She don’t need money for a cell phone. The gubmint has a program for her that GIVES a phone to her. It’s called an ObamaPhone.

I’ve said this over and over again here. She doesn’t pay anything for what she owes anybody using money she earned. There isn’t any other explanation of how this woman exists otherwise.

Everything she gets comes from entitlements. Feeling sorry for her or explaining away her circumstances is just an endorsement for entitlements and exercise in needless hand wringing that accomplishes nothing but perpetuation of same.

“Everything she gets comes from entitlements.”

Well, there’s a reason they are called ‘entitlements’; the ‘clients’ are ‘entitled’ to them.

To quote a disgraced Canadian Cabinet Minister, “I’m entitled to my entitlements! That’s why they’re called entitlements!”

Seriously. He said that.

IMHO, a sense of entitlement is psychological cover for a sense of shame in receiving stolen property.

To turn Proudhon on his head, “all socialism is theft”.

Instead of properly managing the water supply, the city opted to neglect it and instead waste resources on ridiculous entitlements.

Of all the things the govt could provide, water is the most essential and the least expensive.

This crisis smells.
