If 66% (2 out of 3) Americans understand that government programs increase or have no affect on poverty, we should be alright.
13% Say This Is a Good Thing.
In short, there is no frigging motivation to be otherwise when you get it on a platter.
It takes a lot of effort and determination to rise into a comparable position in the ranks of the supporting class, so why not just skate along and demand your due as po' folk?
It's time we withdrew from the War on Poverty. It's a quagmire unlike any this nation has ever been involved in.

Stay on message. Use your years studying the underlying principles of true “conservatism” as the foundation for what you say—
- that individual liberty is a gift from the Creator, not a grant from government;
- that the United States Constitution is the document by which “We, the People” limit the power which we grant to our elected representatives;
- that you stand for limited government and individual liberty; and,
- that America’s founding principles made the country a place of opportunity for the oppressed, prosperous, a beacon for liberty in the world.
If you stick to principles, and don’t allow your enemies (opponents) to define the campaign as one on “issues,” you will win. The opposition, both Dems and RINO’s don’t understand and can’t begin to compete with those principles.
During the Democrats’ push for the tyrannical power move which they labeled “health care reform,” Sen. Baucus said proudly: “It is a shift, a leveling . . . .”
America’s liberty and prosperity for over 200 years was based on another idea. They protected the earnings of hardworking citizens from the coercive hand of government by a written Constitution which did not allow the Baucuses, Obamas, and Reids of the world such “taking” power. Hear Samuel Adams:
“Is it now high time for the people of this country to explicitly declare whether they will be free men or slaves. It is an important question which ought to be decided. It concerns more than anything in this life. The salvation of our souls is interested in this event. For wherever tyranny is established, immorality of every kind comes in like a torrent, it is in the interest of tyrants to reduce the people to ignorance and vice.” - Samuel Adams
And:
“The utopian schemes of leveling and a community of goods, are as visionary and impractical as those which vest all property in the crown. These ideas are arbitrary, despotic, and, in our government unconstitutional.”,/i> - Samuel Adams
Americans finally are seeing that progressive policies are ruining the American dream, and they will respond to positive statements of fundamental principles, because, as in 1776 and 1787, those principles are “self-evident.”
I would have to agree with that statement. All too many People just don’t seem to care if it’s someone else’s money they’re throwing around!
57% are complete morons.
Weird that this 43 percent is close to Obama’s numbers...
