There is nothing worse than paying in a checkout line with a food card and showering in truck stops.

If you truly believe this, then you've had an easy life. Congratulations.

So you were broke, looked around for a year, then started your own business and are making it. That is HOW IT IS SUPPOSED TO WORK. You know DAMN WELL that people like you aren't the ones that Freepers are complaining about. It is the lifelong, "I could work but why bother when government money is free" types that we're referring to. In fact, it is the very system that rewards laziness and entitlement and increases government dependency that is the CAUSE of our economic woes right now, yet you would say that the depths of those woes are justification for the system that caused it? WTF

I can't believe that I'm on FreeRepublic right now. I really can't. If this kind of whining, muddled thinking is what passes for conservative thinking, we're beyond done. To get on a FreeRepublic thread and see members being chastised for objecting to our ridiculous welfare system is beyond belief. Either you guys are trolls, or we are truly and utterly screwed. Guess what, IT IS NOT a Constitutional right to live a life free from pain. Accepting the pain and dealing with it in a proper manner is the true test in life. Throwing your principles out the window the moment those principles require the slightest bit of discomfort is pathetic.

“Throwing your principles out the window the moment those principles require the slightest bit of discomfort is pathetic”.

Loved the entire response, but especially that part. Well said.

Being nasty to the unemployed by some around here instead of offering sound advice is pathetic in my opinion. You are entitled to yours of course.

Finally, bravo for an outstanding post!

I don't know what is the matter with this thread. It does look like a lot of the typical name-calling leftists. "Ignorant B" is a nice Christian thing to call others. I've never been on a more disgusting looter thread on FR. Talk about belittling others to make themselves feel better for looting the taxpayers.
