An evil social program? Name one

AFDC. Never have so many given up so much to stay in poverty for generations. The goal is noble and right, to be sure, but the execution is the path to hell.

Any program that continues but does not show results.

D.A.R.E.
The New York City school voucher program
Comprehensive Child Development Program
After school programs
Family literacy programs
Educational software programs

All of these seem like a great idea. They just do not work. Yet, money keeps being given to them.

I never said there were any evil social programs... or any truly good businesses. I do believe our social programs could be much better ran... and our businesses could do more to improve goodwill. I also believe they all started out with the best of intentions... social programs, that is... and lost their way amid the dollar signs.

I notice you didn't quote the rolling of the eyes, Tazzy. An important modifier. I was playing with those easy strawman attacks.

No worries. You're tired. I might have a touch of Monday grumpy gas to vent.

To be honest, I was being a tad bit sarcastic with the foster care response, simply because it is such an easy target.

DYB does not seem to believe that there are any bad social programs. He refered to them as "evil." I defined the word and gave some examples.

Many of the social programs are like Communism. It looks great on paper. Put into practice it does not work out so well.

What gets me irritated is that they continue to spend money on programs that do not work and cut money in the space program. Stupid idiots.

Its like our health care system. Everyone knows these programs arent working, but no one - at least as a party - wants to admit the programs are a failure and take the time that is needed to come up with a better solution.

What takes precedence is actually helping people... not enabling them, not robbing them, not lining a politicians pockets...

What a crock of shit tazzy. Then why not stop any and all programs because they don't help the ULTIMATE amount of people deemed by people that sit on the outside of the fucking program and don't have a fucking clue what it is about. THAT...is what is wrong with America

Evil? Now that is a fucked up way of describing it. But, I will consider the source

Not a clue where you are sitting but do wonder why you don't just advocate stopping any and all social programs....They are evil right?

when it doesnt fit what you want it to fit, you resort to whining.

I spent three years on AFDC.... and had to fight the system to get off of it.

Whining? Complaining about programs that spend a miniscule amount of any Gov't budget is whining....If you worried half as much as what dribbles off to Corporate America......

Tell me..those 3 years. Did you need it? Glad it was there? Or, prefer that there wasn't an EVIL program like that around
