No. He’s talking about people who don’t make a decent living because they choose not to. I know several people in that category.

Today I went to SS office, there was a AA guy, age early 20s, weight 300+ lbs, filling form for disability. He was able to walk, well fed, spent lot of money on hair, shoes and blings all over.
That is the problem with government.

I don't that was the posters point.

The point was many people work, but don't earn enough to pay fed taxes. I imagine they are part of what he considered that 47%.

No?

No. He’s talking about people who don’t make a decent living because they choose not to.

Huh?

Wait a minute, so you're saying those that don't earn enough working to pay fed taxes are not part of that 47% percent?

[muawiyah]

That's hardly 47%.

It's a conceit of the rich that the poor are just faking it. If the guy wants to be president he has to get over that.
