I see the problem you are having now. It's that you believe only half the population pays taxes. I suspect you are also misguided in your understanding of WHO it is who pays taxes at all.

what i shame i dont do requests.
the fantasy is welfare and i couldnt live with myself knowing that the only reason that check comes is the fact that is stolen from someone else just trying to make it destroying other people because some idiots morality trumps property rights in this country.

Once again you're living in this elitist fantasy.
People who were making 60k+ and gainfully employrd have lost their job, Neo.
They cannot pay their mortgage because they have no income. They once did, and could afford it..............now they can't. You can't just lump everyone into the category of "lazy and living above their means"

We moved to a more affordable house.

nd i know for a fact any loan given today theres that little thing called insurance that is available to get with every loan made in this country. and that includes guess what? getting sick,becoming disabled and LOSING THEIR JOBS.
So the government is profiting off of the misfortune it created... Again. It's all so simple... drive up housing... smash housing... extend fiscal control... exclude competition. People need to wake up.

Luck had nothing to do with it. I was being responsible for my obligations.
If these people cannot be responsible for their own failures, they deserve to suffer the consequences for inaction.

The government did not create this problem! An uniformed population and a greedy profit-leaching bank system did! You're right...you need to wake up!

yeah some people do take pride in working however too many people dont.
there is no honor of helping someone who cant and should be helping themselves. you going to be there for the rest of their lives? no
grow up and be a man
people who think like that is the root cause of the problems of this country.
if this country had a hard ass in charge i wonder what to think just how many people would be on welfare.
i know that there are 47 million americans on welfare and increase of 14 million since obama took over.
that now are our problems instead of changing the situations to make it so they need noone.
someone needs to grow up and it sure the hell aint myself.

i just love posts like that
telling me what i am and what i should be doing and what i should be spending my money on.
i read that post that has a severe lack of character itself.
keep making assumptions of a person that you know nothing about.
