A substantial portion of the bottom 20% are dependent on government for supplying their needs.

Unfortunately its not just their "needs" that we're supplying. The so called poor have a lot more extraneous crap than I have. My real luxuries are a $500 camera and high speed internet and I use both to earn money to pay for them.

What I don't have is an Iphone, Ipad, MP3 player, video games, new car, constant supply of new clothes, a couple vacations per year......

Just last night my cousin posted on facebook that she doesn't have money for health care. She posted it from her hotel room in California where she's playing dress up at a gamers convention of some type. She doesn't have money for health care but she has money for elaborate costumes and cross country trips a couple times per year.

I'm really getting disgusted with the selfish greed of the so called poor.

Oh, yes. Another thing that AP willfully missed in this is that the Gom't hasn't given them raises keeping up with the cost of livin'. The government is the man keepin' em down!!!
