What ever happened to individualism in America?  Why should I have to pay for someone\'s food because they can\'t keep their legs close and have more kids than they can afford?

If you think that everyone on food stamps have the same story you are mistaken and very narrowed minded. I agree that paying for someone else\'s poor life choices should be their burden, not mine. but I also see that especially now many people are losing their jobs and having to file bankruptcy when a breadwinner gets sick and can\'t work. Just because you are OK now doesn\'t make you immune to what may come your way that you did not choose. I would like to see more oversight of government spending and the elimination of fraud, I think it would be worth the salaries of investigators to do this.

Because they think it is not fair that working people make more money and don\'t stop there. They also want you to pay for their medical, dental, unemployment, mortgage and gas.

Why do you paint everybody who gets food stamps with the same broad brush?

Exactly. Why should we be punished for the actions of irresponsible people? Because the government wants to leech off of us.

I don\'t know, I\'ve been asking the same thing for years.

Why do parents get a deduction for children? I pay just as much for taxes!

Why do I have to pay to educate YOUR children? My parents both worked to pay for mine.

Why do I only get a limited amount of SS when I put in twice as much?

Why, why, why! I can keep on going, they take too much from me!

We need to adopt some form of \"You put in, you take out\".
