The Real Welfare Queens Are Our Legislators, Not Food-Stamp Recipients

>America can afford 525 people on extravagant welfare as legislators in DC. America CANNOT afford 150,000,000+ people on welfare.

America MAY be able to afford 150M+, let alone 525, on welfare; the problem is America still (supposedly) has these things called Rights.

Welfare, of ANY type, infringes upon a multitude of said Rights.

“the problem is America still (supposedly) has these things called Rights.”

You must not have gotten the memo. The gibs-me-dats have ‘rights’ to our work.
