So unless you plan to close the gap between the wealthy and the poor we are going to need federal assistance programs.

I think its funny that greed has destroyed the belief in helping your fellow man. The fact that you complain about the small amount of your taxed dollars that goes to help people in need disgusts me.

It's that type of thinking that makes our government more powerfull and robs the working people in this country. Nobody is putting a gun to your head and making you work at a job that doesn't pay enough for you to live on. Nobody is making people have more and more children that they can't afford to feed!! People make choices every day that affect the rest of their lives and some cry about it when they don't like the outcome, then want everyone else to take care of them. I am so sick of people whining about things being unfair in this country. You have the right to make your own decisions here and make your life as good as you want it to be!! I wouldn't call people who are successfull and make good money "greedy", we just want to be rewarded for all our hard work and smart decisions!!! What is so terrible about that??
