Why do the elite rich think that poor people should be pilloried?

Food is the basis of our economy! I know that sounds incredulous to many people ,but it's true! If,history is any judge!

Food is the root of civilization. Take away the root and the tree dies!

Jeff Dial is just being a good Rebublician and trying to cut cost on the backs of the poor.

The rich has benefited more from the hard work of the poor than it did for the poor. I have been with the rich and, during work hours, have noticed the rich playing golf, socializing in fashionable spots, having enormous opportunities to make large sums money with a single stroke of the pen in their comfortable office or yacht. They spend more time systemically removing opportunities on those who work much harder to rise.

The rich now has trillions of dollars sitting in their bank accounts and refuse to invest on jobs that could give opportunities for the poor to rise. Having been in corporate boardrooms, I witnessed corporations insult the government suggestions they should invested on jobs for the poor. They always plan how they can get more out of labor while trying to give labor less and less or even lay them off, not because the corporations do not have money, but they just want more.

Those politicians in Arizona and elsewhere are funded by these corporations and rich individuals who want to be richer by reducing taxes due by them. The poor cannot afford fund politicians who intend to give them enough basic opportunities to survive. Those politicians who fight for the basic rights of the poor are systematically drowned out by the enormous political contributions against them from the rich.

I once hired some temporary to laborers from a corporate agency to work on my personal property. It was back breaking work for each labor. Many fell out of exhaustion.

Temperature outdoor was in excess of 100F. Later I noticed that the corporations made three times more money than these laborers while sitting in their air conditioned offices and dining well. These poor laborers could not even afford lunch or basic health care.

The poor may sometimes appear lazy after being burnt-out with such dead-end jobs that does not provide a living wage. Sure there are lazy individuals everywhere, but I have seen the rich being lazier than the poor. These rich individuals are more likely to have an opportunity to make say $500/hr.It is hard for both poor and the rich to be lazy then.

If this opportunity was offered to both a poor man and a rich man, both will work very hard at this. However, the poor will work hard here because he has to cover his basic needs while the rich is not doing this for the same reason, but he is more likely be doing this out of greed, a disease that is ruining America.

I suppose the elite rich think the rest should be gotten rid of so they can have everything for themselves.

This guy's statements show that he is completely unfit to be a leader in a government elected by the people. To remove these benefits, would make human disasters comparable to Rwanda. Plus, doesn't this guy realize that as an insensitive rich dude that the more desparate that people get, the more crime and violence that occurs.

This guy is completely out of touch. To remove food benefits with this many unemployed, would be an atrocity (not like it would be good to do anytime). Kudos to "someonewhoknows" and "thesource" and everybody else who stuck up for what was right for recognizing just how vile this man's comments were.

Not all who are rich worked hard for thier money - I.E. Trump's Kid. The Old money versus nouveau riche differenece is those who did work from the bottom up know how it is to scrap and skimp when they first start. Corporate welfare via tax breaks and lax regulations seems more acceptable to the Amercian public who rather have a legal 'person' that never dies to live off actual human beings than help the mortals themselves.

The elite look at many welfare people the same as I do. Too many of them are nothing better then bumms but untill we put a system in place that makes being on welfare more difficult, it won't end. I don't blame anyone for using the system but I do blame the ones who think it's their right to live off others.

Food insecurity, wow. Talk about being full of political correctness. Speak like a human, Food Stamps and welfare is what you are talking about.In the last two years over 10 million more have been added to the food stamp ranks.

I go to my local market and 7-11 and I see with, my own eyes, 90% of these people are useless lazy liers and thiefs who deserve nothing but a job, which of course they will never accept. Those who need assistance, we owe it to them as humans and Americans to help, but the vast majority, Please....Wake up, pull your head out of that televisions butt, stop listening to fakers and haters and go outside, see for yourself....Food insecurity, my God, you sound like Nazi making up words to describe murder and eating of children so it will sound acceptable. Its called poverty and hunger.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
