    People have many wishes and that things make sense and not be overly indulgent and wasteful are subject to other wishes, like not having to worry about affording medical care for yourself and loved ones.

    It may be a good thing, because the complaints may end. However, some people say that white people should leave and go back to Europe as well, so it is fair play...

    lol, we could leave the US in the capable hands of the tribes that were here when Europeans got here.

    what could go wrong?

    Hell, I'd just pay to have them take a tour of the Aboriginal camps in Australia, they would think differently about good old Merika then :)

    Australian Aboriginals put in Camps by the Government #shorts #aboriginal #covid19 #lockdown - YouTube

    Every member of the most primitive societies on earth, knows what they have to do to keep themselves and their community afloat.

    NEVER convince yourself this is a function of ignorance. In so doing you both paternalise, and perpetuate the problem by ignoring it in favour of something 'easier'.

    Yep .. our pal is like a broken record. Every time you rattle his house of cards, he retreats into mantra'd tangents.

    Well white people complaining about America she go try living in parts of Europe.

    People that complain about how racist the US is maybe they should live somewhere else.

    1) So? You're talking about a very unusual and tiny demographic of oddballs who live outside ordinary society. If you have to resort to this kind of extrem to find 'solid ground' in your position, you're ****ed.

    2) Yes, because the Welfare State measures need in dollars. Need is a state of being, not a dollar amount. You can only know someone is in need via the state of their being (prior to the point they put their hand out). Did they BEHAVE like someone in need, or did they not? That's where the crucial information is found. A millionaire could spend a weekend in Vegas and blow the lot. Is he in need? Of course not. But the Welfare State would say he is, and thus start funding him. Meantime, someone who did everything right all their lives, but were wiped out in some disaster .. might miss out because they do not meet an arbitrary 'dollar' criteria. It's freaking despicable.

    3) Poor people are multiple times more likely to be obese than non-poor people. If your wife is in nutrition, she would know this. Meantime, do those hungry six year olds have fat parents? Are their parents eating? WHY are they hungry? If the answer lies anywhere near 'personal choices on the part of their parents', you're making the problem worse by enabling it. These slum-dwelling kids don't go to school hungry, because they have responsible parents:

    The First World 'poor' have been enabled to spend themselves into ever deeper poverty. We actually think it's our right to live beyond our means ... to the point that when a very reasonable profile of 'poor behaviour' is presented, we freak out and cry 'bullshit!'. We're actually offended.

    Some lands were conquered, America is one of them, so is Mexico, Central and South America and who can forget Australia and to the victor goes the spoils. From what I see, with the exception of China, no one is in a rush to conquer Africa.

    100% true and you know it. Welfare is granted according to your assets. It's strictly about dollars.

    The rich gambler can end up destitute via his choices, yet be eligible for welfare. Like I said, it's despicable.

    Natives and Blacks could probably get along. I don't know where Jane will be, she probably will be dead soon, but she is leaving a legacy....as for Eric Stone, I don't know where he would go.

    Are you actually going to try and claim welfare is handed out to anyone who asks for it?

    How are recipients 'qualified' for welfare?

    Is it according to their FINANCIAL circumstances? Or is it their nice smile?

    Do they have a job, how much they make, number of children, expenses, etc.
