horst Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Im all done defending people.They continue to prove me wrong.It just came across the news the Astrodomes in a state of lockdown after fights broke out in a line formed to recieve the debit cards the governments handing out.Apparently theres more morons down there than I thought, if you cant resist a fistfight to get 2000$ then you really dont deserve it to start with.Im sure the people of Texas werent counting on these kind of problems when they offered to shelter these people.Some gratitude huh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Andrea Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Re: Morons Well, that's what makes me want to keep my "donations" over here. I don't mind helping the refugees that have found shelter in our area. They are kind, PATIENT and thankful. It's a shame that those people causing all the ruckus over there are making it hard for those few who are trying to be civilized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParrotHead Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Re: Morons I guess what I'm wondering the most is - what seperates these people from say the folks that "lost everything" here in Georgia because of the same exact storm? What makes these people so different than say...the family that lost their home and everything in a fire last night? Why are these people more entitled to a government handout of $2000 dollars? Where is private insurance coming into all this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elwood Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 Re: Morons These people have been raised with their hands out and given everything by the government. They give nothing and expect it all to be given to them. Check out this article: http://www.intellectualactivist.com/php-bin/news/showArticle.php?id=1026 There is a lot of truth in it. Elwood Sorry, it has already been posted in another thread. Good reading anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnf Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 Re: Morons My wife just brought up an interesting point. When she was working for DHS as a welfare lady, most of her lifelong clients were on anti depressants or anti psycotic drugs. There seemed to be a large population of them that were diagnosed schizophrenic or antisocial. So these folks are are the ones standing in lines to get $2000 after going a couple weeks without thier drugs. (legal or otherwise) definately not a good situation.

wtnhunt Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 Re: Morons It is a shame that some people are not the least bit appreciative, and that some just dont seem to understand that people are trying to help. Really think there is going to be alot of animosity towards these people before it is over with. I mean helping is great, and we have given what we can, but somethings that are taking place I am not so sure I agree with. We have quite a few relocated folks here locally. The governor got on the news last night saying that the state will be taking applications and opening enrollment for a state health care program for these people. The same program that they just cut hundreds of thousands of Tennessee tax paying residents off of due to lack of funding. There are people on this Tenn Care insurance program, who cannot even get all their meds, they cut back to allowing only 5 prescriptions per plan member per month, now all of a sudden he is going to find a way to support these people?
