You are, without a doubt, a 47%er. You are dependent on your ssdi and most likely your medical bills are being paid by Medicaide. I am paying for your care through my taxes. I don't mind though, that is what these programs are for. My other comment is that during difficult times, it is important to have dreams and keep a positive attitude. Certainly only a very small portion of the population can afford a boat of any kind, much less an inboard ski boat, but nothing happens if you don't plan and set goals. I hope you succeed in your quest for another ski boat. I claim to be a 47% Dig Boy, but that may be a little misleading. I pay about the same tax rate as Romney. |

And while we are at it, why don't we just go ahead and lump all of our military retirees in there too. Wouldn't want them living off the govt. Better tell them to get a job and send it back to Uncle Sam. Wouldn't want them buying something foolish like a ski boat off their govt. check.

I get tired of your snide remarks. I dont ever remember demeaning you because of your differing beliefs than we, as CHRISTIANS hold. I personally dont understand how anyone can think that everything in nature just "happened" to fall together. Please, Ohhhhh Please, explain how the universe just "happend"? A massive explosion of material (Where did the "material" come from?)to create land, water, light, seasons, etc. OK we have earth ... BUT WAIT, theres more?........ Oh yeah,.....Then, by chance.. dah,dah,dah,dahhhhhh,.... LIFE!!!!!... even in its simplest form... from WHAT? Not to mention that very first cell "happening" to divide itself into two, then four, then eight, etc... WOW we have a"blob" of cells...... Dang, we forgot the organs... OK,lets start with a "simple" little eye.......... So, now these little cells have to "evolve" into an eye that can focus, admit light, and "somehow" magically turn this into sight? Oh, wait, we have "few" more organs to go.. (Are we getting close to your ancestral monkeys yet?) ..... ................And science today cant even cure the common cold.
I believe YOU just did. Billy had the right idea a couple weeks ago ........... . |

I could you even put me in the 47% when I never have been. You think I like being in my postion. I was living off morphine and codine for pain, and I have climbed the biggest mountain ever was. My doctor off course, told my parents and family, we need to get Lee some help. They set me up on it. I got to take care of myself first. Cause nobody else will! My father raised me, YOU DONT WORK, YOU DONT EAT. I am also not NR with my money. So I save for what I have lost. Living off the goverment sucks to high heavan. I cant wait for the doctor to relaese me and go back to work. But is what programs are for, just like you said. And Romeny's tax rate is what is the law they should pay. If you dont like it, change the law. Until then, hush!! |

I am not Belittling you for taking advantage of the programs. It would be foolish not to. My point is that these are good programs that help good people, like you. Anyone who has had to rely on the government for assistance knows that they only provide the basics, and everyone I know who has used them can't wait to get back to work. I hope you are able to do so soon, and you can make some progress toward that boat. Good luck! |

first of all I do know what its like being down and out my oldest son was killed at 14 in a car accident having walked out the door of my house and jumped in a car . had i not just responded to a girl who broke her neck falling off a horse I would have been home and caught him before he left..as i arrived back at the station my fellow firefighters were there waiting for me . it has taught me many things I am more compassionate far less religious , ready at a moments notice to care for others. what i did above was read your statement it said in so many words that u were collecting ssi and saving for a boat . sorry but in my opinion it sounded like you were taking advantage of a system, i do however have to apologize for not thinking... not remembering that u were only taking what you paid in.. i should have read it closer or thought about where the $ comes from i just got caught up in all the government programs that people do take advantage of.

Being down and out stinks. I have never had to be in this situtation before. I am sorry about your son. Tragic story. Apology accepted, this is why I choose to explain myself so my CCFans will understand that I am not like others and have goals in life to achieve. I have paid in a bunch, and as I said before they calculated what I was able to recieve every month. That in itself Peter, I am thankful to have recieved the help becuse if not I been on the street with nothing and sick sick. There is alot of people out there that they love that free ride. Handout might I say. Thats what makes me sick like when Obama took the unemployment benefits to 99wks. Its crazy. No harm intended and I hope there are people that you have to do it for yourself and not let someone support you. These programs are to help you get back on your feet. |

This problem is not limited to Illinois. Here is a list of the 32 states now in bankruptcy. Funny, the amount spent on these two moron wars could have paid off all of their debt with plenty left over. Debt in millions: California $6,900 Michigan 3,900 New York 3,200 Penn. 3,000 Ohio 2,300 Illinois 2,200 N.C. 2,100 Indiana 1,700 New Jersey 1,700 Florida 1,600 Wisconsin 1,400 Texas 1,000 S.C. 886 Kentucky 795 Missouri 722 Connecticut 498 Minnesota 477 Georgia 416 Nevada 397 Mass. 387 Virginia 346 Arkansas 330 Alabama 283 Colorado 253 R.I. 225 Idaho 202 Maryland 133 Kansas 88 Vermont 33 S.D. 24 Tennessee 21 Virgin Islands 13 Delaware 12 |

Everybody has a sad story. And I'm not diminishing anyone's sad story.
The vast majority of people getting government assistance have similar sad stories and really need the help. The large numbers of people who are homeless, mentally disabled, and the down and out on the streets barely existing can use a little help too. The various religious organizations can't or won't take care of all who need help(So let's get rid of abortion?-how many more unwanted people do you need?). Too many unwanted, unloved, forgotten souls left to wander the streets picking through your garbage to eat a few crumbs from your burger. Why would you guys care a rat's azz about politics if everything is God's will? and since God created everything why would you exert any type of control over God's will by using man made medicines and such to alter the course of things? Why would you not see the value of that beetle? that tree? that fish? You guys have mentioned "tards" What was God thinking by severely mentally retarding so many people? Was the message that even God goes "oops" sometimes? |

"Those who think will be first will be last, and those who are last will be first". Sadly, many women put their faith in the Supreme Court, rather than in the Supreme Being, God, who said in Exodus 20:13, “Thou shalt not kill”. In Jeremiah 1:5, God says: "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations." The bible condemns homosexuality in Leviticus 20:13, Romans 1:26-27, & 1 Timothy 8-10. Then, you will be free to pursue your own self interests without any artificial constraints on your way of thinking. And that is a sure recipe for hell. The devil is only too happy for people to make up their own moral codes based on what they “feel” is right. |

Big debate tonight. Sounds like they are trying to attach testicles to Obama for the event (loaners from Hillary?). The problems with testicles, as Biden demonstrated, is the a-hole is never far behind. It should be interesting.

at least Obama isnt on the hook for the libya fiasco . Hillary takes the blame? why does it fall on her shoulders only? her statement this morning was basically that she oversees 60,000 personnel and its her responsibilty
seems to me that Obama should take the blame too and say he oversees 60,001 people |
