@bigvirgotube Yeah. They'll just keep borrowing & rebalancing while the population continues to grow. We still won't be educated well enough to do the 3rd gen, technology jobs. We'll be more dependent on petroleum instead of going green so hyper-inflation is what's up. Don't worry though, Pauly D's blowout will still be fresh to death.

@bigvirgotube Unfortunately, that's part of the American paradox. Of course it's important to be self-sufficient. But it's also important to to help others that are more vulnerable. But most importantly, it's important to help vulnerable people help themselves. My friend once told me, "James (that's me), you're the kinda guy that prefers a hand up instead of a handout. You won't ask for something but you'll ask to earn something."

@bigvirgotube That's the biggest problem with capitalism itself. In micro or macro settings, it's assumed that everyone is supposed to get his. But everyone doesn't have the same starting block. And when people like me talk about "level playing fields" or "insuring access for all" or, heaven forbid, "inclusion" then I'm a liberal who's crippling people by helping them instead making them use their "bootstraps". Ain't that a bitch?

@bigvirgotube For 1, anything you do is "enough". You think not? Just ask the people you help. 2, Medicaid is from general revenue if by "general revenue" you mean state Income & property taxes & fees for stuff like car registration. As far as what people get back for federal income, you know conservatives hate paying that shit. They call it "redistributing wealth".
