Garza can spend the money however she wants. She uses $150 of it to pay for her cellphone and another $100 or so to pay off her dog’s veterinarian bills. She spends the rest on her two grandsons now that she can afford to buy them birthday presents online and let them get the big bag of chips at the 7-Eleven. [More]It's not just a question of subsidizing the parasites at a subsistence level. While this "experimental" program is being funded by a nonprofit, "universal basic income" is already a reality with government-provided "entitlements," where the productive are forced at gunpoint to provide the immoral and lazy with a life of ease and plenty. The story says Garza is unemployed -- where's she getting the rest of her "income" from?
I could just sing:
“I think poverty is immoral, I think it is antiquated and I think it shouldn’t exist,” said Michael Tubbs, the city’s 29-year-old Democratic mayor.He would say that. He's the political beneficiary of headlines like "This California city’s 27-year-old mayor will give residents $500 free cash per month," like it's his to give. In fact, he's a generational career trough-feeder himself.
Poverty is not immoral. But those with demands on the property of others who claim the mantle of "poor" sure are.
Besides, Garza is hardly an example of poverty. A lifetime of wrong choices, yes. But truly poor people don't have cellphone and vet bills. And compare the price for a five-Lb.bag of rice compared to the same amount of 7-Eleven potato large chips. Such people don't know how to be poor.
And then such people vote to claim more of what is not theirs. No nation can endure and sustain such a burden forever.
And that's the plan.

End all foreign aid, no matter what nation it goes to. Spend that money on Americans. A few years ago, Congress was reported to have cut winter heating aid to Americans by "X" dollars in the morning while in the afternoon voting to increase the welfare to a country on the other side of the world by "X" dollars. Once we cut off the foreign parasites then I will start worrying about Americans who are getting money.
It’s not “either or.”
And what clause in the Constitution delegates to Congress the power to take from me and provide fuel subsidies to someone else?
It's not even about money so much as it's about principle.
Adams warned "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
The rot from within is the more immediate danger. Address that and you'll have a population wary of all kinds of "foreign entanglements" and other usurpations.
" i REALLY HAVE SOMETHING OF MY OWN....." FUNNY. Sad actually.
