Americans are always pointing the finger, and playing the blame game, and crying about what somebody else can do for them. Its ridiculous really, and im not just talking about obesity or alcoholism its a multitude of things. Imagine if everyone took on this attitude of the government owes me everything? Then once were all setting around waiting on the other to take some initiative, and have bled the country dry..whos fault is it then? Gods? Are we suppose to wait on God to take care of us for our own mistakes then?

I think we are going to have to agree to disagree because you aren't getting the point of the same taxes that you pay. It's almost like insurance, if you qualify for it after paying into it for years why not apply for it? It's not a handout because you put your MONEY into it when you were working and now that you can't you are able to cash in on this insurance that you were paying into.
