Why do some people feel the need to crawl face first in a pit of molten glass, when there is a bridge 20 feet to the left?

I know you want to wear your badge, you fought hard to get where you are, and everyone likes to say that.

Most people on welfare and food stamps are extremely embarrassed, or have gone past that and ‘gave up’ the ability to be embarrassed.

Everyone looks down on them; they aren’t laughing their way to the bank.

There are people who are not on PA, that NEED to be on PA, but don’t because of these notions of pride. Their children suffer all because the notion that only the shittyist of people get food stamps, or have ‘free lunch’ at school.

I’m sure some of you would love to have people really starve and actually DIE on the streets. PA keeps gives people a chance; assisted housing gives people a chance.

Like someone else said, if PA wasn’t there, those people would find their way back into the system. If it is down to two choices starve, or steal for food, how many people will make what choice?
