And we all take advantage of government entitlement programs and government benefits.
Just because you do and lie to yourself that everyone does it, does not mean the rest of us do.
It is frustrating to listen to folks complain about "welfare" and immigrants "taking advantage" of us while at the same time claiming they've "earned" their Social Security.
Most of us have had an incredible amount of money taken out of our paychecks since we were in our teens for SoSec, and the program was sold and promoted as a guaranteed pension program. So yes, we 'earned it'.
However, some of us were smart enough to know that the government raided and spent it all on themselves and that there was not going to be any benefits by the time we retired.
So I made other plans for my future while your government continues to rob me at gunpoint.
We all pay taxes while working adults to fund the spending of government,
The greatest evil and bane to liberty on the planet.
From free public education to subsidized college to unemployment compensation to disability benefts to lifetime old-age pensions and Medicare. These are all middle class entitlements, and they're all expensive.
There is no such thing as 'free'. 'Free public Communist indoctrination K-12' runs a parent an average of $800-$2000 per year in registration, fees, books, and other requirements if your income is middle class level. Only illegals, the poor and the welfare leeches get 'free' at the expense of everyone else, even if they do not have children. Meanwhile parents who work and own a house are required to PAY for 'FREE' publik screwel. So you can shove your stereotype just because you and yours sponge off it.
There's nothing wrong with that reality, except in having to listen to folks like yourself claim your dubious virtue while berating others.
You got a lot of nerve to make that statement .
