I just knew that @MAJ Andrew Fishkin would dismiss this report simply because of its source. He reminds me of the people who pooh-pooh Dear Abby letters as fake. After all, no one could be that stupid, could they? Well, just march yourself out there and ask. See the responses you get then provide your proof that Bill O'Reilly makes up everything. Take yourself off to a shopping mall or college campus and solicit signatures on a petition to ban dihydrogen monoxide, or rescind the Bill of Rights. These should prove most illuminating as well. How about asking people to name the three branches of government or their Representative to Congress.

I have seen the interviewers with my own eyes CPT and words fail me at times when I hear some of the answers. They are not all like that but an alarming number are! As far as I'm concerned there should be no "free stuff", there's plenty of work to be done that would earn those in need the vouchers for living expenses (shelter, food, heat, light, etc). I could go right off here but I better shut up now....You know where I stand!

Dihydrogen monoxide!!!! LOL! Part of what amuses me about that is that there are people out there who will start carrying on about what a risk this pernicious molecule represents to our vegetable gardens.

I DONT CARE WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT THE BEES! I am going to keep using Dihydrogen monoxide in my yard and garden!!!!! The spiders and ants can just TAKE THAT!!!!

I am reminded of some sage words by a Democratic President whose ideology was far removed from the Democratic extreme left-wing agenda of today.

"Ask not, what your Country can do for you"....

Ask what, you can do for your Country"....

SFC Joseph McCausland I remember as a young lad hearing that speech. Today that answer to the latter might be: 'I will accept free stuff from the government, to keep the economy going, ya know?'

There is nothing like the "I Want It Free" generation, CPO Andy Carrillo, MS! When I was a teenager I asked my dad if I could have a car, "sure you can, son" was his reply. That weekend he took me out to look at cars. I finally found a car I liked so my dad, the salesmen, and I went into the office to negotiate the sale. To make a long story short, the salesmen pulled out the paperwork and started asking my dad about his employement. My dad looked at the salesmen and told him he was employed by the Grand Trunk Railroad, but that he wasn't buying the car, I was. The air went out of my balloon in seconds. I looked at my dad and said, "I don't have a job. I thought you were buying it for me?" No, he said and got up and walked to his car. Once in the car I asked my dad, "what that was all about?" He said, "that's about life. No job, no money, no car!" I learned that if I wanted something I had to work for it. There were no give me's or free stuff!
