I would very much prefer you guys to make your comments without addressing ME specifically. If you think the country is doomed or experiencing a rapid decline into Marxism, just say so. If I have a counter point, I'll post it. It is appropriate at times to make a specific comment, question directed at myself or another. But don't feel "compelled" (as in having a complex) to address a member with every post.

You don't need to address those comments to me, just post 'em.

The Government, the people, determined a LONG time ago we have a responsibility to those that less fortunate. That's why we have a variety of social programs to help them.

The Vietnam vet with the sign? He's an A hole with an attitude.
