OT--I know this isn't the place for it, but regarding free benefits, it was Bill Clinton that cut the welfare handouts down more than any republican. The Republicans believe in handouts for the rich, and hope something trickles down--and when it doesn't(it never does), then they give the poor handouts, at the same time they cut programs that can help them dig themselves out...Unless of course, the program has some affiliation with their faith, then it's ok.
I await deletion, but could not let that shot go un-answered.
