Has the American spirit of achievement disappeared completely?

no the vision of what the achievements are is changing.

I think it's a load of crap the democrats are trying to take credit for it like it was their idea. They all said it would create jobs.

I however don't support what we've come to now in the family structure. Two minimum wage working people can't support a household. They have their kids work as soon as they are old enough. How does it make sense that our first goal as americans should be to get a job and get to work. It's not to pursue your interests, it's not to have a family and spend time with them. It should be to work as much as possible and make a career success out of yourself.

Punctuation and spacing would help you loads better, to make people understand what you are arguing. I've read that paragraph 3 times and you are contradicting yourself twice.

2 out of 3 reads, or twice each read.

Pubs should still hammer home the micro affects which is it that it is an incentive not to work.
Here is the deal. I don't care if people want to work. Or not. I have no desire to force people into labor. Zip. Nada. Zilch.

HOWEVER! I don't think the taxpayer (disguised as an insurance payer) should have to shoulder the burden of that person's choice.

Being poor, lazy, shiftless is a perfectly viable option. I don't consider it indicative of one's character. It's their choice. I just don't think it's moral imperative for those of that don't make that choice... to subsidize it.

Every Liberal is, in essence, an 18 year old college freshman at a Northeastern Ivy League college who has Daddy paying for everything while they take classes on Marxist-Feminist poetry and have sex with whoever they want with no consequences while they fight the man using Daddy's credit card. That is Liberalism in a nutshell and, for them, it is the essence of salvation. And, they want everyone to have the same experience and promote their "religion" with missionary zeal trying to convert the whole world.

It is disgusting.


This sounds pretty appealing to me. If I could have the aforementioned things I'd be liberal too...

Min wage folks shouldn't be having kids. We can't subsidize poor life choices.

You can actually do pretty well if you know the rules.
