots ofskeletons in hercloset.
