I am Not Rich, I am not Elitist, but I do believe that every Adult in this nation should at the very least try to support themselves...I Understand that Some are unable but if the welfare system were to truly be investigated how many leaches do you think you would find?
You ask about the economy i ask you to look at things that have caused this...
How is it that people that have never even paid taxes can some how collect Social Security? And i am not talking about Senior Citizen i am speaking of the young.
Welfare is a true beast...It was set up to support people on a temporary basis not support families for generations...Call me callus but this is reality. People graduating High School just to jump onto the welfare system...we soon after set them up with housing vouchers(originally intended to cover rent) And now they are qualifying for home loans....Their Payments for there houses covered by the Housing vouchers....And you dont see a flawed system?
If you want McCain's stance check his voting history he is loyal to putting an end to the free ride system....
FREEDOM IS NEVER FREE!!!
