Sunday Morning guessing game:

A picture is worth a thousand words. Look at the picture below and guess: is this the aftermath of a bunch of makers or takers?

Answer: takers, after a riot at a Section 8 voucher distribution in Taylor, MI, Sat, Jan 12, 2013.

5000 takers lined up for 1000 taxpayer paid Section 8 housing vouchers. In the end, nobody got nothin' as the takers could not behave themselves and the distribution was canceled.

"the takers could not behave themselves and the distribution was canceled."

Let's get this straight. The government gives away free money - in substantial quantities. The only criterion for getting the money is to be standing in the right place in the line. There is no line control. And people are surprised there's a riot?
