Those who drool at the prospect of mo’ free stuff, courtesy of Obama, excuse me, the taxpayer, will not change their tune when the tap is turned off. They will still consider your property free.

They will just try to take it rather than wait for you to give (forcibly redistribute it) it to them.

I guarantee that “prepper” will soon become racist because the libs will spin it that it is people who are hoarding food to deprive the “downtrodden” of their due redistribution.

Entitlement programs have created GENERATIONS of people who have radically divergent work ethics, values, and mores, and furthermore, who have no intent or stimulus to adopt one that is more conducive to independence.

This is the one part that sort of fails in this piece....

“Freedom might have been important to people when they were fighting taxation without representation in 1776, but what's that to me here and now?” asked another poll respondent. “I don't have to pay taxes, but I still get to vote.

There is no way the "gimmes" understand the concept of taxation without representation. those words are too big for them!

Plus, they have no idea what 1776 refers to in history.

Other than that, it's perfect! LOL

In Florida it is against the law to feed dolphins -even if they beg for food...they become dependent on begging, and do not hunt for their food....why is this not true of welfare for people?...The Government is the biggest drug pusher in our country and that drug is free stuff....many are dependent on it.....We must change our country. If people need help we must help them...that should be a step up to being independent again...

Hey she sounds like a motivate sales person.

She should. The SEIU was paying her 11 bucks an hour!

We're giving them free birth control and free cell phones—two items of critical importance to the modern woman.

Hahaha! You're gonna be in so much trouble for that one!

Yep. “Free” phones, “free” gas, “free” mortgages, “free” health care, etc. Isn’t “free” dom(or is that “free”dumb?) grand? ;)
