Teach them a trade and help them make their own way. People grow up seeing welfare and food stamps as a normal way of life so it's no problem for them to be that way.
There's all kinds of "welfare" going on...
Lets not pretend that our military isn't a giant welfare dumping ground
but that aside: BEWARE this is a TROLL Thread

Re: Republicans to the Poor:
You can't be free while expecting other people to take care of you. There is an exchange. If you say you are free you are responsible for yourself and you risk failure. When people take care of you they have "leverage" with respect to your life and your choices.
When you say you want government to take care of you, you are selling your soul.

Re: Republicans to the Poor:
BTW, this is what the message to the poor should be:
"You have no right to expect that other people will bail you out when you fail. If people choose to help you out out of voluntary charity, that is good. But nobody owes that to you. You are not entitled to have other people provide what you cannot provide for yourself. And you are not entitled to have government rob people who are successful in order to provide you with what you need."

That would be wonderful if there were as many jobs as there are people who want jobs.

The idea that it's only The Unwashed Lazy Poor is ridiculous
We have proven in this country (over and over)
That Corporations get just as much "welfare" as anybody - as noted above
Automotive / Banking / Farming / Big Oil / Telecommunications
To some degree or another they're all on the take
over 50% of Federal Subsidies go to 5 groups
1) Financial Industries
2) Utilities Gas & Electric
3) Telecom
4) Oil Gas & Pipeline
5) The Poor
in that order....

Winning..?
What is this like a game of checkers or something
so the Feds have $840 Bn booked for 2014 defense spending
Not including a large percentage of the defense contractors that don't (somehow) get rolled into that figure
The actual number is in the Trillions
and $393 Bn on the books for 2014 Welfare & crap
Of course none of this includes the $928 Bn booked for Pensions (sweet Jeezus)
We are truly fucked
