“We have a safety net (hammock) there. If it needs repair (in the opinion of the left/media) , I’ll fix it (spend billions and billions more).”
I agree that there is a danger of wasting even more money on government giveaway programs. But saying Romney wants to spend billions on the very poor is almost the opposite of saying he doesn’t care about the very poor. I think he was saying he is concerned about the 95% that are struggling. Romney needs to become more articulate.
Actually spending billions more on failed government programs that do nothing but enslave poor people is the opposite of caring.
