@DjGuardian - I don’t think welfare should be indefinite but I do agree with social safety nets existing. I pay my taxes without complaint and I don’t personally care that I pay a higher percentage of my income in taxes than the top 2%. As long as I can get by on what I make that’s all I need. I don’t need to take money from anyone else. However, we don’t get to control where our taxes go. My focus lies almost entirely on social equality under the Constitution, e.g. marriage equality and DADT repeal. One down, one to go.
The whole rich v poor thing, really to me, is just a side argument against a party that scores political points by bashing people in my community.
