1. Re: ABANDON O’SHIP . . . . Another Group Leaves Team Obama –

   I suspect that quite a few of those mentioned in the above article are trying to figure out if they can game The System better with Obama or Romney in the White House, and which candidate will be more willing to back them up (handouts, bailouts and such) above all other “clients” when things go wrong.

   NEVER, if you leave it up to the GOP.

   I dare anyone here to prove me wrong.

3. Re: YOUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK – ILLEGALS GET FREE FOOD FROM WIC, WHILE STARVING AMERICANS DON’T !! –

   First, if all of those who profess to “care” about the poor, elderly and disabled would simply help those people directly, there wouldn’t be any kind of economic underclass in America, or anywhere else, today.

   Second, there is NO Constitutional authorization under Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution for the Congress to create and maintain any part of the current welfare state using government resources, if you read the Constitution as the Founders intended it to be read. Only those who seem to favor the Imperial District having unlimited power over Americans favor this welfare system.

   If that’s not true and they do not favor the Imperials having unlimited power over the Productive Class, then how far is too far in terms of government expansion? What intrusion is too over-reaching?

   Third, the welfare system eats up about ninety percent of what it takes in with keeping the system running – facilities, utilities, internet support, salaries, employee pensions, office supplies, and the like. I suspect that less than ten percent of the system’s intake actually ends up with the alleged “beneficiaries.”

   Paraphrasing fellow Libertarian Tom Knapp,
   

   Poverty in the Third World is when flies are crawling all over your kids. Poverty in America is when the cable company shuts off service for nonpayment.
