Yeah, let's not give help to the Hungry in America because 10% (or whatever percentage) wastes food!
Can't help homeless because, well, it's their choice, right, to be homeless? Can't be spending any or YOUR (tax) money to keep any of them warm in the winter.
And let's not (federally) pay for any abortions that that might save a woman or child who was raped or must endure a terrible medical problem for the rest of the life of a newborn, right?
Let's not help people suffering in hurricanes because most people don't endure hurricanes!
And good grief, think how bad it is that someone , somewhere should get something for any tax dollars they already paid for the "right" to live in America. (That Right" only pertains if you do you fair share, I guess!)


That someone else should not get something for nothing or next to nothing that can't help them out when they are in need because YOU feel it's something being taken away from YOU, sounds positively REPUBLICAN!

I sincerely hope YOU never have the occasion to walk in their shoes. But if you do, I imagine YOU will never expect any helping hands!

Sorry for the rant. But I've had enough of those who are so worried the micro percentage amount of taxes ( maybe as much as a couple of bucks) might be handed out to those in need while they never say a word about the gross subsidies given to Big Oil, Big Pharma and the destruction of small American Farmers and Businesses.

Yeah. Absolutely Republican.
