Blah blah
The welfare system INTENTIONALLY pits "rich" against "poor". This allows one sham political party to blame the rich while the other sham political party blames the poor. Keep the people divided and blaming each other and the fleecing can go on forever. Only when we see beyond the intentional, government-generated factionalization of the people will we be able to reform the nation.
The problem is GOVERNMENT and the special interests that control it. Not the poor. Indeed, the "poor" as a class did not even exist until government created it. Poverty was a transitional condition that most people went through at some point in their lives on their way to what was "rich" by comparison to any other time or place on earth. But by manipulating the driving forces of envy and anger, and using the tax code, welfare, and other coercive programs, government was able to divide the people in to classes of "rich" and "poor" and to set those classes against each other.
Whenever someone tries to blame a class of people for our problems, you KNOW they are a political party shill or are under the spell. This is how you can see through Glenn Beck. He never questions the basic power of government, only the PEOPLE who are running it or taking the benefits.
