In my personal opinion, the government is very clearly WANTING more people to depend on it for even the most basic necessity - food. What I don't know yet, is WHY?
It's not like they give a fuck about their own people, the ones who actually LIVE on American soil. They'd rather hand out millions and billions of dollars to shitbag countries around the world who don't even appreciate the gesture rather than fix the problems that plague our own streets. Fuck this form of government - I'm sure our founding fathers are turning in their graves at the thought of this pathetic path their country has taken

I love when people refer to the "Founding Fathers" as if they were omniscient and always correct. How many RPM's do you think they got in those coffins when non-landowners were given the right to vote? 5400? How about freeing the slaves most of them owned - ramped it up to 7200? And Women voting? Not to mention equal pay and rights? They could probably spin their way to the Moon, Alice!!!
Let's not forget what the American Revolution was really about. A bunch of rich, white, slave-owners who did not want to pay taxes. Not much has changed, except the slavery part.
