Ha, Christian values...but I digress.
It's Reagan's war on the poor all over again. Well, it never actually went away, it just had to bite it's lip after welfare reform. Now there's a new bar and the new bar needs to be lowered again because of gluttony of the few. Question: How far do you lower the bar on something, to distract from and hide the fact that you're really covering up for something else? Answer? You don't stop, fuck'em. If I've learned anything from the GOP, it's that.
Government fraud and waste SHOULD be addressed, with a vengeance...but while you're swinging that vengeance around, quit manufacturing false outrage in the process. Food stamp Queen, Welfare Queen...it's the same thing. The GOP has been masterful for quite some time with the messaging. The problem is now it's not the unknown faces of poverty bearing the humiliation and vitriol anymore. NOW it's ticking further up...and guess what? People are starting to realize that perhaps they were hasty in their stereotypes and assumptions because...now their THOSE people as well. They say many people are incapable of empathizing or being critical beyond their own reality. Well welcome to a reality that was always there! WELCOME ABOARD YA BUNCH OF WORTHLESS, LAZY MOOCHERS! How's it feel to know that you're a piece of fuck'in shit because you need food stamps?
You don't get to be excluded and pretend you're not a piece of fuck'in shit because you're "different." Oh no. You're EXACTLY who the GOP is talking about. It doesn't matter about your circumstance or what fucking you received from a trickle down mentality and how hard you've been struggling to change that reality or avoid it. None of that matters. All that matters is you're a fuckin piece of shit, who's obviously not trying hard enough. You're pathetic and you're a drain on society. So keep pretending that this is only temporary for you...that you're not one of "them" and that the disdain is for someone else...because it's not.
yeah, like they believe that... the rationale is,
"you're not them because you worked and paid into the system, now you're down on your luck and just taking back what is rightfully yours, and more power to you"... yes, I've seen that statement given about one who was white,male and a 'conservative' who complained about the mythical 'welfare queen' and when I reminded him he was using welfare himself and asked 'what did that make him', he was defended by an 'ULTRA-libertarian' with the above reason..
why not just call it what it is... 'it's only a problem when blacks use it'.. and move on already.
