6. Did you see when Bartlett said that the Gov shouldn't welfare
to American Citizens?

So that got me to thinking, this is one of their main agenda items that they have been screaming about..Welfare Government...

Well, if every American has paid, is paying or will pay FICA and they want the money back via Social Security, Medicaid etc....then it's not welfare is it?

Now lets say * were to get his way and naturalize all of the illegal people in this country that would enable them to collect from our "Tax Money coffers", without having really paid into the system, (This would be welfare in a sense, wouldn't it?)

Now look at the Corporations who are getting huge tax breaks, huge sums of money of tax payer money and yet they take their businesses off shore to avoid paying taxes....(This would be welfare right?)

This is an angle that needs to be exploited by the Dems every chance we can get...
