Prank Call Of Cthulhu

I would also say it doesn't give us the right to sit and judge them either.

Nor does it give us the right to want to take away their legal rights from them as well.

And where are these required jobs going to come from? Mitt Romney can only use so many stablehands and landscapers.

I'll give you that; but there are are very few people on disability that really can't work. They must have worked at some point in their lives to be able to get the benefit. I do see many that are trying to work under the table so that thier benefits don't get cut. AND just because someone has kids doesnot give them the right to sit home and not work...

The difference is a conviction... Most politicians are crooks... yet they aren't in jail and they still get to vote...

Yes, **** all of those disabled people. If they would just get up and walk to work, all these troubles would be gone.

By live independantly I mean should not be living off the masses. If you live in government housing and get foodstamps, get on the government bus and do not work at all why should you be able to vote? What's the differance in that and being a federal inmate?

I disagree... We all should be allowed to vote no matter our financial situation.. A homemaker can't make it without her husband/ partner but she should still be able to vote...

Prank, I don't think that people who cannot live independantly should be able to vote so, I do not think they should be able to dictate anything that I or anybody else should or shouldn't do...

So, I'm guessing you also think that women who are stay at home moms aren't allowed the right to vote either?

You can go to the meetings for your area and petition for speed limit signs and soforth

My tax dollars pay for the roads that you drive on. Does this mean I can dictate who drives on them and how fast they can drive?

Well, they seem very happy- taking five or so pizzas out home with them. I'm glad that they have vibrant social lives and enjoy themselves while dining on thier government pizza with a few buds...

It is legal as long as they don't dine in... That's what I have been told...

I guess if its my tax dollars paying them to eat, yes? It just seams wrong to me.

So I'm just curious.... if you want to decide what the poor can and can not eat, does this mean they can tell you how to live your life on issues?

So, I got home late from work last night and thought I'd call in one of those pizzas at the gas station on Yellow Banks road. I have heard that for gas station pizza it's pretty good. I googled the name and called in the order- upon the close of the conversation the lady says "how will you be paying"? I said with money....? I get there and put 2 and 2 together- They take foodstamps for pizzas and stuff. What I want to know is why is that OK? What's stopping people from going to Burger King or something and buying whoppers and stuff with foodstamps? Why do they need to know before you get there what you'll be paying with? You know the people who get foodstamps should be on a budget and shouldn't be wasting them eating gas station pizza. This puzzles me...Is it legal for restaurants to accept them? (I don't think it should be)
