Tell you what, D: Why don't we all agree to support ending anything any of us would deem as "welfare," corporate or otherwise. With one caveat.
And the caveat is that allowing people to keep their own money is not "welfare." So I'm not talking about "tax breaks."

Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

"Sarah Palin absolutely blew AWAY the audience tonight. If there was any doubt as to whether she was savvy enough, tough enough or smart enough to carry the mantle of Vice President, she put those fears to rest tonight. She took on Barack Obama DIRECTLY on every issue and exposed... She did it with warmth and humor, and came across as the every-person....it's becoming mroe and more clear that she was a genius pick for McCain."

Let's test the politicians for drugs...and how about an IQ test, too.
They'd need a combined score of 6.93 to pass.

These signatures have a 500 character limit?

Threaten generational dependency with loss of lifestyle, and you will drive better behaviors. In this case, 98% of those tested either got off of drugs or found innovative ways to beat the test.
Now, since these parasitic tapeworms have shown the ability to alter their behaviors to adjust to a changing environment, they certainly can and should be motivated to learn new skils, learn how to put on a condom, etc. and eventually learn to support their own damned existence.
oh, and nice name you gave me, D1B.........

Re: Another conk attempt to villify the poor deemed bullshit
If it were possible it would be nice but it's not possible. And that's not what I'm saying. I'm just saying let's not call a tax reduction or a tax break "welfare." Welfare is giving someone something they have not earned. When someone earns money then we "allow" them to keep it that is not "welfare."You want to live in a world without taxes?

Re: Another conk attempt to villify the poor deemed bullshit
There may be instances in which they did not earn the money. Maybe it was a gift. Maybe it was an inheritance. But the point is that allowing someone to keep what they already have is not the same thing as giving something to someone.So you think everyone who gets a tax reduction or tax break has "earned" their money in the "free market?"?
