121 Million People On Food Stamps

"The news just said there are 121 million people on Food Stamps. No wonder we are in the shape we are."

Someone posted this on facebook.  Now, here is my response:

The way to look at it is that there ARE people who are getting them that never thought they would have too, and THAT is the RESULT of the shape our country is in.  NOT the other way around.  

It all started with a war being started that should have NOT been started, then borrowing money from China to support that unnecessary war, then bringing down the interest rate so people who should not be buying homes making is possible for them to  buy homes, then RAISING the interest rates so those people could no long pay their mortgage, then the banks foreclosing on those homes rather than simply keeping the interest rates low, then the government BAILING OUT THE BANKS, rather than telling the banks to keep the interest rates low.  Sigh.  

Then, the unions demanding more money for their members to the point companies could no longer afford to pay the workers, so they started hiring non union, which, yes, included illegal aliens, because they know how to live on less that spoiled union workers.  The result is unemployment.  Then people can’t afford to buy American made products by union workers who still gouge their employers, so people buy cheaper products from China.  Then that results in companies not making enough to pay their UNION workers, so more UNION workers get laid off.

And that, dear Bush lovers, is trickle down economics.

Oh, all this led to me loosing EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING.  My building and all the money I put into it.  Having to claim Chapter 13 bankruptcy, living in a small 3rd floor apartment, no health insurance, and not much work.  I am NOT ashamed to say that I go the county hospital for my health care.  The care is actually a LOT better than what I was paying for with Blue-Cross!!!!

Now, don’t get me started on insurance companies!  At least NOW they are having to change their policies because people actually have a choice with The Affordable Health Care Act.

Remember, you have to walk in a man’s (woman’s) shoes before you can judge them.

"Paul Scalia proves that the nut doesn’t fall far from the tree. The son of famously antigay Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia will be a featured speaker at the annual meeting of Courage, the Catholic group that “ministers to persons with same-sex attractions” by telling them to never, ever, ever have sex.  Ever."  (Via Queerty.com)

So many things to be said about this man.  Where to start.  Well, guess I should just wind it up in one sentence:  "Know it all, self righteous, Catholic, celibate (yeah, right, ha ha) pervert."  Enough said.   

Why can't they just drink the Cool-Aid already.
