re: #88 RealityBasedSteve

A R/L and FB friend of mine has a butthurtz with me now. She posted some rightwing meme about how people who get any govt. assistance should be drug tested, not allowed to vote, etc. (you know the deal) That if you don’t like those rules, don’t take the money, you didn’t earn it.

I simply posted a page-long comment rebutting every point in the meme, and added “So, anybody that gets a Pell Grant or SSI for disability should also be drug tested and stripped from the voting rolls, since they are getting money that isn’t ‘earned’”. (and she is receiving SSI and applying for a Pell Grant).

She wanted to know “Why are you picking on me Steve”, and I told her the truth… “You are a smart person, you need to learn how to think however”

Sometimes I just have to work on my soft skills.

Drug testing welfare applicants is a scam for the testing labs.
