Teach someone to fish and give them the fish. They'll learn a lot better if they're not starving first.

Mitt Romney said the 47% of Americans who have income too low to pay income taxes are below the notice of gov. That guy was elected to the Senate and EstDems love him.

It’s always been a bad thing in a capitalistic context. I mean, if you help people, how do you force them to work as drones in underpaying, emotionally degrading, dangerous jobs until they die? How do you get them to consume? 🤷🏿‍♂️

Who's stopping you??? We all help people who need help. The push-back comes when we bust our tails all day, scrimp for coupons, then gov takes our tax dollars for handouts to those who squander OUR money & dont want to work; NOT ALL - but some. And that's the "bad thing"
