Michele Bachmann Says If You Are Unemployed, You Should Starve

Joe Blow
You're making a point that does make some sense.

The republican states HAVE TO BE the most generous states when it comes to giving to the poor, because (if I remember correctly we concluded in another thread) the republican states are also the poorest states in the US. Democratic states don't have to give so much to charity because there is less poverty. Less needy people, less uneducated people, less people without health insurance.

What a way to be proud of your state to be generous to the poor after you create poverty first.

(I love the term "Bullies with Bibles". Rick Perry is a great example.)

Whole subdivisions are being bull dozed in liberal Detroit because of its decreasing population caused by failed liberal policies.

Conservatism produces wealth. Liberalism produces poverty and destroys the human spirit. Socialism is a cancer that eventually kills if it is not rooted out.

First off Texas has no state income- it's oil rich, but there are other States such as Wyoming that are running a surplus- Texas has one of the worst educational system- also how do Perry balance his budget??? I will tell you how with Stimulus money that he claimed he wasn't going to accept. Texas has the most uninsured motorist in the nation- be careful driving in this state- if you get in the wreck- good luck.
Also, Texas has the highest percentage of minimum wage earners in the Nation!

I didn't mention all of that, I figured that Joe Blow would come up with that himself.
But I clearly underestimated his stupidity and blindness

Illegal imigration is justified by the left because they say the illegals are doing the work Americans just WILL NOT do anymore. Originally Posted by joe bloe

I have to take issue with the statement you made regarding illegal immigration & the left.

both, the left & right camps (mostly the right) have made that statement.

the leftist statement for "illegal immigrants" aka "the undocumented" was that they are looking for a better life in america to support their families back in their home country.

Most of Texas' problems are because of illegal immigration. We are being overrun. Of course we have low ratings for education; many of the kids don't speak English. Of course a high percentage of workers are paid minimum wage. Of course we have a lot of uninsured drivers.

Adjust all of the data to compensate for the illegal immigration factor and you'll see that Texas has had a strong economy for several years.
