WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU???? YES!! Someone with a lack of employment should not be allowed to eat steak and expensive foods from our tax payer dollars. Pleasure, comfort, enjoyment and entertainment are not rights!!!

So, you're in favour of my anti-steak guards idea then?
You're starting to sound like a walking, talking parody right this moment, I'm just letting you know. And you're most certainly suffering from a case of misdirected rage - there are others that are far more worthy of your contempt out there, you know.

To say that the less fortunate are not allowed to eat decent food or even treat themselves when they can actually afford to is just absolutely disgusting. Why should the unemployed and the working poor be forced to live on fucking instant noodles or whatever?

I certainly hope you never end up in that position, LPW but it might open your eyes a bit to the struggles of those who aren't as well off as you are. You really ought to be ashamed of yourself.

It is apparently the price that republicunts demand so they can continue to think they are superior.

So you wish for the unemployed to suffer for the crime of being unemployed?

Didn't we try this before in Britain with debtors prison?

Indeed.

"Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?"
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

It's at times like this that I try to remind people of the wise word of Supreme Court justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jnr.

By the way, most of the people on assistance are children. Their parents work, but need assistance because minimum wage isn't enough to sustain a family.
