27. Does the truth frighten you? there was nothing false in the article

I realize you are not affected by cuts to US social spending, but those that are, don't find the Pete Peterson approach quite as amusing.

Why is it you laugh so hard every time programs that help our poor, our old, and our disabled are under attack? Do you find it amusing because it can't hurt you and you are like a 12 year old laughing at people breaking bones and balls on youtube?

do you want me to post some video of homeless being beat up or elderly people falling down and breaking a hip to further tickle your sadistic voyeuristic funny bone?

You do so enjoy laughing at the hardship of your neighbors to the south, I live at the border with Ft. Erie, never met a Canadian like you, near here they are compassionate, polite neighbors.

Your hobby is harmless enough I suppose, you have never made any actual arguments or done much more than laugh, thus you can't convince anyone here to pursue the destructive third way policies you feel will provide hardship fodder for your amusement.
