Loll what am I ignoring?

Quote:Absolutely. However, the liberal mindset is that these people should "get their fair share". It is very much condoned on the left and discouraged on the right.
Quote:Thanks. It was hard times for me but with a lot of moral support from my family I made it through. And I did get out of it, but sadly there is a mindset among some who think, why work if someone gives me money to sit at home. It's very easy to slip into that mindset as well if you're already emotionally compromised through depression, anxiety, etc., as I was. There was a moment here and there when I really thought about it myself but something in me just said NO, so I put on my big girl panties and worked on getting myself to a better place.
And it may be a small percentage of folks who are taking advantage of the system, no one knows for sure, but small numbers can create huge problems.
Quote:By rights, I honestly lean left on most issues (especially social ones), but I do not believe in anyone getting something for nothing "just because." I don't care who you are or where you come from. Make an honest attempt and I'm all for lending a hand.
Quote:I agree, I'm just not into lending "your" hand.
