190. As I pointed out in my other posts, I gladly pay taxes so that those
children receive all those services and more. I have taught for three decades. Newborns, infants, and children have no means of income, and as I explained in other posts here, we provide for them on that basis.

But when able bodied adults who earn incomes (in this case over $91k per year) take assets without paying, they are thieves. Simple as that. I do not wish to pay for them as freeloaders, because that is what they are.

I'm tired of people who "love" their kids, and have plenty of money for Budweiser and Marlboros, but can't seem to come up with school clothes. I'm sick of people like Dick Cheney and Halliburton, who receive billions of dollars in sweetheart contracts, but move to Dubai to avoid paying taxes, while my taxes go straight into their pockets. No use alerting the proper authorities - they and their buddies are the ones who are stealing the rest of us blind.
