I was once arrested for LOANING a buddy my fishing license… but according to military law it’s not a crime to loan your license but it is a crime for someone to use another’s license? But they don’t arrest someone who is here in the US illegally ? Am I the only one who finds this retarded?

My son had me sign a paper to give permission that he watch an “R” rated movie in his drama class… cool “I have the Power!” , But if my daughter wanted an abortion I don’t have to sign for that? Am I the only one who finds this retarded?

I grew up in rural Kentucky and was hunting with my own shotgun with my buddies at 13 years old, I was in the U.S Army for 4 years and shot God only knows how many weapons, I know have a concealed weapons permit, but the government NOW wants to increase my gun laws… do they understand it only take 1 shot to KILL? The same government armed the Afghanistan’s years ago.. the same ones we’re now fighting. Am I the only one who finds this retarded?

I understand that everyone has times in their life where they need help… yes everyone. But I don’t understand how paying someone 2 years of unemployment helps them get back to work? I drew unemployment for a week once… they made me pay it back, my employer didn’t lay me off, they were just working me 3 hours per week. I got a job real quick doing anything after that. Am I the only one who finds this retarded?

I’ve had to work and pay my own way since I was 16. I was never able to draw $200 cash assistance per month, $180 worth of food stamps, and get a free cell phone like you can today! I told a guy who is getting this that I saw a help wanted sign at the Circle K store, He replied, “I ain’t working for minimum wage”. Then goes along to tell me that those bastard (the Government) won’t give him any Medicaid. Am I the only one who finds this retarded?

I personally know of 7 people who draw a monthly “Social Security” disability check every month and they’ve never work a week in their lives. (one is 43 years old and has drawn her entire life) They’re mentally slow not physically handicapped. Why can’t they work at the county parks (even 25 hours per week), or clean alongside the roads, or help watch children of Low income families at a care center? Even Publix food stores hire mentally challenged people to help in their stores doing jobs they are capable of doing. But they draw $800 per month, $180 food stamps, Medicaid w/dental, and will for the rest of their lives … and they’re allowed to breed and have their own kids that are mentally challenged.

I’m fat … so is that McDonalds fault, or Coca Cola’s? Maybe it’s my fault for not pushing the burger away, or getting the extra piece of desert. How can I blame everyone else for my over-eating and not exercising enough? Should I be compensated somehow because “It’s not my fault”? Should our government be involved dictating to the fast food restaurants how many French fries to put in a “Happy Meal”? Am I the only one who finds this retarded?

Ben Affleck to live on $1.50 a day? Newark mayor does a $5.00 food challenge? The mayor of Newark was trying to prove that someone can live on $5.00 food stamps. People who receive food stamp (EBT Cards) are saying it isn’t enough? Huh…wait a second, isn’t it food assistance? Which means it will help out with the food expense. It wasn’t meant to FULLY feed someone everyday for every meal. But, I say someone can live on $5.00 per day. I eat a bag of instant oatmeal for breakfast, on sale it’s .25 per bag. I eat $1.50 can of soup for lunch, and occasionally a sandwich, say another $1.00, so that’s a $2.75 breakfast and lunch and I’m not even trying.  I can eat some Ramón noodle, and a can of beans for dinner and I’m under $5.00. I know what you’re thinking, it’s not right to make someone eat like that so we should give them at least $15 per day right?  Am I the only one who finds this retarded?
