[Sci-Fi]

The United States spends above 60% of her total annual budget on 'helping' the so-called poor. MOST of the individual State Governments deduct somewhere around 5 to 8% of earnings for their cut; along with property tax and sales tax. All toll a whopping state tax bill most of which is spent, 'helping the poor.' In the name of 'helping the poor' ObamaCare further stretched the concept of giving our fair share by quadrupling the cost of healthcare for the average paying American. Churches spend a like amount to the federal government (the 60% range) of their total contributions in ministering to the poor and the lost. On top of that in active existence, there are one and a half million charitable organizations operating in the US alone, 'helping the poor.' And not that it's any business of mine, but I have a sincere doubt that Sci-Fi's personal sacrifice in coming to the aid of the poor, approaches anything remotely near the 60% threshold. At any rate I can tell you, many Americans give somewhat liberally to the Church, (10%) they also give to charity, and I can assure that Uncle Sam and the occupant of the Governor's Mansion make very sure that the people of relative substance give an amount commensurate to satisfy government's vision of what is fair. (about 33 to 40%) Now you add all that up and you will see that most working Americans give more to others than they keep for themselves.

So one might understand how listening to and reading the absurd statements made by bozos like yourself, going on continually about the poor and how they need so much, is nauseating. You all are a bunch of front men for the DNC, justifying their mission in the perpetual parroting of the official DNC sanctioned talking points. And in doing so you aid in their taking from folks as much as they can possibly tax. If you want to do more, then by all means open your checkbook and get to it. In the meantime in my book, the able bodied among the welfare crowd can march themselves out in the early am and get a job working at something other than their zombie kill count.

Your advocacy for the poor is not even a conviction of your own. You came by it vicariously via your daily infused subscription of the MSNBC supplied DNC talking points. And the reason I know this is as follows. This whole late breaking help the poor movement is a liberal aberration which started back in the days of the LBJ Administration. Tax and spend liberal Democrats have been using the guise as cover since way back then and as the circus debates of the last two evenings clearly demonstrate, the absurdity of the notion has only gotten worse and worse. America has always helped her poor. They don't need Johnnies come after it's all over telling them what they need to give. But very soon now, the communist pipe dream of a guaranteed carefree life, lived in an environment completely regulated and controlled government will be the promise. That promise will be made by the very vacuous and inexperienced liberal chipmunks which a scant few years ago sat in their college classrooms, being indoctrinated by the likes of Elizabeth Warren. So you see sir, I saw the whole hyperbolic avalanche of faked compassion, from it's LBJ infancy to it's present day ridiculousness. Again, ridiculousness as on display in the Democrat manifestos of the past two evenings.


In my opinion friendo, you're the one whose as wrong as wrong gets. Now, whatcha got to say to that brother ali?

I'd love to see the proof for this. Me doth think that you might have mixed that up with our overwhelming budget on the military.
