Why should my hard earned money go to those less fortunate?
#28
RE: Why should my hard earned money go to those less fortunate?
1) How much of your hard earned money is being taxed and going to people who are less fortunate?

On your intro you say you're a student and you used to work in a grocery store.  It's just that when I was a student I only worked part time and wasn't taxed anything because I wasn't earning enough to be taxed.

2)  The people you're describing don't sound like they're less fortunate, it sounds like they've chosen to be lazy and to rely on government pay outs.

3)  I've also known people who are perfectly capable of working and some people who have considered faking mental illness to get more money.  It is disturbing.

4)  Forced redistribution of money in the form of welfare is problematic for obvious reasons.  I think the theory behind it is that we live in such a huge society that it's caused people to be encapable of empathy to everyone else within that society.  Plus the governments sometimes extend their role of governing the people of that one country they're and giving money away for free to other countries for some reason.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
