How I ended up a conservative? One reason is that I interned for a homeless shelter here in L.A for my Stanford grad studies. Probably the 2nd biggest with endowments and budgets that was almost endless.

In 7 months, I learned the hard way these assholes are NOT homeless but 80% of them are just effing LAZY and DONT WANT TO WORK. I got a lot of heat for my results but I made my argument in a factual manner.

And they get FREE DENTAL AND MEDICAL. I still remember the USC Dentistry students were giving them FREE teeth cleaning which would have cost you close to $500 in the private sector. I saw it all.

Liberalism seems to have no clue about reality

See my post #21. A similar experience is what prompted me to change my major from journalism to economics.

Attended Ohio University, Athens, OH for Social Work. Grew up poor and thought I could help with the skills I had. While interning, I realized that Social Work was an industry set up to create a need so they can keep their government jobs not to actually help people. There was little if any attempts to teach self sufficiency to those could benefit.

Thank you for verifying what many of us already knew. The large majority are bums who don't want to be part of societal norms, but are willing to suck off the teat of said society with welfare and food stamps and then literally crap upon.

I'm sick of this dim/socialist cry-baby nonsense. I've been homeless while sleeping in cars/garage, and still worked my way out with various multiple jobs; car washes, bus boy, dishwasher, widget factory (drill press at 16), to backroom labor, schlepping heavy film cans around to...

They just don't want to work. They think they are the ultimate of free, yet they can't see they depend on BAD society to provide them more than their tents/tarps on the sidewalks. Yeah, freedom is smelling and living in your own urine and feces. F*ck these BUMS. I don't give a rat's ass anymore about the homeless, other than the mentally ill and Vets.

the free dental schools treatments are used to teach the students how to do it....I went to Marquette dental as a child....it took them forever to do anything because every procedure had to be approved by staff..all free to my family

Where in the heck do you get your teeth cleaned?
