16. I don't know how many times I've seen variations on the "just want free stuff"

meme..In my opinion it's code for: Lazy Black People on Welfare"

I've read more than once that Democrats just want "free stuff".

WTF is it with the 'free stuff" shit?...My last response to this

crap was basically: My spouse and I are both democrats, both

worked all our lives, both came from working class union households,

and now our income income is in six figures, so, no, we don't need any "free stuff",

I AM, however, glad to help those not as fortunate as myself and my family.

Obviously, there IS no "free stuff", because it's paid for by taxes from "we the people",

because "we the people", as a society, decided to be a DECENT society

and help the needy and unfortunate, whatever their race or ethnicity.

I hate these cheap, mean-spirited bastards!

Was it really a tax credit or was it a deduction? tk2kewl Jul 2012 #6
I only see one problem. Tax credit is refers to income, not welfare. The black welfare lie freshwest Jul 2012 #8
When you hear Republicans talk about "Income Tax" they're talking about tax paid on interest Spitfire of ATJ Jul 2012 #9
