[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 545501, member: 60724"] You're right EricP, I am splitting hairs, but I am NOT complaining about what someone spends their assistance on. I have never complained. Observed, commented, yes, complained, no. If I choose to give someone money I think they need, then I don't preach or complain about how they should or do use it. I give a buck to a homeless guy with an MD 20/20 bottle in his hand and recognize he will probably drink the money. So what. I don't care if the $2K debit cards are used for crack. I really don't care. My major point is that they haven't EARNED the money, nor has the wino I gave the buck to, or the welfare mom that gets a fraction of a cent from my paycheck. None of them earned it. They may have DESERVED it, or needed it, and I really don't give TWO $HITS how they use it...they just haven't earned it. People EARN things by working for them, IMHO. That's all I was trying to say. My heart (and hard earned money) goes out to these people. They deserve a lot...they have EARNED NOTHING! I am a stickler for the English language and have a very good work ethic...those two, hand in hand, made the word "EARN" used in this context irk me! TJR [/QUOTE]
