Trapped by a welfare system that won't help him because he's "too poor and destitute." (Boohoohoo!)

didn't a scientific study come out recently stating that natural selection among humans is no longer a force because those who have less in the brains dept. are supported and protected? (not that i believe in evolution, but this seems to be a true statement.)

they don't have to pay in. it's an "entitlement" program. i used to work for HUD and saw many an able bodied person getting SSI for such things as "crying jags."

we even had a body builder and a massage therapist, both who were suckling at the govt. teat.

If employers didn't have their behinds bound by the monstrous ADA, this guy might have the tiniest case. But this guy doesn't want to work, period. There was no talk about the jobs he even has the possibility of doing in this article. No talk of this guy wanting to learn better English. But if the guy has the initiative to move cross-country, he can do something for a living.

Well, there is a difference between what I call "microevolution" and the species-to species transformation which definitely remains unproven that is considered "evolution." Yes, when people with genetic disorders are protected and then reproduce, they will keep those genes in the gene pool. "Survival of the fittest" makes sense. But to expect that phrase to mean that we evolved from lemurs is a L-A-R-G-E stretch.
