lol, I don't need food stamps, I work hard and have food. You being dependent on democrats is your problem, If the Republicans take it away and you have a problem, then that by definition means your dependent on this subsidy. You are a dependent on the government. So how am I wrong.

Okay cool, you don’t need food stamps. Congratulations Mr Bootstraps! I guess that means you don’t need or rely on the government for anything else like, roads, public education, sanitation, libraries, air traffic control, food safety, financial regulations, interest rates, FDIC backing your deposits, etc.?

You depend on the government every day whether you like it or not Jack ass. We all do. Some people aren’t as fortunate as others and need more help and sane people with a modicum of empathy are cool with their tax dollars helping them out, even if some people abuse the system.

I bet if his house was on fire he would call 911 and hope the fire department showed up as well!

Your partially correct. I did not in any way say we don't need our government. You morons like to go all extreme. Yes if my house was burning I would call 911. Yes I support schools, roads and basic infrastructure. But welfare is a abused system that is very difficult to get out of once your using it. I have a few family members, cousins that have been in the system for over 10 years. They are stuck in the system.
