You realize this is already a program? Anyone that meets eligibility for SNAP is eligible to receive a phone. The number of minutes per month is very limited, I have had extremely thankful individuals use these to get jobs after I issue them benefits. These phones have very literally saved lives. But yeah, go fuck yourself basically.
So the argument is now that we need to keep Obama out of office to prevent him from creating a program that started in the 1930s? Are you implying that if we vote for Obama then we'll get time travel?

I don't think the critics of that program realize that's where their phone goes once they toss it in the "used phone bin" at Best Buy.

Posted: Sep 27 2012 at 6:46 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) You do realize that it's because of idiotic social programs like this (and idiots like you) is the reason why millions of people think it's the government job to take care of them from cradle to grave and will never be convinced that we are going broke (it's because some "evil rich guy won't give them more of their money) and they should be responsible for their own lives? That people like this women will always vote to make sure their "free" money keeps rolling in.

If only there was a politician who would talk about this...Oh wait.
Liberalism only survives by forcing people to be dependent on it.
Do you realize that you are not even worth arguing with? You have not an ounce of sympathy, compassion, or charity in you. You are a piece of shit and I feel sorry for you.
You are not even worth the effort of proper sentence structure.
Apparently worth responding to though.

Is all I'm hearing.
Please "talk up" if your comprehension white-shifts. I will use simple-happy language-words to help you understand.

Well, the real problem is that he has not an ounce of intelligence or reason. Sympathy, compassion and charity are all optional.
I hope he loses his job and gets mugged.

For what it's worth (ignoring that it's a Slate article)...The BLS Just Discovered Almost 400,000 Missing Jobs in Its Rebenchmarking
It would seem that the economy is growing while government is shrinking. How 'bout that.
Quote:
Note that the benchmarking added a net of 386,000 jobs. In gross terms it actually subtracted 67,000 government jobs so the rebalancing of the American economy away from government employment and toward the private sector has actually gone somewhat further than we realized. Note that this also means that the Obama Era has crossed the symbolically important zero line. More Americans are employed today than were when he took office.

Yes we get that radical liberals, much like radical muslims, have to resort to vicious attacks when confronted with free will. Go hug a @#%^ing tree you fascist **** pig. Take your ideas of how best to enslave society and shove them up your *** and strike a match.
Not only do I have a job, it involves helping one of the most evil of American corporations steal money from the populace.
Isn't there a thumbs-up smiley?

Once upon a time a terrible thing happened to the company I was working for. They lost the lease on their huge building because their rent was going up, and the only replacement in town within their monthly budget was a great deal smaller. When they discovered they were going to have to consolidate a bit and start downsizing, they began planning to merge departments. My department was merged with another department, and they combined management staffs. Since I was not cross trained with the other department, but their supervisors and managers were cross trained with mine, my department's management staff was the first to feel the axe. I was abruptly laid off, through no real fault of my own.
I was unemployed for five months. My then fiance, now husband, was a graduate student getting paid peanuts and could not support us both on his salary alone. Unemployment insurance meant 1. We were not evicted from our apartment and 2. We didn't starve. It amounted to about $800 a month after I paid income taxes on it (yes, you may have to pay income taxes on your unemployment insurance, if your total income including it might tip you over the income taxable amount. I figured it was better to get it out of the way.)
I eventually found another job, but I had the luxury of the safety net catching me.

Hell, I chucked phone books and did the Census when I was between "real" jobs. Then I was even able to quit one job for a better.

You should be proud of your past, even if it involves giving handjobs behind the truck stop. Especially if those handjobs keep you from accepting dirty, dirty welfare money.
