This probably should be in the politics section, but, whatever;
I've made no secret that I earn my paycheck picking up trash and delivering it to the landfill. Honest, hard, dirty, smelly work. WORK!
My company has contracts where we pick up the trash in subsidized housing complexes.
MY TAXES:
pay's their rent
pay's for their food
pay's for their heat
pay's for their electric
pay's for their trash pick up, hell even for the damned trash cans my company provides
So why in hell do these parasites expect me to put the trash in the goddamn can too? Lazy bastards just throw trash in the general direction of the cans.
now, MY TAXES pay someone to go around and pick up the trash and put it in the cans for them before I get there
What ain't right with this?

92 able bodied people are without jobs right now. But the still eat, watch cable and talk on cell phones-basically live like they have jobs!
Socialism at work, the problem is sooner or later socialist will run out of other peoples' money to paraphrase Margret Thatcher.
The adults will be back in charge soon but they are Big Government Republicans so I am not expecting much other than the assault on our liberties to abate a bit.
Sad times in what was a GREAT country.

In all seriousness, FBG, you have every right to be irate.
Please don't take this the wrong way, and is not meant to detract from your serious post......but.... you have been on the forum long enough to know that some of us can't resist the urge:
When I read your post, this was the first thing that popped into mind.....I swear:

So you've resorted to using 4 letter words?
Think about the children!!
...and the retired guys. ;)
As Peg said, you have every right to be mad.
Bloodsucking losers have ruined this country and now they have enough numbers to outvote us.
But not if we get our collective shi stuff together. How many people vote these days? Is it even 1 in 3?

Peg, we in the business tell each other, "Don't be 'that' guy".
That ain't to say, there ain't a day or 5 a week I don't feel like doing that.

Why do you think they went to plastic ? ;D
FBG, I know who you are talking about, but remember, some getting benefits have been looking for jobs for months or years.
We don't want the "free sh*t" we want XL Pipeline , drill AMERICAN oil, cut the business tax, and create some REAL f*cking jobs.
I'd settle for deport the f*cking aliens and leave the burger flipping and dish washing for AMERICANS !
(I was working 45 hours a week machining medical devices, when Obama got nominated I lost my OT, when he got sworn in I lost my job. Since then I have not been able to find anything more than 30 hours a week, and when they started talking about upping the minimum wage I even lost my dish washing job so I tend to get really pissy on the subject of jobs. If you think this is a rant, you should here me go off when the lying bas*ards start talking about their BS employment numbers ! ;D )

It was very obvious that that guy lost control of his temper and tore stuff up. Not a good thing.
But did you also notice he cleaned up his own mess? Maybe not such a good thing since some of it appeared to be stuff that was in the mail box.

None of the entitlement mentality should surprise you BFG. When someone doesn't have ownership, or a vested interest, then they don't take care of stuff.
I don't know how this game of entitlements will play out. Baring any huge natural catastrophe, I suspect it will be gradual over a long period of time. Eventually it will come to a halt, though it may bump along at it's present level for some time to come.

I heard today that the current "Farm Bill" is 80% food stamps, child nutrition and just plain old welfare.
