I remember in college I was getting out of my car. A buddy was with me.

As soon as I got out I was approached by a homeless person asking me for $1.00

I stopped for a second and offered the guy $10 to wash my car.

I was told to "f@ck off"

My then girlfriend and I where walking to the movies. Had a bum ask me for $0.10 I would have given it to him if I had it. All I had was plastic. When I turned him down he proceeded to call me a racist and followed us for 4 blocks yelling your a racist.

Fast forward a few years. When I restaurant manager. I would have people coming in with dog crap on their clothes looking for a job. I found out they just wanted to turn in a app so they could say they applied for 5 jobs that week so they could keep the benefits coming in.

Had a waitress that was pregnant. Had social services tell her to stay home because she would make more money to sit at home.

I do not make the mega bucks that many on this site make. I do well enough to let my wife stay home with my child. Had to make some sacrifices to do so but it was important to me. I work on cars on the side to earn some extra money, also work on computers to earn a little extra money.

If you are willing to work you will get by in this country. You may not make enough to buy a new Porsche every year or even a new car but you can get by if you are willing to work.

I resent seeing my tax dollars going to support a bunch of lazy asses
