It ****es me off when people that don't have a clue start ranting and raving
about how people on "welfare" have so much. I've also noticed those people
tend to be the people that have the most. What is it about being well off
that makes you begrude poor people a few crumbs?

I know a woman whos husband makes over 100K a year and she is totally
convinced people on welfare are getting something she can't or doesn't get.
The last time she started in she was complaining that people on food stamps
were eating steak while she was having to eat hot dogs to save money. Yeah,
I ripped her ass for that one.
