Where I live (the UK) there are too many people living off welfare and not working out of poverty. It really annoys me to see such people. The welfare system should be used by those who are really in need. The thing about black people:many of them are disadvantaged in some way by institutionalised racism etc and have little alternative, but I see your point. There are many who simply take advantage of it. There was a story in the newspaper a few years ago of a family with over 10 kids that lived entirely on welfare.

In the first place, let's avoid putting a racial face on this, as those who milk the system come in all forms, and all colors. It might surprise you to know that contrary to what you perceive, welfare (food stamps in particular) equals a relatively insignificant slice of your tax dollars. Especially if you compare that increment with the amount being handed over to big business, defense contractors, and most importantly, big oil. The welfare recipient that should truly inspire the gag reflex in all of us sits behind a desk in the oval office making sure that he and his oil tycoon/goons best interests are not only served, but lavishly over served. Pissed off?!? If you don't vote, or protest, than basically you have given up your right to be pissed, much less express it.

I wish that you would receive alot of BLACKS with weaves, alcohol and cigarettes at your door. I mean after all the BLACK! might rub off on your doorbell and door mat or maybe they could just be bringing you some fried chicken and watermelon and a case of beer from that name brand grocery store Or maybe if they knew your phone number they'd call you on their cell phone that you paid for to apolgize.
By the way I'm BLACK! Maybe you should not read this comment your blue-eyes may turn brown or OH NO!or BLACK!

You don't like paying you taxes for black people? Are you racist? There's white people who use food stamps all the time, you ever been to Texas? I my opinion the government shouldn't support people on welfare at all. It's people's own faults that they are poor. They should learn, America's not a land of handouts! There should be no welfare. The next thing you know, we're all living in Canada!

i'm so sorry to ascertain all of this. i became picked on badly in center college, and pretended to be ill continuously so i did not ought to flow. It purely takes a million propose man or woman, and also you sense unhappy, and commence to trust it. I made a promise to myself that no count what, i does not allow issues get to me. even as i began extreme college I felt like a clean man or woman. I in basic terms did not allow the call calling get to me and persons end. even as its obviously attending to you, they %. on you extra. If i became you i'd refer on your mom about what your dad reported to you. NO parent ought to EVER hate their baby or say undesirable issues to them. If being on the pc makes you chuffed, then do not end, shop taking area in on the pc, connect loose on-line community chats and chat to human beings. it will make you sense extra effective about your self. do not flow sulking round on-line, human beings become drained of it. i tips that you create a personality that you've continuously dreamed of or perhaps as your on-line, become that man or woman. ultimately you should become that man or woman in authentic existence, and also you'll benefit extra self belief. refer to me even as ever you want to.
