| 75. Wait people who were foreclosed on were lazy |
|
people who bought homes they couldn't afford? Who gave them the loan? Kids with student loans they can't pay are just lazy and went to schools they couldn't afford? Who gave them the loan? The unemployed are lazy and just don't want to work? Who supported policies that encouraged companies to ship all the good paying jobs, the jobs people were trained and educated to actually do, overseas?
You can't provide tax incentives to companies that ship work overseas with taxpayer (aka workers) money and then complain that taxpayers (aka workers) are a bunch of lazy non working needy bums when they no longer work because you used their money to put them in the situation they are now in....or something like that....nevermind, I'm checking facebook...
