Hate the government

Is it normal to hate the government for only wanting to help the Welfare bums and the super-rich? By which, I mean giving them insane amounts of money and tax breaks. Meanwhile it creates a very hard world for us hard-working middle class people!!!!! I am so fed up with it.

Before people start to call me a hater and bash me for speaking about welfare people, I would like to point out that my husband and I pay an INSANE amount of taxes every year. He is taxed about 40%% of his income, and I get taxed about 20%%. It's rediclous. And do we get any of it back? HELL NO!!!!!!!!

The other thing is I don't have health benefits at work yet, so I had to drop my perscripton drugs when I lost my old job. Not good, since I need anti-depressants and such. But if I was a welfare bum, the government would GIVE me those pills for FREE!!!! But I'm a working person, so I have to pay $250 for a 3-month supply. WTF? No thanks.

So is it normal for me to be fed up with our governments?

    I almost agree with the first poster. Capitalism is starting to become the problem. The rich get everything, the middle class works for significantly less than what they make their boss, and the poor are left behind. Reasearch the Communist Manefesto, it will open your eyes.

  • It's not about scamming but people who think "if the governments giving me money then why should I work"
    I understand the people who lost their job so they go on welfare then make an honest attempt at finding another one.

    F*CK YEAH. I hate the American government and the capitalism. This country should be socialist (communist). I know, people here think that communism is bad. That is if it is carried out in a bad way. If America could try communism, our country could be saved.

    Try living in the uk. Our government pays immigrints a substational amount of money more than their own citizens in benifits.

    Lol, you do not sound middle class, you are Working Class!

    Just remember if poor people dont get paid out, then society cannot operate, as law of the jungle will mean the strongest will and take what you have.

    A lot of people on welfare are not welfare bums as you refer to them. They could have lost their jobs through thr ressesion (have to question if you have been living on another planet these past few years). We're not all perfect sorry x

    oh yea, im sure everyone who is on welfare is just living it up as the king's of this country. just like the mexicans who break their backs picking fruit for everyone's selfish face who WON'T take those jobs.. yea i bet they're happier than all of us who actually have the option to be a paid-bum on stolen soil which ironically (and this is true) BELONGED TO THEM! the middle-class needs to thank their lucky stars they weren't born into a 3rd world country (next door, maybe? down south?)and start blaming the problems ONLY on the elite. The poor are suffering from lack of money that the wealthiest bathe in daily. THAT'S the problem.

    • Oh man I could go on for hours about how wealthy people WASTE their money on useless things. I'm tellin ya, if I ever won the lottery or made it big, I would give back to the community and to the people and animals who need it the most! I've been telling people I would build a nice animal shelter in my area and look after all the homeless pets and give them love and attention. I would put my money to good use, instead of buying boats and other materialistic stuff.

    fuckin right my cousin is milking the system for everything and it makes me sick he says has some stupid fuckin disorder which he dont where he says he cannot leave his house through fear of getting hurt by criminals and cannot get a job because he is scared of getting stabed on his way to work so the british goverment pay his rent and give him 300 POUNDS to sit on his arse all day and smoke dope but my mum can barely walk some days because of missing joints in her spine but every month she has to prove she cant work to get 150 pounds a week.
    have just three more words to say.

    • Wow that sucks, man! My brother gets money from the government too. He works but is considered low income, so he and his gf get $600 a month in "family allowance" since they have a child. Yet if my hubby and I had a baby tomorrow, he would get jack shit!! >:(

    Yes I agree. It's pathetic how America says how great our country is and we give all our money to foriegn countries for abortions and feed and clothe them but then get back to the states and we have children starving cause they're not able to collect assistance. Then you have all these freaking Mexican crossing the border illegally just to live off our countries money. Freaking nasty ghettos full of disgusting welfare bums who can't work because they're lazy and can get my tax money just for sitting on their asses and our tax money pays for their food, home, car, drugs and alcohol. It's crazy to see the vehicles these welfare bums drive. Souped up cars with rims so big that it makes them look utterly uneducated. I despise welfare bums with every bone in my body. I think they shouldn't be allowed to drink nor do drugs if they collect welfare at all. I'm tired of working my ass off for them to live it up. They amaze me how they can't work due to a disability or whatever but they can drink out in the streets rob people. They walk the streets at all hours of the night. There are jobs out there for every American citizen. Not damn foriegners who do not have citizenship either. Take your ass back to your country and get out of mine. I can't stand what our country has come to. It's disgusting. And to think we have a foriegners for our freaking president. All hell has broken loose now. I am seriously disgusted.

  • By Welfare bum, I mean the 90%% who are scamming the system. I do feel bad for the 10%% on it who actualy really do need it.

    • Well its probably 2%% scamming 98%% not - at least from studies I've seen, which illustrate that tax fraud is more prevalent than welfare fraud. And if you are from the US, a whole whack of people don't even qualify. So they wonder your streets.

        • I'm from eastern Canada, so they are WELL taken care of, trust me!!! I can list at least 10 people off the top of my head right now who are samming the system. It's pretty sad, to be honest with you, especially since they are fully capable of working but simply choose not to.

  • I really don't think it is kind of you to call people who can not work because they have disabilities, terminal illnesses, or are moms with sick children or who are escaping wife beaters "Welfare Bums."

    I agree that the middle class gets screwed. But it screws itself by not lobbying for the programs they benefit more from, and, by expecting European programs on American tax rates.
