How ugly do YOU find the Republican claims that jobless benefits are a kind of addiction?

They keep acting like people are somehow HOOKED on social assistance.

Which is weird, since I've never heard of anybody getting a buzz off of social assistance.

4. "They keep acting like people are somehow HOOKED on social assistance."

Perhaps because they're hooked on the money flow from their corporate masters, and their masters are hooked on tax cuts.

But this actually proves the point that free money is an addiction. Individual vs Corporation doesn't make one less or more susceptible.

8. These f-ers know there are no decent paying jobs out there ...

at least there aren't tons of them just sitting open. They THINK everybody could go to work making minimum wage, with no benefits,and that's what they want. They want the majority of people to get into a poverty state where they have no rights, no future, no hope. Because these f-ers think that is what people like us deserve. Because we aren't "blessed". Because we are not them. Because they want to make sure there is enough of a difference between us and them that they can be assured of their supremacy forever.

Sorry, it's just really starting to get to me.

It's your DemCare that got all the employers to downgrade everyone to part-time so...

13. Essentially, they're STILL mad that we got rid of slavery.

Let's just admit it....they still want THAT back...only this time, without discrimination on the basis of race.

Someone please explain to me how wanting people to have their own source of income, own their own home, educate their own children, supply their own sustenance, own firearms, etc etc etc is supposed to be slavery.

In real slavery the master never allows the slave to be self-sufficient or armed because then the slave can escape the master.

Slavery always has been and always will be the product of those who imagine themselves better than their fellow man. It will never be an instrument for those who see all men as equal in law and ability to seek their own fortunes.

Slavery is the sole policy of the Democratic party.

Hey DUmmies you tell us Obama gave us a roaring economy, now you say there are no jobs out there? Make up your minds.

[USA4ME]

Anytime you want to talk about abuses in the welfare system and how it does create dependence, libs always go for the "corporate welfare" card. It's one of the most dishonest tactics they conduct, and it's all because they know it's a topic they can't defend.

Yeah, you libs have created a permanent dependent underclass and you continually exploit them with promises you have no intention of keeping. What you've done is worse than slavery.

Yet if someone starts a thread at the DUmp about all the free things they have a "Right" to it is like a pack of hyenas around a dying cape buffalo.

Wow, sounds WAY more like those poor souls stuck in the slums, subsisting on welfare and hand-outs, no jobs, no education, no chance...  Now, which party is it that keeps people there, and still gets all their votes?

There are decent paying jobs out there for decent people who work hard and don't expect everything to be given to them, don't sue over a paper cut, and don't bring the hatred you guys exhibit on a daily basis.

I don't know not one conservative who believes everyone should work minimum wage with no benefits, in fact we understand that minimum wage jobs are started jobs mostly for teens.  Somehow you thinking flipping burgers and taking orders should be a career on par with a doctor.

They want the majority of people to get into a poverty state where they have no rights, no future, no hope.

By they you must mean democrats.  Again, I have wrote this crap ad nausem but I have never in my life meet a conservative that feels this way only democrats.  And most the business owners I have worked for have been conservatives that took very good care of us.  I mean I was making like $35,000 salary, $5,000 Christmas bonus, $10,000 a year in my 401K...  All this from a uber Republican.  Guess what my boss was gay.  We were one big family, still people working there that have been there nearly 20 years.  And this is just one case, I have worked for 3 companies like this over the alst 15 years all ran by Christian conservatives.

Mrs. Maxiest works for probably one of the most greedy evil business owners I have ever meet in my life.  Pays horrible, treats people horrible, no benefits, makes his truck drivers work for $10 an hour and 70 hours a week.  Refuses to pay them whether the loads are delivered or not after the 70 hours.  Get your truck stuck on a farm? Well that cost $1500 to tow out and he takes it out of your check although he is riding you hard to make sure the load is delivered no matter what.  This guy breaks all kinds of trucking laws, tax laws, labor laws... GUESS WHAT?  Big ole D!

This thread started by DUmmy Ken Burch proves just how stupid they are.  They clearly have no effing clue how to look at the information that is out there and think for themselves.

I'm confused how an economic genius like Obama has not made every person a millionaire. that is pretty much what he ran on, spreading the wealth around.

Much like AGW cultists, socialists will always refuse to look at the results their policies and theories produce, or don't produce. It is always someone else's fault for their failed theories failing again.

Wait, What? The Copperheads, during the Civil War, did everything they could to confound Lincoln and constantly badgered for an end to the war. In the end, it was Lincoln and the Republicans that finished slavery in this country. The loser demoncrats set up the KKK and enacted Jim Crow.

Let's just admit it....they still want THAT back...only this time, without discrimination on the basis of race.

When one considers affirmative action, set-asides, hiring quotas based on race, school enrollment quotas based on race, it seems to me that KanBitch is a bit confused.  All those things are forms of discrimination. 

They are saying in effect that one race cannot make it without the benevolence of the other, that one race is incapable of success without assistance from the the other.

They want the majority of people to get into a poverty state where they have no rights, no future, no hope.

If that was the case, we would be cheering the incredible competence of Emperor Telewoobie McFoodstamps and his pederast-led Senate.

He's really doing a fine job of it.  You should be proud.

That sounds like welfare dependency to me. At least with most minimum wage jobs there's a chance of some upward mobility. I'm not aware of any merit promotions to a higher welfare check, though, nor any particular work experience it imparts to you except checking your mailbox once a month. I guess you could get a job with a mailbox manufacturer, though, opening and closing the lid to make sure it functions.

Their logic makes no sense to me....

Why would we want the people to remain in a poverty state? Most of those people vote Dem.

As a bonus, you can count on Paul's full support.
The libs have conjured a present day plantation.
I love the name of the thread. The image is so palpable. The title is so descriptive.

[Jmartin]

Someone needs to tell them it was a Republican that ended slavery, and the KKK was founded by Democrats. For heaven's sake FDR was a clan member. Democrat's opposed every single civil rights bill ever put forward. Repealed the civil rights granted to blacks after the end of slavery. Expanded slavery. Opposed the end of slavery. Introduced and passed the Jim Crow laws. The list goes on. Even JFK opposed Civil Rights even though he eventually signed the civil rights act. Sorry Dumbasses your party has a long long history of racism and discrimination. Don't believe me go ahead and look it up.

[Big Dog]

Even JFK opposed Civil Rights

JFK was not opposed to civil rights. He gave a speech in July of 1963, in which he asked Congress to pass a civil rights bill. He had support from congressional Republicans, and opposition from his fellow Democrats. A Democrat stalled the bill in the House.

even though he eventually signed the civil rights act.

Pretty neat trick, with him being dead for almost a year.

Says a supporter of a political party whos policies are designed to funnel idiots like you into that "poverty state" and keep them there, forever beholden to them.

Yeah, but like a good democrat, did he vote ?
