Found this on my desk this AM at work from a right winger. So wrong on so many levels [View all]

Obviously the writer has been brainwashed by a steady stream of Fox/Rush/Beck etc for writing this pile of excrement......

Wake up America
This young lady, age 21 has got it right!!!!
And she is from Waco
Don’t you agree?
“If you can’t fix it with a hammer, you’ve got an electrical problem”

Written by a 21 year old female, Wow. This girl has a great plan! Love the last thing she would do the best.

This was written by a 21 year old female who gets it. It’s her future she’s worried about and this is how she feels about the social welfare big government state that she’s being forced to live in! These solutions are just common sense in her opinion.

This was in the Waco Tribune Herald, Waco, TX November 18, 2011

PUT ME IN CHARGE…

Put me in charge of food stamps, I’d get rid of Lone Star cards; no cash for Ding Dongs or Ho HO’s, just money for 50 pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese and all the powered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza then get a job.

Put me in charge of Medicaid. The first thing I’d do is to get woman Norplant birth control implants or tubal legations. Then, we’ll test recipients for drugs, alcohol and nicotine. If you want to reproduce or use drugs, alcohol, or smoke, then get a job.

Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean good state of repair. Your home “ will be subject to inspections anytime and possessions will be inventoried. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and you own place.

In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a “government” job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22 inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the “common good”.

Before you write that I’ve violated someone’s rights, realize that all of the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules. Before you say that this would be “demeaning” and ruin their “self esteem,” consider that it wasn’t that long ago that taking someone else’s money for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self esteem.

If we are expected to pay for other people’s mistakes we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices.

AND while you are on Govt subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes, that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving Govt welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job.

Now if you have the guts pass it on…

MY COMMENT IS, THIS YOUNG GIRL DOESN'T REALIZE THAT SOME DAY SHE MIGHT NEED THE SO CALLED "EVIL GOVERNMENT" HELP AND WILL ONE DAY REGRET SHE WROTE THIS. THIS HAS SO MUCH RIGHT WING GARBAGE AND STEREOTYPES YOU KNOW SHE IS TALKING ABOUT MINORITIES WHILE NOT REALIZING MORE WHITE PEOPLE ARE ON GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE THAN MINORITIES
