So you’d be ok with taking people’s hard earned money? Sorry I can’t help you, as it has never crossed my mind on ways to take people’s money.

Haven't you heard: It's not your or my hard earned money anymore ... it's the government's... and I'm entitled to it [/sarcasm].

Desperate times call for desperate measures .... sometimes the best weapon against an enemy is the same one they are using against you ...

Do you think we would have won the American Revolution without employing guerrilla tactics? Or, would we be like the Redcoats who kept cryin' foul ... and lost ...

If you're working, part of that was once your money too.

What's the difference between paying income taxes and social security taxes? A promise by a politician? The same ones who swore an oath to uphold the Constitution?

The arbitrary proclamations of a Congresscritter or bureaucrat as to who is eligible to get money back, when half the country isn't even contributing anymore and we're borrowing to make up the difference while inflating the currency, no longer carries a heckuva lot of moral weight with me.

I voted against the system being created, and I will continue to do so, but there's a gun pointed at my head if I try to operate outside of it. If I have to live within the system they created, then my first moral obligation is to myself and my family, and I'm now going to take every advantage which that system provides. Legally, of course.

If he’s been a taxpayer paying in to the system all these years, then he’s really taking HIS hard-earned money back.

Look at it as the conservative version of the Cloward/Priven strategy.

Overload the system and cause it to break down. Then you’re in a position to reform it.

My gut tells me to take the principled stand and refuse govt handouts (that are really just other people’s money), but when you do that you enable to current system to stay in place and slowly grow.

By overloading the welfare state, we can crash it. At least then we have a chance to reform it.

"taking people's hard earned money?" Lots of people like me have given the government plenty over the last 25 years. The government now tanks the economy on purpose, so it's their turn to take care of me for awhile. Only seems "fair" and you don't want big government being unfair do you?
