1. FACT the monetary difference between the rich and poor is WIDENING and has been WIDENING for a long time, which makes this statement COMPLETELY FALSE....a LIE if you will.

Well yes, and it will continue to widen I hope.
Instead of labeling them Haves/Have Nots, how about we label them Dos/Do Nots; surely working hard to cut out a living should widen the gap between you and those who chose to do nothing but wait for the gravy train to arrive in the mail every month.
Yes, there are people in the country who are trying their hardest to get out of a bad situation and need any help they can get to improve their position, I for one applaud anything we can do to help these folks live a better life.
However, the US absolutely has to be the world leader of persons who have by their actions or inactions put themselves in a position of poverty, and have no intention of putting forth any effort to get out of poverty. And why not, as long as those govt checks come along with enough dough to by some bon-bons and a bag of pot every month they are happy.
It's the support of those who intend to stay in poverty that hurts the most the chance of those who really,truly need the help.
