How far off you think the detection rate is from the actual #? 60%? I doubt it, it's a good program and you have no reason to bash it1% detection rate...
Damn son, you're out of your element.
"Disability".whats the reason for not being able to work for the food ?
So if it's such a good programme, why are you advocating people steal?How far off you think the detection rate is from the actual #? 60%? I doubt it, it's a good program and you have no reason to bash it
Life is not black and white like that, shit I'm sure most people on this forum work in a grey areaIt's either good and does the job or isn't.
Man is a hunter/gatherer been that way since the beginning of time, do you really think that man will not steal to feed his Family, shiiiit.
PC or the law will never trump the needs of my Family. Even animals will take/steal from other animals to feed their Family.
Actually they worked together and shared the spoils, hence the evolution of modern society...Man is a hunter/gatherer been that way since the beginning of time, do you really think that man will not steal to feed his Family, shiiiit.

DRASTICALLY less, to the point where taxes are less than interest on their fortunes, so their wealth grows without any effort or risk of loss on their part. This leads to a 'donor class' of people who can afford to make unlimited campaign contributions and control politics to create a 'leisure' class where they never need actually work... and finally an 'aristocratic' class emerges- much like the Europe our Founding Fathers worked so hard to escape from and the rise of which they feared as a primary threat to their fledgling democracy.Again the rich pay less as a percentage of income than I do
Nope, it's lefty horseshit.DRASTICALLY less, to the point where taxes are less than interest on their fortunes, so their wealth grows without any effort it risk of loss on their part.

The difference in % only matter if you earn the same amount.
Which is the greater $$$$ amount that actually pays for services that the wealthy person will probably never use?
This is why a practical form of leftism never took off in the US, yous have to take everything a step too far.
If you stopped spending so much on bombs you could have Universal Healthcare and better social programmes without "sticking it to the rich".
Defense was 22% of the US federal budget in 2015 and healthcare 27%. Perhaps you are referring to discretionary spending?That sounds great the problem with that is Congress won't (Repulicans) let that happen, the pentagon budget is more than half of the annual operating budget for the Government.
Health Care has always been as elusive as unicorns. Until Obama, we know the ACA needs work, but they won't help.

I read just fine. The chart you posted says "Discretionary Spending". FYI, this does not include entitlement programs.
22% of the GDP, not the budget. Do you ever know what you are talking about?Or do you just regurgitate stuff you read? Defense and Homeland Security use 54% of the budget for FY2015.
