"I don't want to lose my programs"

That is the same lesson I was taught growing up. And I hope to pass that one to the next generation.

Because the aim of politicians is always to reduce public spending and funnel it into private pockets.

I won't support any reduction of public welfare.

It's not that the money isn't there, it's just in the wrong places.

I know 'entitlement' is a dirty word around here, but with the funds that our people generate for our nations, we DO all deserve a better quality of life.

Seems a little silly arguing over who works hardest, when our money is being filtered away on a daily basis.

I say don't punish people that aren't working, but reward those who do. Right now, the gap is so small, it's easy to see why people don't want to work, just to see their hard earned stolen away again.
