theused2lguy is an idiot, but so are you, funny how that works out huh? Just so you know, most of the people classed as living below the poverty line ARE working full time jobs, and yet they can't make ends meet. This is where certain government subsidies should come in, or on the flip side, raise the minimum wage so that people can actually make a living when they work 60+ hours a week. More so, a lot of the tax breaks in recent years have been for big corporations, you explain to me how that is helping the 50-100K worker? trickle down economics do NOT work for the majority of people, especially in the market today when so many of those jobs supposedly created by the success of the companies who are getting the tax breaks are being outsourced.

on the note of drug use. addiction is not something they can just snap out of, if they could quit, they would. obviously. a drug addiction alters you brain chemistry and ruins your capacity to function normally, think straight, and generally live any kind of productive life. Again, this is where I think some government funded programs should go to. offer to send them to rehab facilities instead of locking them up and wasting tax dollars just delaying a problem instead of fixing it.
