But you already made a list of 'who gets what'. You said old folks, some kids, retarded people.....
You were deciding who was worthy of public health assistance.

And is that fair?
Quote:......I'm taking sixty dollars of your money to go to the schools, county roads, SSDI, SSI, and then to give to people who are too poor to afford health insurance, food, clothing, and other basic needs.
Pay taxes to pay for schools for those lazy fat bastard that can't afford to pay for their own childrens education. Check
Pay taxes to support those geriatic societal leeches that can't pay for their own retirement. Don't even ask about their needed medications. Check
Would these be abolished in your political ideals? If not, why not? "I DON'T WANT TO" give my hard-earned money to these people! They need to get a job or do something for money and quit leeching off me.
Hypothetical here:
DLF, thru some unforeseen and unfortunate circumstances loses her job, insurance and whatever money she has in the bank. She then contracts an easily treatable, yet expensive and, if left untreated, deadly medical problem.
Does she then say "Oh well, I will die now." ?
Or if it's her Mum under the same circumstances does she tell her "Sorry Mum, get right with your God since you have no money you must die." Or her child.[/quote]
I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.
