Indeed. Except it is A-OK to interfere if the parents decide to take those hungry little ones to see a Drag Queen story time event. Please understand the priorities.Uh huh, I got it the first time.
Do not interfere if parents do not have the money to feed their kids. If they want/choose to let their kids starve, then the kids deserve it for being born to those parents. No one should interfere by doing anything to feed the kids.
whoa wut? When in the last 9 pages did you do that? The evidence is pretty clear that homelessness is driven largely by housing costs, moreso even than poverty or addiction.It's already been proven to you that the homeless are largely responsible for their homelessness.
true problem with that line of thought is that in the meantime the children suffer which particularly very young children can do NOTHING about.Then it's up to a good society to pressure them to do so.
Well great for you, however not all parents are like that some just do not care; while others are doing the best they can and still come up somewhat short (Those are the ones that I have no problem receiving aid.) Even though I feel that the actual restrictions should still be tight, but I do realize that some people need it and I even realize the tricky problem of what is known as the welfare cliff. What I do not know is the best way to fix the welfare cliff,I understand. Not my kids.
The ones that ILLEGALLY migrate actually get services from our government. More precisely, from the taxpayers. Regarding jumping trains, I don't think Kentucky would be their "land of opportunity". We don't take kindly to illegal aliens here. Legal ones are a completely different thing.Oh, like some of the migrants at the southern border, gotcha. The question still stands to you expect Americans homeless to jump trains to move to Kentucky?
I understand that some people make really bad parents. And when they break the law, the government should step in. But not until then. Again, not my kids, and I don't want to be a Karen simply projecting my personal perspective on the actions of others. e.g. if I see a parent spank their child at a grocery store, I'll assume the kid probably needed it. But if I see the parent beating them with a baseball bat or stabbing them, I'll then get involved.Well great for you, however not all parents are like that some just do not care; while others are doing the best they can and still come up somewhat short (Those are the ones that I have no problem receiving aid.)

Social Security. That's it. And I paid dearly into it. Frankly, if I'd paid that money into a halfway decent investment, I'd have a lot MORE money.I bet if you laid out your financial situation for us, we could find at least half a dozen government subsidies you're benefiting from. Probably quite a lot more than that if we put in the effort.
My wife used to see a woman with a very small child begging every morning in front of the building she worked at in downtown Seattle. One day she decided to actually do something and tried to set her up with a job opportunity and day care for her child. They agreed to meet the next day at a particular time. She never saw the woman again.[bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse] really. is that your experience with the homeless (not!) or just your fantasy? Reading this makes me feel ashamed you're my brother. Jesus didn't have preconditions on Love you neighbor but wow. I guess it's true the rich are out of touch.
I think we knew better back then. We've forgotten a lot about human nature.You’re arguing to keep things “the way they were” back before we knew better.
Those immigrants in your example, fought to get government assistance for people who came after themselves; the faster immigrants can acclimate to their new society the better for all concerned, isn’t that exactly the “function of government“?
That’s the only check you get. Subsidies show up in a lot of other ways, often in taxes and fees you don’t pay.Social Security. That's it. And I paid dearly into it. Frankly, if I'd paid that money into a halfway decent investment, I'd have a lot MORE money.
Why should I pay taxes and fees? FWIW, I NEVER see the state allowing me to not pay a tax or fee as the equivalent of giving me money. If a thief chooses not to rob me, that doesn't mean he gave me the money I have on me.That’s the only check you get. Subsidies show up in a lot of other ways, often in taxes and fees you don’t pay.

The woman that entered illegally and had six kids, and lived with my family for six weeks was receiving approximately $1100 a month from the government. I actually drove her to the building and went in with her when she collected one check. Comically it was based on how many children she had. Equally comically, I had three children because it is what I felt I could afford.[emphasis mine]
Prove it.
It's not. I guess I missed the point of your previous post.How is you not paying a tax a burden to you?
I pay sales taxes, gas tax, and property tax. I'm all paid up on taxes.Because the government provides services to you. Taxes are what pay for those services.
I assume then that you don’t understand how the math works.
If your share of the cost of running the government is $X, and your net outlay to the government every year is something less than $X, then you’re getting a subsidy. Whether that subsidy comes in the form of a welfare check, tax refund, or a reduced tax bill is irrelevant. The math works out the same.
You said that your monthly property tax bill is less than the cost of a pizza. That’s not enough to cover the cost of the services provided to you. You may be all paid up, but you’re likely enjoying a subsidy via a reduced tax bill.I pay sales taxes, gas tax, and property tax. I'm all paid up on taxes.
What services? I've not seen a cop in my area in the 12.5 years I've lived here except for the time my neighbor's cattle broke through his fence and ended up on my property. Meanwhile, I pay for water and electricity. I have septic. I paid for all the federal services I'll ever need in my working years, and then some. I pay $60 or so for tabs for each of my four cars and tax on the gas I buy. That covers the roads. I have no children in public school. So what service am I getting and not paying for?You said that your monthly property tax bill is less than the cost of a pizza. That’s not enough to cover the cost of the services provided to you. You may be all paid up, but you’re likely enjoying a subsidy via a reduced tax bill.
That article is nothing but sympathetic rhetoric with no basis in reality. Right now in the city where I live there are a lot of homeless people. They are all either mentally ill or addicts if some kind. Some have severe personality disorders as well which could have been brought in by the addictions.You are convinced in your own mind. In fact I believed in a couple of these myths. It has all started with my tribes fight against welfare some of this is talk in our circles and shouldn't be in a Christan circle.
