considering the pentagon budget dwarfs individuals' welfare as does corporate welfare, bitching about individuals getting help that's needed is retarded
Entitlements are the largest expenditure in the budget, not "corporate welfare", not defense.

Or that asshole Big Pharma guy that jacked the price of medication 4000% and smirked in front of Congress when they questioned his ethical behavior over it. These are the "dont tread on me" fucks laughing all the way to the bank.

are we discussing entitlements or welfare? social security isn't welfare. can't hit the target if you constantly move it.
Welfare IS an entitlement. Redefining "entitlement" isn't working for you. Do you own a dictionary? Do you know what a dictionary is?

New heights of stupidity have been reached.

Motherfucker thinks he's smarter than Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Jean-Jacques Rousseau ?? Oh my gawd 3 names!!! Well then....Rob Fucking Bigfoot Roy !! That's 4 names, I win!

Okay smarty pants, explain why something that is wrong if you or I engage in it, can shift to something that is right if lots more people do the exact same wrong thing ? How does that magic occur?

sorry to break bad on ya but defense spending is currently at 54% of the budget so it does dwarf all other spending. corporate welfare does dwarf welfare

i'm not redefining entitlements, i'm explaining them to you. you changed your narrative from welfare to entitlements. i said social security wasn't an entitlement since we all pay into it

You do realize that only thru a government action did the protected monopoly occur in the first place?

Defense and international security assistance: Another 18 percent of the budget, or $615 billion, paid for defense and security-related international activities. The bulk of the spending in this category reflects the underlying costs of the Defense Department. The total also includes the cost of supporting operations in Afghanistan and other related activities, described as Overseas Contingency Operations in the budget, funding for which totaled $92 billion in 2014.

I think you lie.........
Whether we all "pay into it" (all don't pay into it) is irrelevant. It is an entitlement. Once again, you don't get to define words.

do you build your own roads, schools, military?

I see you have decided not to answer the question I asked you. Why not? Is it because you cannot?



All of the things you mentioned can be built thru voluntary cooperation, right? In fact since you agreed with me that none of us have superior rights to others, you would be disagreeing with YOURSELF, if you advocated roads, schools , military arise by imposing them on people thru an involuntary process.

(By the way, I'm kicking your ass here and think I will go consume some plant matter. You have a good night
and let me know how the disagreement you are having with your own belief system turns out. )

That government action was put into place by politicians spuouting that laissez faire capitalism bullshit you propose.

I am an advocate for free markets. Truly, free markets.

I am not an advocate for politicians, corporations or 3rd party interventions between consenting buyers and sellers. Which of those things do you favor or not?

You got no bite? Think that guy has a job now, havne't had to endure his garbage much last few months so you might just be on your own.



corporate welfare is $92 billion vs social welfare is at $59 billion

relevancy and facts are becoming a boot in your ass
Whats wrong with fixing both problems? It isn;t just one or the other, and both are out of control.
