Give them candy to get their vote.
Womb to the tomb groceries - The Food Stamp President - Obama
Foxnews would twist/pervert the truth like that. It's what they're good at. These days that have less credability than even WND & other tabloids.
I want to make it clear: We are not voting for money!!!
WE ARE VOTING FOR A PRESIDENT WHO GIVES A SH1T ABOUT THE SMALL GUY!!!!!!
Only the cynical self-righteous folks, who see the poor and struggling as lazy moochers, are the ones who are blind enough to think we're voting for
money.
Being poor is hard work. It far more difficult than being rich. IF this were not true no one would have any need to aspire to riches.
No one wants to be poor. No one wants to forever scrape by on the bare minimum. People simply want to survive. They want to feed their families and
make it just another day.
Working full time, attending school full time and taking care of a family of 4 simultaneously is very hard work indeed. There are many in my shoes. If
we wanted to scrape by on the minimal handouts from the government then what need would we have for school? There are some who have to work 2 jobs
that don’t have the time or resources to attend school. What of those people? Will they ever escape their rut?
Isn’t it sad we live in a society where someone can work 2 jobs and still be poor enough to qualify for social benefits? Any they are still called
lazy moochers b/c they don't have any discernable outward reflections of success – as it is defined in our society.
And the people who have no qualifications. Think about the 50 year old guy who labored @ a factory for 30 years. He’s now laid off and has no skills
in a society where a bachelor’s degree is the bare minimum. And he’s relying on “entitlements” to survive. Who’s going to hire him? Is he a
lazy mooch? Sure he could go to school you say. But what if he does get a bachelors degree at such an old age?. He’s going to be entering the job
market competing against young kids with the same base knowledge. It’s going to be harder for him to find a job and now he has 50K in debt from
student loans.
Romney is a guy that promises to fix the problem by giving us jobs. Yet so far he has only shown us a roadmap to cut social benefits in the name of
"fixing the deficit" while simotaneously beefing up the biggest military budget in the universe.
**If Romney truly thought he was going to fix our plight by giving us jobs, then he would have no need to cut social benefits for we would no longer
need them b/c we'd have good jobs. **
So he plans to cut our lifelines and THEN give us jobs? If Romney is such a smart/moral God fearing guy wouldnt he solve the problem in the least
draconic way possible? He give us good jobs then we would not need the "survival benefits" and his deficit problems are fixed? Or he is out of touch
with poor people, see's them as a cancer on society as is apparent in his own words, plans to do nothing for 47% of the nation, etc etc. So who is he
planning to give jobs to? the ones who already have jobs?
The truth is he's not planning to give anyone jobs. He's going to do whatever is in the best interest of people like him.
