@d2d, how would you feel about your fictional, elderly friend receiving welfare checks and food stamps?
He wants to work and won't take welfare. He did get food stamps but only after I personally dragged his ass to DHS. Right now he's working part time getting paid under minimum wage under the table. He's a vet and already would have free healthcare at the VA but he won't take that either.
Believe it or not, a lot of baby boomers were taught self reliance. Just because the system is set up now as a social welfare state doesn't mean that your government's "customers" want that or will take it.
Between Section 8 benefits, Obamacare, food stamps, SSA, SSA Disability, VA disability, and VA non-service pension benefits, there should absolutely be nobody homeless; but there are millions of homeless. Interesting fact, there are more vacant foreclosed houses than homeless.
Social welfare only works for people who want social welfare. Funny how that functions.
The first thing I learned in business was to listen to my customers, no matter what I was selling; legal advice, investments, anything. Odd how politicians think they have all the answers and never ask their customers what they want.
Boomers are the most narcissistic, entitled generation ever.
Their parents bled for this country and they Woodstock'd instead.
I feel absolutely no sympathy for that age group. They had the world by its dick and fucked it up.
The only wood stock I know about was on my M-14. But I defer to you for knowing everything about my generation.
