no, but not everybody who is in welfare is lazy, and if you take it away because of the lazy ones, then you affect the mother who just had the baby because some loon outside of the clinic called her a murderer, so now both her and the kid you helped saved are starving to death

Very good point. They prefer to have the mother and baby homeless.

the mother and kid starving to death is no body's fault but the mother and father of the child . Why should my tax money go towards someone that made a bad decision by having a child they could not afford . Not only should the mother and father not get welfare they should go to jail for not being able to take care of the life they created and put the child up for adoption . I do understand your point , i am for abortion simply due to the fact that people are ruining childs lives with their careless actions . And welfare is for the lazy , anybody could find a job anywhere with a tiny bit of effort

Saving the lives of children is a moral issue. Government funded social programs are an issue of freedom. We want welfare, health care, after school programs, school lunch, etc, but we want it to be controlled by the private sector, not the government. If you can get over your self-righteousness, you'll see that we want to help people too, we just want to do it a different way.

If the government controls these programs, then everyone is forced to participate. This is not freedom. If the private sector controls these programs, then everyone is free to choose which ones to participate in, and how much. For example, if I am forced to give $100 to the government, and they waste it, or loose it, I can't do anything about it. If I give that $100 to the Red Cross, and they waste it, then next time I can give it to the United Way or Salvation Army instead. This is called freedom and competition. It is a better way to get help to those that need it.

FIRST OF ALL. Where do you live? I'm pro-choice.. but I will tell you what.. at 18 years old I am ALREADY sick of the welfare living off my tax dollars.. my hard earned money that I have had to make at the local McDonalds.

Here in NY.. our state feels we can just let the scumb LIVE off state aid.. NEVER get a job.. and NEVER have to worry about putting food on the table. They are also the ones who drive around in practically brand new cars while our family vehicle is a 98 Dodge Caravan where only the 2 front doors and one side door work. Trunk door? Forget about it.

I am ALL for state health care.. which is one of the reasons why I might change my mind on who I'm voting for, for state governor because he feels state health care has to be decreased.

I'm for school lunch assistance if the family ACTUALLY works!

Food stamps? YOU MUST BE OUT OF YOUR MIND! Maybe if the family gets laid off ..then they deserve them.

However like I said.. assistance/welfare should only be for people who get laid off.. and in NY state.. we should only give it for about 6 months maximum. If the only job you can find is at the local McDonald's .... such as where I have worked since I turned 16.. then maybe you can have extra assistance. I don't think my hard earned money should go towards lazy people who don't know what WORK is.



by the way.. screw the ant-abortion people.

I believe in personal responsibility. There are some things people CANNOT do without help from the Government. I am in favor of welfare, healthcare, after school programs, school lunch, and food stamps, but people themselves need to take responsibility.

I realize that being raped is one thing, but if people willingly have sex without the proper means of birth control, and end up getting pregnant, the woman (and I don't mean offense when I say this) should take the personal responsibility of raising the child because of a sexual act that she performed.

This is a blanket staement. I happen to be pro-life. I think abortion's one of the most anti-female, anti-poor practice in the country. People who call themselves pro-choice would have abortion forced on mothers who are too poor or too whatever else if they could. I also think it's necesarry to have government help in place for those who need it. Here's a question for so called pro-choicers- How is it ok to hire a doctor to kill an unborn child, but a pregnant woman who smokes is guilty of child abuse?

most people DO do it on their own. Are you saying that people should just be lazy and not work for their children? why is the government responsible for my creation? I mean, I feel that if you desperately do need the help, sure, people should be helped. But many people that are on these programs are milking it and taking advantage of my tax dollars. I think that people should be getting themselves educated instead of breeding the next generations Bebe's Kids

The converse can be said about the other side.
The same people who want euthanasia, abortion and sex without consequence(unless you're a guy), want everyone else to pay for the poor decision making of the few upon whom we must bestow benevolent pity(ie. half our hard earned money).

In defence of the more conservative people you describe, I would suggest that no one is going to do for themselves what the state already does for nothing. They don't want to eliminate the programs you mention, they simply want to reduce them to a safety net as opposed to a hammock.

I dont really agree with you. i myself have not yet taken a side on abortion. I think their should be programs to help poor people. They have helped me growing up. But so many people use them and then dont work. Its easier to just take the free stuff. If they werent abused then they would be fine. If they were only used by the people who needed them they would be great.

Yes, and they are against giving welfare to mothers, the very people who had the baby instead of the abortion.

not rue at all. I think that anyone who needs gov. assistance should get it and I think abortion is murder. The problem with government assistance is that people who need it don't get it. I got pregnant in my senior year in high school ( was married, but husband was fired ffrom his job because he couldn't speak spanish.) and had to stop working because i couldn't be a construction worker while pregnant. I tried to get government assistance and could not. I lived in new mexico and the only people they though needed it was illegals.
