Oh you're still pursuing it. You're just failing at it.

For the sake of argument, I will say that no you are not pursuing it. And quite frankly you are an idiot if you argue that a person who is homeless and hungry has any chance of pursuing happiness.

Not my problem.

Actually, it IS your problem , because obviously we can't get rid of all of people's problems, but the fewer problems people have, the better off society as a whole is.

The problem is, liberals - and by the extension the government - simply don't differentiate between those who seriously need and would appreciate help and those who just want to leach off the system and frankly yes we do have some boneheaded conservatives who don't believe the taxpayers should be offering any help to anyone, so we're stuck in the rut of spending hundreds of millions of dollars and not really helping people.
