You deserve a hand up.... Not a handout

 

When I was a kid my mom found herself raising 7 of us without the dirtbag father who was not worth much when he was around. Forgive my disrespect but I don't believe God meant 'Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee'  Exodus 20:12; when the father spends the money on booze and women and leaves the wife and kids to fend for themselves. If you disagree leave a comment. I'll be happy to hear your point of view.

 

The point of this is that welfare has become THE way of life for too many!! Men, and I use that term loosely, have a good time and then leave a child behind to be raised by a woman and YOU THE TAXPAYER. That thing called WELFARE. Taxes you pay that you could use to make life better for YOUR children. The ones that you DO take responsibility for.   

 

My mother did take welfare for a short period then got a job and then scraped by with the help of family and friends. That is the way that it was intended. The taxpayer offers temporary help and then the helpee moves on to become a productive member of society. Not for the helpee to suck on the tit of the taxpayer and have more babies so that the welfare check grows! All the while being a very poor example for the kids and the result is kids that turn out to be just like the parents. Walking through life with their hands outstretched and a you owe me attitude because they were RAISED to believe this. Or even worse, steal, rob, hurt or even kill to get what another has. You know the type. Take from the hard working people what they believe they deserve.

 

Thanks for your time. I could go on and on but I think you get the drift of my rant. Now here is a 2-minute video that gives more input.
