That's exactly what we said about Dubyah. Only this is even worse--or maybe, the inevitable result of going down that dark road.

My condolences to you and yours. There was a kid in my elementary school who obviously never got enough to eat. I used to give him half my sandwich and a piece of fruit (which I'd put in my lunch for that purpose), and I knew that helped. I never told anyone about it before. I didn't even remember it until I read this.

These dickbags can't see anything but their own short term gains. Literally nothing exists outside of their own experience. That and "Fuck everyone else and devil take the hind most" is their motto.

Dear Mr. Rich Asshole Budget Person,I pay taxes too and I would much rather not have malnourished, uneducated children roaming the streets or my elders starving to death in an unheated apartment. Beside the alledged reduction in my taxes is a negligible off set by your cronies devouring my retirement savings. In conclusion, fuck you very much. The world would be a better place if you fell into an open manhole onto pointy Legos.

Yeah, and let's repeal all the child labor laws while we're at it. They're unconstitutional.

Y'know, if Hillary had been elected we'd have a taco truck on every corner by now and we wouldn't NEED Meals on Wheels.
