@almightygod Satan’s Birthday is the same day as Earth’s B-Day, unless the Bible is incorrect. Given earth is a Libra, you must be mistaken

Q: “What ever happened to that secular golden virtue called tolerance?” A: Tolerance doesn’t mean I can’t poke fun at the ridiculous.

@happyguy I misread ads as “aids” and wondered where you were going with that. I’m torn, I certainly advertise my blog on the twit….

OH, I forgot this last night; Technology that is in operation now is not “The Future” it’s “State of the Art”, the “Future” hasn’t happened.

@happyguy I think you could make that by working one hour as a consultant (probably more) so no, pointless sell-outism then.

Is it okay for me to think of @maddow as a “Chirpy Gay Liberal” if I think that it is both flattering and completely positive?

Why Welfare is Good

It Benefits the country to keep the poor fed and clothed to keep them from falling further down the line and either dying or turning to violent crime.

Why is that a hard concept for you to understand? The lazy or the unwilling don’t look at what some people think is tough love and say “I’ll straighten up and go to DeVry and get a good paying job” they say “I’ll rob someone who can’t fight back” or “I’ll just give up”

It’s not a difficult sociological concept, Welfare (and the associated programs) may have it’s share of able bodied folks who could be working and are just gaming the system, but that’s the price we pay to avoid the creation of a massive underclass that would eat society from below.

It’s OUR society, not YOUR society, you may not like sharing the world with the poor and unmotivated, but they are still there and you can either keep them penned up in social housing and ensconced in the labyrinthine coils of the Bureaucracy or they can be on their own, hungry and motivated.

Welfare, it’s what keeps “The Poor” from becoming “The Hungry”
