Government Welfare Programs Out of Control

Mr. Hussein Obama has issued 140 Executive Orders so far in his presidency.

So he hasn't issued many compared to past presidents. And judging from here - 1,461 Days of The Obama Administration: Current List of President Obama's Executive Orders

Not too many seem to be hurting the US citizen.

Yea..I guess I can see that point, to a small degree. Things are not like Vietnam or WW2 where there were 10's of 1000's of soldiers in uniforms fighting each other in literal blood baths on battlefields. Where the enemy had comparable firepower and designation between enemy soldiers and civilians were a much clearer line. We are not even fighting standing armies anymore, we are fighting cultures and everyday people trying to improvise with what they can and keep what they have. We occupy Afghanistan, for crying out loud...a country whose primary source of income is the Drug Trade...and then Iraq, where the primary source of trade is Oil. We are fighting and killing people in these countries who do not have access to a single airplane or a single tank to even try to fight back with. When was the last time our boys saw a fair fight?..or fought for something worth fighting for, besides drugs and oil?

People used to have birth right in their homes, and used to look after the old until death in their homes. Now we ship them off to institutions to die, or be born. We try to separate ourselves from the life/death issues. We want death to become someone else's problem. So when it is in our face, we have a hard time with it, and cannot cope. Imagine how morticians feel towards death.....just another day at the office.

The truest definition of the word fairness is each person keeping what they have earned.
Wish there was a bit more space for me to add to my sig!

So you're saying that you are owed things that other people have earned. You are only entitled to what you, yourself have earned.

Preach on, brah!

Personally I think if you are on welfare for more than 6 minutes you should automatically be recruited into the military. It gives you a stable job, training to be someone, a sense of discipline, maybe even some motivation.
Or...even better yet is to have to pizz test to get your welfare cheque.

fixed

And preach on, brah!

This is exactly why I feel that any and all welfare programs should be limited to a 1-2 year max time frame for any person(s). And why taxes on people making money and working their *** off to make something of their life should not happen, while people take advantage of government programs. I don't want my tax money going to people that are this **** lazy and dependant on government programs.Housing officials claim surplus | NOLA.com

I dont mind helping the helpless,but im pissed were helping the clueless.......NOBAMA!
