Dick Morris nails it again. “The Anti-Success Presidency”

Money quote:

“For decades, astute observers of national welfare policy warned of the perversity of the incentives that kept the poor on welfare and discouraged them from taking jobs. Employment meant that their slightly higher income would be more than offset by the loss of other benefits like food stamps, day care, rent supplements and Medicaid. Work didn’t pay.

Now Obama is applying the same crazy policies to the upper end of the economic spectrum.”

Tea Party slogans:

- Billions for national defense. Not one cent for Class Warfare
- I’ve seen the enemy, and it’s Big Government
- Obamiot! When will you slam America’s Work Ethic?
- 3 generations busted in 85 days
- Holding a job would have taught you about taxes, Mr. President
- Bow to the citizens, not foreign leaders
- Stop the War on Productivity NOW
- Uphold the Constitution, not “Rules for Radicals”
- Now we know what you meant by “being in the enemy camp”
- We wanted a leader, not a spendaholic
- I’m still waiting for a poor man to give me a job
- Me – laid off. Obama – on vacation.
- Is there anything about my country you like, Obama?
- What about Trillion $ deficits don’t you understand
- My child, unsustainably in debt before pre-school
- We don’t want to be like Cuba
- When will you set my salary, Mr. President?
- Can one of your cooks loan me some $ for my car payment?

Work is a four-letter word.
Some people don’t like to utter four-letter words.
Especially that one LOL
I agree, among a group of 12 people, there must be a couple of them capable of some sort of work…

Work, pool their money and rent or buy?
Whatever for when they can simply find a nice place and take it over.
To paraphrase Leona Helmsley – Paying is for the little people.

Zimbabwe is exactly what I was thinking, too.
Mary Trody has a family of twelve including mom and sibs. Are we two believe there aren’t a few of these twelve folks who are capable of working? Because if there are, they ought to be able to pool their money in order to rent or buy some digs for the whole bunch.

We make a lot of noise about freedom of speech, but property rights are really the foundation of a free society. This is a direct attack on the foundation of our freedom as a nation and needs to be stopped, not exalted in the press as another “alternative” to meet housing needs of those who breed (as opposed to form and raise families) and are unwilling or unable to earn the housing they determine they deserve.

Our struggle is fundamentally one of land, and control over that land. We take inspiration from and support our sisters and brothers across the globe engaged in similar struggles for control over land for the benefit of the people.

????…support across the globe for control of land. Hey nothing wrong if these people want to go back to Africa and say this was once our land and we want it back. Go for it.

“Let the record reflect that there was no lock on the door,” Mr. Rameau said. “I’m not breaking in.”

No idiot, you are just taking captive and stealing the entire house.

Thank goodness they’re only stealing a house – Heaven help them if they purchased a pure-bred dog like the Biden’s, and had to say Novenas to PETA, et al. It’s the only time I’ve ever had any compassion for ‘Plugs’.

And, I’m pretty sure I’m dreaming – all this crap cannot really be happening, can it?

For a second, I thought this was a joke (“Queen Omega”?) but our country is lacking in sane people and there’s not a can of Raid big enough to deal with these parasites.

Let the fattie starve. If you don’t work, you don’t eat. (Or that’s how it should be.)

DGA, I’m glad I’m not the only who does this. I also don’t give them breaks in traffic either.

“We had a move-in that we were going to do one day at noon,” he said. “At 10 o’clock in the morning, I went over to the house just to make sure everything was O.K., and squatters took over our squat. Then we went to another place nearby, and squatters were in that place also.”

I must say I openly guffawed… but here is the deal..

there IS a solution to all of this.. Eliminate minimum wage. Allow work farms and work shelters to propagate where folks need shelter. Let them WORK their way out of trouble.. The current laws do not allow the necessary creativity to give prospective bosses creativity.

Whoa, whoa, whoa – he said he changed the lock and then said there was no lock. I guess he meant he ‘installed’ a lock. Of course the idea that these houses were not locked in some fashion is crap…

Yarddog: this is what four decades of The Great Society hath wrought. Squalor and sloth.
