[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 3861421, member: 24302"] Well first off Social Security is a separate program that should be required to have a hands off policy instead of the government using those funds for other things. Agree? Second there are ridiculous things being funded that shouldn't be. A congressman puts together a book of these every year to demonstrate how badly our money is being spent. Third it's recognized that there's a huge amount of waste and fraud going on but nothing ever seems to be done about it. Probably because it allows many in government to dip their hands into the til. Fourth there should be limits in place that require the government to work within those limits. And finally people shouldn't look to the government to pay their way when they are young and able bodied. No excuse for not working these days. My brother, who's very liberal, said to me one time that if the only job available is McDonald's then they might as well stay home and collect benefits. No, they should work at McDonald's. If people want better for their kids than the menial jobs they have they will start pushing their kids to study. As long as they have a halfway decent life at government expense there's little incentive to do more. [/QUOTE]
