There is without a doubt a percentage of the welfare population who want nothing more than to stay on welfare. That being said, at least here in New York, there are a ton of programs working to make every able bodied recipient get a job. And by able bodied I mean "oh, you're breathing? You go get a job now".

I wouldn't call it alt-right. But Corporatist eugenics are apparently totally ok while pro-choice eugenics are not.

So I guess we will finally get those death panels Palin warned us about. Maybe she isn't so dumb

People are talking. And they should be. Great, great artist. Really great. America should have art so great. Obama killed art in America. So sad with the bad leading. Terrible leader.

It's not a death panel, per se. It's a more like a morgue.

So Manchester isn't sharing info with the US about the attack because of the Trump leaks.

Well she said government would decides who gets treatment, making a death panel. Now the insurance companies decides who get treatment. Only rich people who can pay for it.

Yes, but now there's no panel. You can either afford it or you can't.

Yah, and in this great country that the great white (I mean orange) cheeto is making greater again, you can pull up your boot straps and get to work, so you can pay for care for your medical situation. Awesomesauce!

This all fits so nicely with the Calvinist/Puritan ethos as advocated by the modern Conservative movement. These folks have collectively turned their backs on the principles from The Enlightenment that were fundamental to the formation of the US and have fabricated an alternative fact tale in which wealth is the ultimate measure of righteousness. If you are poor, you must by definition be evil and thus do not deserve any assistance. To me, that is the ultimate negation of the American dream and lies at the heart of every aspect of the current Republican platform.
