So, with all of these statements in mind, how is the Welfare State NOT a giant machine of theft and redistribution? Yes, yes, I know. Im a heartless SOB for asking the question. Ive never struggled to feed myself (even though I have), and Ive never been low income (even though I have), and I dont care about poor people (even though I do, and deeply so). I get it. Im a cold blooded scoundrel, I hear ya. Fine. But can you answer the question? If statements 1, 2, and 3 are all accurate, how does welfare manage to fall outside of these parameters? How is welfare not stealing? How, exactly?

Hannity was saying these people were desperate. I guess he was saying they thought they’d never get another welfare payment. BS! They weren’t thinking about next month. They were thinking “Dis is free stuff!
(sorry Ted, it had to be done)
Never was it this much fun
Everything looks good to me
My beady eyes see some frozen fries
And I just can't let them be
Well it's a free-for-all
And I heard it said
You take just what you want
The stakes are high and so am I
It's in the air toni-i-ight
We all are there with our
Cheshire grins I got eyes on free food
No stinkin card limits are in place
No tellin what I might do
Well looky here aint no gubmint sting
Food card magic's in my hand
When in doubt I whip it out
My cart totals over a grand
It's a free-for-all
Ooh, baby
Ooh, I got ya
Aaaaaaa
