Do I think he should continue, no. Would I do it, no.

However if the the government has a point in taking a million dollars of this man's money so that they can give it to someone else than you damn right he has a right to the food stamps that he himself has paid for many hundreds of times over.

I don't know anything about this mans reason for being on food stamps to begin with but keep in mind under Obama food stamp recipients have exploded. Many of these people on food stamps are on them because the government is taking so much from the businesses that could hire them that they can't afford to hire. Obama is literally using policy to bring about the welfare state.

Get rid of slavery to the government via the tax code first. Then we can see who the freeloaders are.

Baloney.

It wasn't his money, to begin with.

The taxes on winnings are well known...

Most players of Mega Millions, and whatever...are the poor...to start with.

It's a tax on the poor and has been since lotteries were started. Period.

Do I think the Fed's deserve any of the money? Nope..not a dime. But that's how it works right now.
