Sociopathic Nation

Shaming elite sociopaths is verboten in this current political climate, but shaming the poor for political gain isn't.

Need I remind these assholes that the poor DO pay taxes, not just income taxes, and have a stake in this country. The vast majority of the poor have worked and most continue to work but cannot afford to feed themselves because these assholes at the top of the economic heap continue to reap "rewards" they do not deserve and are getting them at everybody else's expense.

A "safety net" like food stamps is just that--a safety net. I am glad it has been there for me when I have needed it. I went from around 50k before being illegally fired to 21k on UI to 300 a month in a pension and sleeping on my brother's couch until I can somehow miraculously get back on my feet economically. Food stamps, the ONLY "handout" I am eligible to get as I am not over 65 or do not have young kids and am not disabled, has saved me from eating out of dumpsters.

This is not a case of somebody being "out of touch." This is demagoguery designed to further divide what remains of the middle class against their supposed "inferiors" while the real parasites, people like this editor and Mitt Romney, continue to scam taxpayers.
