That’s it for me, too. At least the veterans actually did some sort of service for the nation. What about all the others who receive money simply for being born in the USA? What exactly has a welfare mom done to earn her payments? How does giving birth to a bunch of illegitimate children compare to dying on a battlefield? If it comes down to cutting, shouldn’t those who never contributed be the first cut?
That comment doesn’t even belong on this thread.
