What is your solution for the disabled if those institutions cannot support them and too few people donate?

Here children should be taken away from her and she should be interned in an infirmary if she is truly disabled.

“Yes, many people do fake it.”

Years ago lived in a neighborhood that had a dog lover and a dog abuser.

The dog abuser was on disability, the dog lover took picture of him working in his yard, sending it to the disability people to get him dumped off. It worked.

The dog lover was a about 80 years old and spunky. Great neighbor.

Taking away children and interning someone who becomes disabled. How civilized...

I’m not analyzing or talking about this particular case. I know many people fake it but many real people do become disabled every day.

Notice the story has a lot of detail except about this mysterious ailment she has.

Gas chambers? Execution vans?

Only for histrionic defenders of legalized robbery trafficking in hypotheticals to further their aims.

How about giving it a try before championing a system that has proven to corrode liberty?

I don't know about you, but in my home you don't get to dictate terms and conditions when you're asking for assistance.

Her name is in the article and she lives in Arlington, VA. So how much money have you sent her?

Hmmm...how old is she? 32-40?...says recent health issues are a problem. Maybe she was enjoying the benefits of welfare food a bit much before and is getting smarter about food planning, MAYBE?

Its not a hypothetical that disabled people exist who have no ability to survive and eat in a free market.

Its not a hypothetical that humans need food to not suffer and die.

Explain exactly what it is you wish to “try” on these disabled PEOPLE who will suffer without food

Letting someone starve IS killing them.

AND far more painful than many execution methods

Spare us your willful obtuseness. Do you think people don’t notice you’re stating the obvious to avoid defending your comfort with nanny-state solutions?

PRIVATE care of the poor and disabled, jackass.

Currently, it looks as if March 2019 will see a $3 billion contingency fund distributed proportionally over what would usually be a $4.7 billion food stamp outlay. The real pain will begin in April 2019. Expect either massive rioting by the ... uh, Amish communities in the inner cities ... or an emergency bill to restore something like regular funding for SNAP while the politicians continue to wrangle over the border security wall.

“Letting someone starve IS killing them.”

So blow the dust off your checkbook and fill up your local food pantry. There is ZERO constitutional authority for the Federal Government to run a food program.

None.

So head on over the the FR Homepage and reread the purpose of the forum you’re posting on.

Ever since I started working serious jobs full time, there has been exactly one time, two years ago, when I did not have to move for a better job. Everyone of those moves was out of state, save one, and that one was out of the country.

Right. Under your terms, taking away children from a mother who committed no crime is somehow justified. Not being able to make enough money is reason enough. Nomatter what happened or how disabled you are.

Why? Because some fake it, you must let ALL the disabled suffer?
