I have no objection to helping out those in need. My problem is there are a lot of lazy people out there and amazingly more/better welfare programs usually means more people trying to leech money off the government. Susan has been working over at a doctor’s office in Cashiers and said its ridiculous how many people try to draw disability when they aren’t even trying to do anything to get better. She said of the dozens of people she has seen, only 2 or 3 actually deserve the money they are getting.
I don’t want to take away anything from anybody that actually NEEDS the government to step in and help them out, but at the same time those people that just want freebies (aka leechers) ruin it for everybody. And yes, I take offense to being called greedy for not wanting to give my money away to leechers.
Also, I plan to have 1 house, probably 2 cars, and whatever amenities I can afford, plus I would actually like to have money for retirement (I don’t think social security counts but that is for another discussion). And I will give money to a charity that I actually support.
agreed!!
