BREAKING NEWS FOR RAYIt's not so much breaking up the United States of America, we are just sick of living with liberal nonsense that we can't tolerate. Oh! And did you hear? DumBama now wants to spend ten million of our tax dollars on diapers for the so-called poor, or as I call them, the irresponsible and lazy.
I do agree with you on the free diapers... Many of the parents are pacified and suck off the government , hard habit to stop.
Geeeezzzzz use cotton diapers and wash them. Better for the baby anyway.

This is the progressive path of Cradle-to-Grave.
You don't have a job but get pregnant. No problem, the taxpayer will foot the bill for your care and delivery.
So you have the kid and now have a legitimate reason not to work, but since you don't work, how are you going to feed this kid? No problem, we have WIC for that.
You can't feed a kid unless he has someplace to eat; someplace where you can have a bed for him and food in a refrigerator. No problem, you qualify for HUD.
Now you have a HUD home in the suburbs with this growing kid, but like most kids, he gets sick all the time and you need medical care for that. No problem, you qualify for Medicaid.
Wait a minute, how are you going to educate this kid? You don't have much education yourself since you had to drop out of school because you became pregnant. No problem, public schools are free.
But now the kid will be hungry if he goes to school because it's too much effort for you to make him a lunch. How will he eat? No problem, your school has free breakfast and lunch for your child.
Okay, I have free school for my kid, free food for my kid, a home in the suburbs, but what if this kid is smarter than me and needs to go to college? No problem, your kid was born when Hillary became President, so now, taxpayers will pay for his college too!
Gee, this suburban HUD home is nice, and me and my child eat very well, but we could always use more. How can I get more from the government? No problem, just get pregnant all over again, and this time, government will send you free diapers to boot!
I did my internship in a home to get drug addicted pregnant women off the street, get them clean and sober to have a healthy baby..They were put on government asst. I feel at times it may be necessary, but not for a long period of time ,,, except for those who are truly sick and can not work..
But your right on about the timetable , I have seen it in action..
I was without parents at 19 years old, I worked my ass off and never went on gov. asst.
I do think that the type of people who are lifetime welfare or in prison feel that they are victims and the world owes everything to them..
.
As long as we continue this kind of society where government does everything except tuck the kid in bed at night, what point is it to have parents anymore? Government is already taking care of 80% of the responsibilities for that child, so why not just take that other 20% leap and let government raise our children?
