The poor should not have sex/get married or poverty is their fault
Edited on Mon May-01-06 09:57 PM by usregimechange
What kind of world do these people live in?

Single mothers with one children can work full time and still be in poverty therefore poverty is not self inflicted.

"And as for single mothers... who made the decision to have sex that day?"

:mad: :grr: :banghead: :nuke:

3. Who said these things?
As a confirmed bachelor and a valuable non-contributor to overpopulation, I probably have a better right to hold such attitudes than anyone, yet I do not. Such elitist, un-Christian twaddle. So, again, who said it, and what was the context? Inquiring minds want to know....

4. The only pro-abortion person I ever met was a Republican
He thought abortion was a good positive thing, because it meant fewer people on welfare, which would also lower his taxes. He also did not want a baby, so he said that if he got a girl pregnant he would force her to have an abortion.

7. They're compassionate conservatives.
It's always the victim's fault, especially if they're poor or a minority.

9. Ah, there is the "race card."
If you are a minority it seems much more like a reason...

8. "KIll the poor"
Efficiency and progress is ours once more
Now that we have the Neutron bomb
It's nice and quick and clean and gets things done
Away with excess enemy
But no less value to property
No sense in war but perfect sense at home:

The sun beams down on a brand new day
No more welfare tax to pay
Unsightly slums gone up in flashing light
Jobless millions whisked away
At last we have more room to play
All systems go to kill the poor tonight

Gonna
Kill kill kill kill Kill the poor:Tonight

Behold the sparkle of champagne
The crime rate's gone
Feel free again
O' life's a dream with you, Miss Lily White
Jane Fonda on the screen today
Convinced the liberals it's okay
So let's get dressed and dance away the night

While they:
Kill kill kill kill Kill the poor:Tonight
