hough unlike you I realize hardwork and personal responsibilty don't often cut it for many and I realize that just because someone works hard or is responsible there are a whole lot of other factors out of their realm of personal control involved in how easy or hard their lot in life is. Shit happens, the best laid plans fall apart, often it's roll the dice and hope for the best. Often a safety net is needed and unlike you I'm proud that some of my tax dollars go toward that safety net. I consider it giving back a little of my good fortune. My father worked damn hard all his life and died practically penniless but he was rich man in ways you'll never ever begin to comprehend. So keep on smokin your $25 cigars and driving your Mercedes and patting yourself on the back telling yourself what a fuckin great guy you are as you hate others for not being as you are. You fool. You don't know me. How many people have you taken off of the street and let them use your shower and fed them? How many people did you actually let live in your house or in your basement???? FUCK YOU I am more charitable than you will ever be. Every car went to someplace like Kars for Kids. Every stitch of clothing went to Good Will. How many kids did you pay monthly for with organizations like the Christian Childrens Fund? Two for me...how many for you? How much work have you done for free??? I handle pro bono cases every year and have for the past 18 years. No...I don't believe in subsidizing failure and bad behavior. If you had said THAT, you would have been accurate. Everything else I have written about has been regarding making people that are healthy work for the welfare (not disability, not unemployment) that they receive. I have said this quite a bit and I will say it here as well. Charity is only philanthropic when it is voluntarily given. When it is ripped from your fist through a confiscatory scheme of taxation, it is tyranny. Oh...and here's a postscript for you; I DO smoke $25.00 cigars and drive a Mercedes Benz because I EARNED IT. So go piss into a fan if you don't like it. Oooopsss...double postscript. You are wrong....liberal IS a bad word. It describes a political belief based on collectivism where it is entirely appropriate to steal from a certain class to pay for an underclass. It is the political theory of swine, oppressors and failures. I would never want to be some low life piece of shit whining for a handout or a check because of my irresponsible procreating, my addictions, my lack of ambition, my failures in my life that caused, in the immortal words of Pink Floyd, "And then one day you find, ten years have got behind you, no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun." That is your political theory....and it is disgusting. I'm actually laughing my ass off at you. Get under your thin skin a little did I..raise your blood pressure to boiling? Good! I don't doubt for second that you smoke $25 cigars.... good for you. But better for the cigar company that cons you into believing the cigar you smoke is worth that..there's a sucker born every minute. So you earned it?? well good for you. But I digress, you are the one on here whining, pissing and moaning like a little 4 year old about how your hard earned cash is being stolen from you. You are the one one here who calls others every deragatory name in your vocabulary for having a different viewpoint from yours. To me that lacks both integrity and any sense of honor or any self respect for yourself. I'll give one though. I'm sure some of the tales of proof you rant on about are true. Of that I have little doubt. But what you present is anecdotal at best. (Now I hope that's not too big of a word for you to understand, what with you being a lawyer and all.) The internet is full of off their rocker ranters such as you who tell great tales of woe of welfare queens driving cadillacs and scumbags(your word) bilking the sytem and stealing your money. Does it happen?..sure it does and you have every right to be angry about that when it happens. But is it the norm? I doubt it. So here's my challenge to you bucko....prove to me through substantiated and verified facts and figures (no anecdotal or hearsay) from reputable sources that douchbagery, scumsuckery (as you so eloquently put it) are the statistical norm in our society for those less fortunate than yourself. Now if you're a lawyer as you claim you are, then proving what you so far have only anecdotaly asserted to be fact should be a piece of cake for you. The jury's listening, put up or shut up. As for charitable acts of do-goodery I'm not getting in a pissing match with you. Suffice it to say I'm not a people person and my charitable inclinations are more towards animals. I've devoted hundreds of hours to our local humane society and I do animal rescue, mostly large breed dogs. btw..give yourself another little pat on the back for being such a great fuckin guy there sport. It's heart warming to learn you're not a total waste of air and space. by the way dude, Pink Floyd's one of my favorite bands.
