But I'm sure you don't care, so just ignore all that.

Hope you get your wish in getting a saddle horse.

I took a job that gave me a pension and excellent medical care. Dont be jealous at what I have and you dont have. I earned it by working just like most of you people here work. I dont collect Welfare, Food Stamps, and free housing like other people do because they dont want to get off thier dead @ss and do the right thing and get a job. Im tired of my taxpaying money supporting deadbeats who don't want to find a job because they get the free handout. If your not collecting a pension not my fault. You should of found a job that would of given you a pension. Most of you here have no clue about military life and the strain it puts on a family.

Do you think that there are some, if not many or most, getting "government handouts" (Medicaid, unemployment, SCHIPS for kids, etc) that are not deadbeats? That these programs do serve as a safety net for our fellow Americans who are suffering a rough time? That folks get off these programs as soon as they can?

Yes, I agree there are deadbeats, but I do not think that is the majority of people getting these handouts.

Did I say everyone was a deadbeat? I pass by a food bank in my area when I go to my Post Office Box and check to see if I have any mail. Most of these people who are there have a nicer vehicle than me. Im sure it is in a relative or child's name. Yet that person is paying for the car and insurance.

I'm just trying to find out if you think the programs themselves are all inherently bad, and should be eliminated (like Dell does); or the programs are good but who gets aid needs to be carefully screened, etc.

I think alot of people who used to have good jobs have lost them, and yes, they still have the nice cars (and yes, the insurance hopefully) and the nice houses that went with having that money - but they need help to eat if they have families and kids.

Should they sell the car and buy a used beater, use the difference for food? Possibly, but I'm sure they just want help until they are employed again. Most charity places don't ask questions, but I can't imagine that people that don't need the help, and can afford all the groceries they want, are abusing it to walk in there to get free cans of soup and boxes of macaroni and cheese.

It would probably be a more progressive horse, rather than a conservative horse, however
