Myself I'm quite poor at the moment can not afford health insurance but will try to do whatever I can to keep myself not a burden to others. Its probably the best because I can go to the free clinic if need be get free food at the food pantry.
Yes, yes, you are
so poor that you can spend oodles of time online.
That aside, who provides your free clinic access? Your food? Providing that both of these services are church based (which I highly doubt...the clinic at least), why are you less of a "burden" when church folk provide you with care instead of taxpayers?
P.S. Everyone is a burden to others in this country. I do not drive (anymore) but my taxes go towards road maintenance and building new highways. I do not support our current wars in the Middle East, but tons of my money goes towards it (just like you seem not to support helping the poor thru taxes). I do not support our government supporting religious organizations, but your saint Bush funneled alot of tax dollars to "faith based" organizations.
But I pay my taxes because my nieces and nephews and cousins and friends' kids go to public schools. Because I ride public transportation. Because I can call 911 in an emergency. Because I can call 311 (NY services) when my heat is out and my landlord refuses to fix it. Etc. Etc.
I willingly help people thru social services and out of own pocket without bitching about "burdens"...and I'm not even a Christian...
