Well, he's not talking about *me* since I'm working 2 jobs. My husband is
an Air Force officer, yes, but we're not even close to being wealthy. We're
having 20% taken out, and still owe money at the end of the year. I don't
have a problem with my money being used to help others in this country or
another. I just hate to see it wasted on those who don't need it.
My mother *did* have us on welfare at times, but the difference is that she
spent more time working sometimes multiple jobs. She only supplemented her
income with state assistance, which I think is fine, since sometimes your
paycheck doesn't cover child care.
And as for the "starve" the multiple American kids, that's just absurd. The
welfare/food stamps benefits should only rise a slight amount after two
children, just as military dependent allowances only go up slightly.
It may be too late to deprogram this society of moochers, but something
needs to be done.
