"Why not just do away with welfare in WI for awhile?
There are 49 other states that will provide it for them and I'm sure that as soon as the "gimmim somthin for nothin"
tap is closed off , they'll all run next door with their hands out."

1. There are a bunch of people like that in WI.

You know, the people who say "nobody ever helped me out, I did everything on my own." The last person who said that to me I knew fairly well, and I knew her husband. She went through school using student loans, her husband was G.I. Bill. At one point in time, after school when she was working, she had the whole family on BadgerCare. But nobody helped them!

5. I hope you reminded her of all the taxpayer help her family received.

3. Yeah

Especailly the ones who say that welfare is tyranny beecause it's "forced charity."

They're more than willing to help out their own, but when it comes to "those people" (read those of a different race/religion/creed), screw 'em.

4. How about all the welfare for the wealthy?

"Oh that's different!"
