Why is it that the liberals believe it is the job of the Federal government to take complete care of its citizens, whether they want it or not? If it was anyone's job, it would be the States of the Union, but that responsibility should not even fall on their shoulders. This used to be the Land of Opportunity, not the Land of Coddling. There's nothing worse than a person who believes that all of their wants and desires should be fulfilled by someone else. I've known people like that, and I despise them above all else. Where, along the way, did so many people lose their drive to better themselves, and provide for themselves and their families? How would these people expect to survive if there wasn't any Federal government to baby them and take care of their every need? They'd better be thankful that survival of the fittest doesn't really exist in a "civilized society". That way of thinking is not only un-American, but it's also unnatural.
