    Not that I want improvement? What an idiotic, insulting thing to write after viewing my posts.

    "Whining anonymously on the internet leads nowhere." Then your next post...Oh the irony.

    Okay, let's get rid of the social safety net, people don't need it. You're alright with massive homelessness and hunger? It never ceases to amaze the lack of empathy and mean spiritedness of right-wingers.

    What about hunger? Take SNAP (food stamps) for instance. 75% enrolled are white, 12% are Black and 13% Hispanic, roughly the same proportion as in the general population. 84% have at least one family member working, but most work in service industry jobs which pay poorly. So, we the tax payers basically subsidize McDonalds so they can keep pay low and hamburgers cheap.

    Yeah, these people are just looking for free stuff and you don't like or respect them.

    You can find evidence in my posts if you're interested, but I'm not starting over.

    Apparently it was inadequate to convince so if that's all you can muster I guess you have failed.

    Oh, how do you know. Did you take a poll?

    Your poll was insufficient. No good options.

    You would understand that if you read my posts clearly you didn't.

    You'd rather cry about that than discuss the topic I guess.

    The purpose of most of these threads is not to foster a discussion but to declare a position and attack those who oppose it.
