I'd like to see it be starvation as a Township boars issue.

Board, not boars, though I'd eat one if hunger knocked.

There are jobs every where, they only pay 10 to 12 an hour to start so they would have to have two of them.

A ten or 12 dollar job will double pretty fast if you just show up every day and work hard. If it doesn't, only stay till you find one that will. Everybody I ever met in my life whining about no work or low pay didn't do those two simple things. Show up on time every day and work hard. Most of them spend a lot of time telling all their co-workers how dumb the boss is.

I agree Danny, having been self employed for 25 years and having up to 30 employees at a time I have alot of experience. I've had people work long enough to buy a new phone or once trained in and are expected to actually do something they quit. The work ethic is in the crapper right now because there are so many safety nets people just don't care.

One word, Walmart !!

The very reason this whole idea of boxed food will never fly. Walmart, if I remember right the largest benefactor of the food stamp program in America. Now toss in all the other grocery chains, and lets not forget the SNAP program is funded via the farm bill, and now put into the mix the manufacturing sector, and you have an idea dead on arrival.

Now with all that said the people that will determine what goes down could care less about you religious ideas, or your views upon personal character, nope that matters not squat. What matters is who will get the green $$$. Trump thought immigration, and taxes was hard, just screw with someone's food, that is a whole new type of crazy.

It's easy to be compassionate with other people's money

Apparently you are talking about type1 diabetes. How much exercise a person gets, what they eat and when they get up from the table are lifestyle choices.

For a type2 lifestyle choices has a dramatic effect on their health.

Life aint easy. Even a rich man has to get himself out of bed in the morning to keep his riches working for him. We have bred a society that expects (and gets) taken care of by not getting out of bed.
Every rich family started out poor but got out of bed and worked to improve themselves. We can tax a rich man until there is no incentive to keep going anymore. The grabbers can take everything hes got but he will still be able to raise a garden and take care of himself. The "poor" will still expect him to feed them out of his garden.
Our country is standing in a bucket and trying to lift itself up by the handle but there is too much dead weight.
People give millions to charities (above and beyond the taxes they pay) yet the majority of the money is skimmed off the top for "administration".
Its human nature....half the people get satisfaction from working and doing a job successfully, and the other half start screaming because he has more than them. So here we are.....

Keep in mind that many on disability are there because doctors wont release them to work because they're protecting themselves from lawsuits.

You can work when on SS which is different than SS disability. I know a guy that's on disability that traps full time.

Many on disability are on medication and get along fine. But, let them have an accident and here comes the lawyers!
