I’m not opposed to helping people in need. No one that I know is. A basic safety net is okay. But that nanny state socialism goes too far.
Regarding Social Security, I know how much I contributed. I have a detailed spreadsheet with all contribution and future expected payments based on current guidelines. That is my money — I and my employers on my behalf have paid in. Unless I live to a very old age, I won’t get what I paid in. So, yes, I’ll be taking that money the month it becomes available.

Don’t confuse what I say as judgmental. I don’t care how many kids you have, just don’t take from others without permission. And most of all, show some gratitude when given a handout.Sirscrapntruckalot, TokyoJoe, Chinatown and 3 others Thank this. -
It always amuses me when people cry PC. So now I can’t criticize because that’s somehow PC? Instead of crying, how about people engage in an actual discussion. Come at me bro.Last edited: May 10, 2020

You do realise it was the newspaper using that word to push their aganda.
He had a house.
It was to small.
He declined similiar sized houses.
Now could it be he was abusing the system?
Yes it could be or not
I don't know enough about this story to judge.
I do know how easy it is spin a story to suit the authors agenda.PE_T, Swine hauler, D.Tibbitt and 2 others Thank this. -

my point was that instead of attacking him for posting a news article that apparently got your panties in a wad, or for his political views, do like you suggest above and have an actual discussion about the content of the article. if you will notice that is exactly what others did.
as for me, I'm anything but PC.what I had a problem with is your typical leftist "attack the messenger, ignore the message" approach.
and I don't think anyone needs you to point out or highlight anyones political agenda , hidden or otherwise. I'm sure that after a week any new members will be well aware of @Chinatown 's evil right leaning politics .Studebaker Hawk, Chinatown, 25(2)+2 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Safety net ok, people fall, I fell.
