That would be GREAT! That's exactly what I'm looking for!
I am sixty years old. My spouse and I are now retired and live on gross income of about $50,000. (Gross is before taxes) We have no large savings, only enough for emergencies.
I have a BA degree without gov’t grants or student loans. I was earning about $6000 per year and did not qualify in 1978-80’s. I had to pay for my classes and books. I attended local night class 2 times per week while working a full time job and a part time job and raising my daughter as a single parent. I remarried after five years.
My daughter has a PhD without gov’t grants or student loans. She worked and received some private scholarships. She did not qualify for anything, even student loans. Our income was about $33000 in the late 80’s to early 90’s and we had ZERO assets.
I also recall that we went to the doctor and got prescriptions during those years without ever giving a thought to the price. It was very affordable then even on our low income.
I believe people should work for themselves and not depend on the government or others in most circumstances. There are a few situations where folks need a hand and I try to be there for them. Most of us are capable of helping ourselves and I think it is best for us to do that if we can.
When we give everything to people, we rob them of the personal satisfaction they would receive in being able to provide for themselves and their families. We also give them a slave mentality by restricting what they can do in order for them to “stay on assistance”.
The way IT should be.
I guess this also means we won't have to pay any more taxes?
We don't need no stinking govt.!!!
Alone....and cut loose from the OBAMA MATRIX!!! What a deal! Pahhhhhhleeeezzzz! Oh, let it be....let it be...
Yup,
His base and all of the people who got sucked into the notion Govt. can be anything to anyone.
This beast impersonating a human is dead set on destroying our free society.
On your own.
No more government pensions. Defense spending slashed. Foreign bases closed. No more USAID. No more civilian contractors in foreign lands sucking off the government tit. No more medicaid. No more social security, disability, military disability, G.I. Bill. No more of anyone in any industry dependent on government contracts sucking off the government tit.
Hey VETS!!! KMA!!
No more sharing!!!
THE REALLY BEST PART???? NO MORE F$%^&*g ROAD CONSTRUCTION.
“I’m from the government and I’m here to help.”
Ring any bells?
“...damn Texican, saved my life twice, and once when he was dead....”
Are you talking about women? In a perfect world, they would trust much better their own families than some stranger in a far away office building. That, of course, is part of the reason to destroy the entire concept of family: creating defenseless women and children, dependant on government.
You really have no idea what it means to be free do you???
Music to my ears. No government interference.
Painful for Buckwheat and the First Terrorist- The best of all possible outcomes for the citizens of the USA!
“The left is insane. Seriously.”
Like a fox....
The Dependence Society has been the wet dream of the Academic Socialists since the 60’s.
The whole reason ACORN (Called NWO before that) was created was to overwhelm the system with Welfare cases, causing the collapse of the evil white man.
That’s why Obamacare HAD to pass, so Dems could use it the “HEARTLESS FASCIST!” attacks against anyone who DARED to stand up against it.
When you rob from Peter to pay Paul, you will ALWAYS have the support of Paul.
The best idea I have heard yet.
Not quite on my own. I have my gun, my bible and my dog, and I know where all the preppers live.
if only...
